I just looked at it and regarding this statement:

" What's your advice for those moms out there who are distracted by a relationship? How do you balance a real life with your dreams?

I never was able to balance. Each person has to make their own decisions. But remember, your competitors aren’t sitting by idly waiting for you to have a nice dinner with your significant other."

"Distracted by relationships?"  Some relationships are not distractions they are called marriages and being in love and if they are good they always help business not hinder it.

Sorry I just can't get with this comment-  as a matter of fact I personally think its pretty dumb.  If I have billions and sit at the table alone because I was too busy to make time for a "significant other"  Who gives a flip about the $$.  That's probably what happened to the nut Howard Hughes  Too much money NO relationships.

I'm a mom who believes you can have it all Family, Money, Peace.  

In December 1957, Hughes told his aides that he wanted to screen some movies at a film studio near his home. Hughes stayed in the studio's darkened screening room for more than four months, never leaving. He subsisted exclusively on chocolate bars, chicken, and milk, and relieved himself in the empty bottles and containers. He was surrounded by dozens of Kleenex boxes, which he continuously stacked and re-arranged. He wrote detailed memos to his aides on yellow legal pads giving them explicit instructions not to look at him, to respond when spoken to, but otherwise not speak to him. Throughout this period, Hughes sat fixated in his chair, often naked, continuously watching movies, reel after reel, day after day. When he finally emerged in the spring of 1958, his hygiene was terrible, as he had not bathed or cut his hair and nails for weeks (although this may have been due toallodynia - pain upon being touched^[27]). The Screening Room was located at Sunset Boulevard and Doheny Drive in Los Angeles; it was owned by Martin Nosseck and was called the "Martin Nosseck Projection Theatre" - Martin Nosseck was the full time projectionist for Hughes during that time.
