Can you believe that she just gave birth to her
second child 3 weeks ago! So-- how does she do it? Aubrey sat down with me-- to share her advice for other working mothers!
1. How do you balance your love life, your two kids and
work? I'm a Libra,
so I'm constantly striving to find balance and stay there. That being said, I'm
the kind of gal who wants to fit it (life) all in, and everyday I try to figure
it out how to make it work. I'd say what works for me is being organized,
planning ahead and making time for anything and everything. At times my scales
get out of balance, so I just keep working to get things back in place!
2. What advice would you give to other mothers trying to
get back in the work field? My
best advice to other Mothers, who may be attempting to get back to work, is to
stay focused. When I decided to become a Mother, I knew I'd be putting my
career on the back burner, and I'm fine with that because there is no better
job than being a Mother...BUT all the while, I have kept networking and looking
for opportunities that suit my background, what I want to do and still work
with my Mom role. There are times when it feels like you're losing yourself in
this "kid" world, but don't lose sight of who you are and what you're
capable of. I've been blessed to have unexpected opportunities knock at my
door, so I'm letting them in!

3.What has been the best part of being a mother—the
second time around?The
best part about being a Mother, the second time around, is knowing that I
didn't do so badly the first time and now I get to "fine tune"
things! No two babies are the same, but I am more relaxed this go around and
also more confident in my parenting skills. It's also great to see my 2 boys in
front of me and know they will grow to be best of buds and always have each
other.
4.
What’s your next project? Honestly, my next
"project" is to get back in pre-baby form! After delivering 2
children in 53 weeks, my body needs a break, and I can't wait to slip into my
favorite pair of jeans from 2 years ago! So, fitness is at the top of my list,
but work-wise, I plan to continue working as a TV Host and Reporter and do more
segments as a contributor to television outlets like the NFL Network and The
Welcome Channel.
