dM has been married to her high school sweetheart, Darryl, since 2000. The couple's children, Brooks (2 years old) and Vanessa (4 years old) are dM's chief motivators and her biggest cheerleaders. Their presence in all she does helps make her life both fun and fulfilling. dM's  experiences combining family life and home management with business ownership uniquely qualify her to equip other women to embrace the Lifestyle CEO choice. dM does not shy away from asking for help when she needs it and is a big believer in delegating certain tasks so she can focus on the big picture. She and her family are pictured at left with Lindsey, one of their Family Helpers. The Lifestyle CEO would not exist without the help and support of Lindsey and other family helpers, including Shari pictured below. 

A Message From dM

"While my husband, children and extended family members are a great source of encouragement and support, it's the hundreds of members of the Handmade Beauty Network around the world, and the subscribers to HBN's weekly newsletter who are the real inspiration for the Lifestyle CEO. HBN members are the brightest and most creative Lifestyle CEOs on the planet and you can access their high quality products and services using HBN's Online Directory.

Before HBN, there was my lifelong desire to experience marriage and motherhood. When the time was right, I married the man I love and embarked on this exciting journey. It's not always easy. In fact, it's usually quite challenging and often just plain difficult. But it is infinitely rewarding to be of service to others from my home where my husband and I can equip our children to be Lifestyle CEOs, and encourage each other to maximize our full potential as parents and business owners. How can I be of service?"
