I was raising my family and working as an elementary school teacher. Every weekday I had to leave my baby son and two-year-old daughter with a babysitter, while I was at school. When they were safely tucked into bed at night, I prepared lessons for my class of nine-year-olds. Weekends were a juggling act of household chores and family time. I often dropped the ball.
My children deserved better, but not working wasn’t an option. The bills had to be paid. When I saw an advertisement that offered “Work from Home,” the lightbulb flashed and a picked up the phone. Less than eight hours later a stylish woman was sitting at my kitchen table. She interviewed me for all of thirty minutes, and to my delight, I got the job.
Not exactly the job I had expected, but it sounded exciting enough for me to leave my teaching career behind to sell skin care and color products as an independent party plan consultant. That meant swapping a teacher’s salary and benefits for a compensation plan and a promise that the harder I worked, the more I would earn. I seized on party plan as a second chance to be the mom my children deserved.
