About Heather

Heather is impassioned by the plight of women going back into the workplace after an absence. Her interest was born out of her personal experience. Whatever reasons women choose to be re-employed, they share a common denominator - Fear of the Unknown—technological advances, are they skilled, how do they balance business, family and private life, economics of working and is it feasible.

Recognizing early on in her research that Fear permeates the soul of all women going through any employment transition - career change, becoming an entrepreneur or entering/reentering the workplace after an extensive absence, her solution was to let them know that they are not alone and that there is help available.

Using her on-line survey and personal interviews for her stories, Heather found the fuel for her fire!

Women Reworked , is an inspirational, empowering story book of exceptional women who jumped hurdles to achieve success.It is also a one-stop resource guide for women going through any employment transition. Heather's goal for this book is simple, no matter where you are in your life, with help and a fervent belief from others and yourself, you can fulfill your dream career or follow your life's purpose.

Heather is committed to associate her book Woman Reworked with F.A.C.E. (Family Abuse Exchange Crisis - www.face1.org. A portion of the book's proceeds will be donated to help low income or abused women become self-sufficient.
