Working Girl Meghan Markle on How to Achieve Work Life balance

Achieving Work Life Balance is a Challenge Even for Meghan, Duchess of Sussex  For Duchess Meghan, life is about balancing all of her competing interests with her family, her friends her community, and her work. Like many of us, achieving work-life balance is sometimes difficult, even for the Duchess who, unlike many of us, admittedly has a lot of resources at her disposal to help keep her on track. Even with all her resources, there are times when Duchess Meghan feels a little bit overwhelmed. But here are some of the things she does to try to achieve work-life balance: 1. She prioritizes her family life first of all. Meghan realizes that at the end of the day, no one is going to ask her how many hours per week she worked during her life. It is about the health and happiness of her family. So she first sets her priorities by keeping this in mind. She loves her work and she is dedicated to trying to do her best to make a difference in the world. But her first priority is her husban...

5 Ways that Meghan Duchess of Sussex is Just like Princess Diana

Meghan Markle and Princess Diana are not as different as you might think  1. They are both nice to the people who work for them and with them Princess Diana was loved by the people she met, and the people who worked for her. A recent book that came out about the royal family tried to brand Meghan as a bad person who treated those she worked with and those who worked for her with disdain. This is in sharp contrast to other stories about Meghan in the workplace, especially on the set of Suits. Suits was a TV show that Meghan had a significant part in for nearly 8 years. Notably, she lived at Kensington Palace for less than 1 year. In all the years Meghan worked at Suits, her colleagues praise her work ethic, congeniality, respect, self-respect, and friendliness. She got along with everyone and everyone loved her. This is not unlike Princess Diana. Everyone loved Princess Diana. Even in the palace, she was loved by the people who worked for her. She was thoughtful and considerate, jus...

A Day in the life of Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

MEGHAN, DUCHESS OF SUSSEX IS JUST LIKE THE REST OF US Meghan Markle Duchess of Sussex is more like the rest of us than you might think. She is totally relatable and down to earth. Today, Page Six did a story of her getting "retail therapy" amid "backlash" from "Deal or No Deal" "bimbo"-gate. In the article, they shared some simply lovely photos of Meghan wearing a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and a halter-top pantsuit with sandals. She had gone to a homeware store in Montecito with a friend.  According to the   Pagesix article: T he Duchess of Sussex wore a strapless green Malia Mills jumpsuit, which she paired with an olive sweater, an oversized brown hat, sunglasses, and sandals. She completed the look with a braid. Did you hear that? A braid! This is the first time I have heard of her wearing a braid; it is so exciting. I live for the day when she goes all out with a full head of buttocks-length braids. OMG. It is going to be epic! But I digr...

On Meghan Markle's Hair

 Why is Everyone So Fixated on Meghan's Hair? Meghan, Duchess of Sussex has a lioness's mane of hair. She has said herself that "I have always had a lot of hair." But her hair is causing some grumbling in some circles, so I thought I would address it here. Among women answering to the racial code "black" in society, Meghan Markle's hair is probably considered to be "good hair." Among women answering to the racial code "white" in society, there may not be a consensus about the quality of Meghan's hair. Suffice to say that everyone has an opinion on this woman's crowning glory. What is up with that? I have no idea. It seems to me that Meghan should be free to style her hair as she chooses but apparently, given that she is required to answer to the racial code "black" in society, she needs to put her hair in one of the acceptable styles for those types of women. So that means, for example, that she should not blow dry h...

Meghan Rebrands to her Former Hollywood Goddess Self and Her Critics Melt Down for Days

  Meghan's Retake of her Narrative Throws Social Media for a Loop So, Duchess Meghan has gone back to her Hollywood roots and her critics are crying foul. The former actress had left her Hollywood ambitions to run off to the UK to marry a prince. But somewhere along the way, the newly minted princess realized she was not happy and she and her prince decided to move back to her old haunts in Hollywood California. Before becoming a princess, Meghan had a website called the Tig where she showcased her fabulous dreamgirl life as an up-and-coming actress. She showed fashion, food, travel, lifestyle, and wisdom on her site. In fact, she even had collaborations with a Canadian designer, and she modeled for them, and she basically was just this beautiful Hollywood goddess in the making.  After she went over to the UK, they began to turn her into a grannie. All her dresses became long and matronly. The Queen even tried to get her to choose a beige or light brown wedding dress rather th...

Whoopie Goldberg Gives Meghan Markle a Tongue Lashing After Meghan dishes about Bimbo-gate

 How dare you Whoopie? So, apparently, the Host of the American talk show the View, a former actor named Whoopie Goldberg just gave Duchess Meghan a tongue lashing because Meghan confessed that she hated one of her first jobs as an actress. As someone who hated my first job out of college and would happily confess that to anyone who listens, I am totally nonplussed by Whoopie's judgment and negativity towards the Duchess. Why the judgment? Is it a genuine objection to what Meghan said or is she getting on the bandwagon against Meghan to settle old scores with Oprah? Everyone knows that Oprah has taken a liking to Meghan and everyone knows that Whoopie has always hated Oprah. Is this a case of guilty by association? So she hates Meghan because Meghan is friends with Oprah? I quiver to think this way. I have always liked Whoopie and probably will continue to like her, but I loathe what she has done here by joining this bandwagon bullying of Meghan and nitpicking at that young woman a...
