Safety Matters Is Moving to WeMakeItSafer.com

For the past year I have been writing the Safety Matters blog for WeMakeItSafer, Inc., a company I founded to address problems with consumer product safety and recalls.  The support has been tremendous – 10,000 readers have stopped by to gain information on product safety laws, recall news and safety tips.

Now that WeMakeItSafer has grown from idea to reality, the time has come for the Safety Matters blog to move to its permanent home on the WeMakeItSafer.com site:  http://WeMakeItSafer.com/blog, where I and others at WeMakeItSafer will continue to follow the latest safety topics.

In my new, personal blog, “Cloning is Not an Option,” I will be writing about my life and experience as both an entrepreneur and a parent.  I know what you’re thinking – “Oh, great, another mommy blogger writing about life.”  That’s what I thought, too; which is why I have not had a personal blog until now.

So what’s changed?  Well, for starters, Safety Matters now is in good hands with my wonderful team at WeMakeItSafer.  But more importantly, I have come to realize there MUST be a need for MORE people who are building companies while raising a family to share their experiences.

Whether at a conference, a presentation, a partner meeting or a fieldtrip, I inevitably end up fielding questions about how it is possible to be simultaneously a mom and a professional – a CEO of a startup, no less.  The answer, “Get a cloning device.”  Since that isn’t a very helpful response, I have decided to share my experiences in a personal blog, in hopes that others will be able to learn from them.

I look forward to reading your comments and ideas on both blogs as we grow.
