Well, there’s no way to juggle it well. Life is really hell for moms. Somebody’s gotta fix that but I’m tired of saying that I have found a fix because it’s not on me to find a fix. It’s on the world to find a fix at this point. The situation is impossible for us and I’m not sure how I’ve managed it to date.
I will say that I was lucky enough to be able to go back into performing after I stepped up to the board level of my company. I don’t think it would’ve been possible otherwise. I’ve been able to sing lead roles at major houses like the Goodman Theater and Chicago Lyric Opera alongside singers like Renée Fleming, and Thomas Hampson. It’s amazing. I don’t know how I got so lucky. To be able to excel and have not one, but two careers. To that level. I could die.
