Mom Management Review by Evangeline Hanuse
Tracy Lyn Moland’s book, Mom Management is a great resource and a recommended read for moms who are searching for ways to manage their active lives. While giving great ideas and suggestions, she emphasizes the importance of creating personal time for oneself to better fulfill family obligations. She truly understands that moms typically put their children’s needs before their own and should balance this with self-care.
Moland currently resides in Calgary, AB, with her husband and two children. Before she found success as an author, speaker and consultant, her previous career choices ranged from teaching, business owner/operator, and high energy fitness instructor. Moland uses personal experience in this book to help explain her own advice with professional knowledge.
This book is easy to read and is chock-full of useful information regarding how to save time and how to deal with procrastination. The chapter activities guide and motivate the reader through the many goal-setting activities. Mom Management also utilizes creative tips from other moms whom Moland surveyed.
Moland’s proactive goal-setting process requires one to self-reflect and determine their desired direction in life. Moland rightly suggests that by setting the example of pursuing our dreams our children will want to do the same for themselves. She advises us that we will know when we are being stretched thin when we are sick, tired, or thinking negatively and it is time to re-evaluate what is important in our lives. From her own experience she spoke of a period of feeling lost and empty and decided to set goals toward completing a marathon, which she accomplished. Through this relatively simple act she regained her sense of purpose and is truly an inspiration.
