In this unfiltered memoir, Kelly Cooper confronts the messy reality of trying to have it all—a big career, motherhood AND a fulfilling sense of self.
Happy. Working. Mom. is the story of Kelly's rebellious pursuit of happiness presented across 72 snackable chapters.
Dating co-workers, yes, lots of them actually. Letting her 3 daughters cut all the hair off their dolls (with real scissors)—Kelly did that just to survive a particularly long afternoon. Petty revenge on a particularly mean co-worker, yep, and she was good at it. Pregnancy tests in the CVS bathroom and flirting with hemorrhoid doctors, she’s tried that too. Kelly even admits to hiding in a parking lot after work so she wouldn’t have to go home and feed her 3 screaming children.
Kelly says the stuff no one else is willing to say out loud and it's in these moments of disarming honesty that she discovers a voice that is equal parts funny, depressing and revelatory. A must read for every woman on earth.
