Mom of the Month - Lisa Friedman!


It is so fun to learn more about the moms in our group each day in class. You are all inspirational women with incredible talents and passions that I am constantly amazed to learn about. Finding out more about one special "Mom of the Month" each month is a great way to be inspired all over again. I hope that each of you finds something new and interesting when you meet and read about our Mom of the Month. You may share a hobby, experience, or point of view that you didn't know about before, or you may simply think "Wow I didn't know she did that." Either way enjoy!

This month's honoree is Lisa Friedman. Lisa attends classes at our Yorba Linda location, and she was kind enough to answer some questions I sent out. Below is more about our Mom of the Month, Lisa!

1. Who are the members of your family?
Myself, Jerry and Skyler

2. What is or was your career?
I was a graphic artist in entertainment advertising and commuted to L.A. for about 13 years. Before that I was an advertising designer at the Press-Telegram newspaper in Long Beach.

3. How long have you been a member of Stroller Strides and what has it done for you? I joined in October of 2006 when Skyler was almost 4 months old. I was a clueless first time mom, so I learned a lot from all the moms. It's also been great for Skyler to have playtime at the park with all the kids. The workouts and doing the LEAN program have really helped me to improve my fitness/health.

4. What is something that has surprised you about motherhood?
How hard it is and how fun it is.

5. Favorite website(s)?
Ebay, Shutterfly, Spark People

6. List three current obsessions.
Running, diet coke, my roomba vacuum

7. What is your child's favorite thing about you or favorite thing that you do?
Play pretend preschool or princesses

8. Any tips for other moms out there?
Even though it's sad to see them grow up so fast, the older they get, the more fun they get.
