Toni Ann is a dentist, but treating human teeth is not what she wants to do forever. Taking up her role as a mother, she was challenged with mom guilt working her nine to five and making less time for family. Toni Ann may be one with a superb professional title, but at the end of the day, she’s just like any other mom who wants to be happy–and that’s how she found blogging.
Toni Ann didn’t expect to find passion in blogging. There were some naysayers, but she took the first steps to get income to her side-hustle. Toni Ann continues to uplift moms who are also blogging or have a business gig while working full-time. The best part is that she has a community of moms who wants to be like her, a real happy mom.
