Real. House. Wife.

The purpose of Real. House. Wife. is to bring a greater awareness of what it is to truly be the consummate woman: wife, mother, and professional.

The book explores what it takes to be an authentic and fulfilled twenty-first-century woman seeking to embrace a traditional, demanding, but rewarding role.

This is a quick read to help women find fulfillment in their roles as wives and mothers! Strong women raised my siblings and me. Their impact on my life has been extraordinary and should be celebrated. But I am also a proud wife and mother who has worked with many families in a professional capacity.

I have worked inside and outside my home for my family's betterment; I know what it's like to be a stay-at-home mom and one who works outside the home as well. I believe deeply in the power of nurture. There are helpful stories and suggestions about caring dutifully for our kids, making and keeping a clean and happy home, and even some of my favorite recipes.

Women are the heart and soul of the nuclear family-an intensely powerful societal position. We have an enormous potential for positive impact: first within our own homes, then outward to our communities and for our country.
