Sabrina O’Malone

Sabrina O’Malone is the President of Working Mom Enterprises and has appeared on the nationally televised Mrs. America Pageant as Mrs. New Jersey. During her reign she selected “Revitalizing the Working Mom” as her platform and was the first to bring a nationwide spotlight to the working mom.

Working Mom was established as a result of the overwhelming response to this subject. For the 36 million working mothers in America, encouragement and resources were hard to find before Working Mom. In it’s first three months online, the Working Mom website: www.workingmom.com received over 155,000 hits…just by word of mouth! This outpouring of interest fueled O’Malone’s passion to equip working mothers to be successful at home and at work.

Sabrina O’Malone has first hand knowledge of what is required to accomplish both. She is the mother of three young children herself, and spent over 10 years working full-time as a pharmaceutical sales representative. She has built a successful career in marketing since graduation from Rutgers University in 1991. O’Malone earned a reputation for delivering engaging presentations to Fortune 500 companies as a marketing representative for a leading insurance company. With unparalleled communication skills, subject knowledge and charisma, she is has a proven track record of connecting with an audience.

The timeliness of the topic and Sabrina’s subject knowledge generates excitement about the book Prayers for the Working Mom: 7 Secrets to Phenomenal Success. Sabrina O’Malone’s experience with television, radio, magazine, newspaper and web-cast interviews will make her one of the most captivating authors interviewed this year.

    Meg Wilson

    Meg is a regular speaker at her home church as well as other women's groups. She is listed on Western Seminary's Speakers Bureau. Having completed the Speak Up With Confidence seminar by Carol Kent, she is looking to expand her speaking career.

    Writing has always been a part of Meg’s life. After receiving her BA in Marketing, she wrote advertising copy. Having completed Jerry Jenkins' Christian Writers Guild two-year apprentice program Meg currently holds Journeyman status. She is active in two writers' critique groups as well as Christian Writers' conferences.

    As a follower of Jesus Christ since the age of fifteen, Meg has spent her adult life in many types of women's ministry. Her mission, however, was born of the pain of betrayal in her own life. After seventeen years of marriage her husband disclosed his secret life. Suffering turned all she knew about God into pure gold.

    Hope is what she found in the ashes, and hope is what she offers to other women as she encourages them to grab hold of the same golden threads of truth that she did. The Healing Hearts ministry Meg started three years ago at her home church offers help and hope to dozens of women whose husband's are caught in the noose of sexual addiction. She has also found that regardless of the brand of suffering, the answer is the same--Jesus Christ.
