You love your work
and are responsible for multiple projects and
tasks, you actually thrive on the multiple
deadline pressures. Or you are a wife, mother and
you own your own business. Your work hours are

hours are few. Vacations and social visits with
friends are a distant memory. Your only hobby is
your job. Standing tall and wearing your
Superwoman cape, do you have a similar
story? What sacrifices have you made in
order to keep it all in perspective? Learn how
smart women balance family and career while

sounds. Is the line between Hip Hop and
Gospel music becoming too blurred? Where, or do
we draw the line? Can
Gospel and Hip Hop co-exist minus the categories
and judgments? Hear from artists, executives and
spiritual leaders that have existed in
both secular to sacred spaces.
