Stacey’s professional background is in marketing and sales, providing high impact top line executables to jump start sales efforts and differentiate businesses. She has extensive software selling experience, earning multiple awards over her years in the business. Now, Stacey applies these skills to her daily life: she’ll never back away from deal making or a good deal even if it means spending money she wasn’t planning to spend. Her passion for gift giving, hosting, and decorating has made her a go to person for celebrating the ones we love – always with a unique, personal touch. While she is a dedicated daughter, wife, and mother to college-bound children, which consumes most of her time, she still makes room for her Craig’s List addiction and ensures fun is part of her every day.

Thip’s career focused on corporate finance for energy and pharmaceutical companies in Chicago and New York City. She left that fast-paced world to focus on her family, including fulfilling the role of Tiger mom to her twin boys and caregiver to her parents who live with her part of the year. Through serving on boards of local organizations and volunteer work in her community, she has met and connected with many amazing moms, including two with whom she’s cofounding Menu4Living. Unlike her peers, she usually has no problem saying ‘no’. With a passion for travel, Thip is always looking to plan and research her next trip – and the wardrobe to go with it.

Candice is a work-from-home mom of 3 boys. Sometimes her “work” is more volunteer work than paid work – she seems to have an issue with saying “no.” She has a degree in public administration with a concentration in non-profit management, so that may explain part of her problem. Her life is filled with taking care of and spending time with and enjoying so many people she loves who simultaneously bring her joy and frustration, including her kids, her husband, her aging in-laws, her large extended family, and her dogs. She often complains, but she loves this life and is grateful for it.
