I had the pleasure of doing a podcast interview this week with Sharon McMillan of NewUrbanMom.com.

I met Sharon totally virtually, by communicating with each other on Twitter.* Sharon introduced me to the concept of “new urbanism,” a term that refers to the development or re-development of communities that are more pedestrian friendly, eco-friendly and business friendly. Read more about the principles and benefits of new urbanism.

On the podcast, Sharon and I talk about my experience growing up with an entrepreneurial mom, tips for mothers who want to return to their careers and suggestions for anyone who wants to work for an environmentally friendly company. The interview is about 20 minutes long. Hope you’ll listen in!
