One of the speakers I had the pleasure of chatting with at the SheStreams Conference for Women in New York was former CBS News Anchor Rene Syler. She gave a high energy speech Saturday morning as one of the keynote speakers for the social media conference.
The last five years have been rough for Rene. She overcame getting fired from a high-profile network news anchor job and breast cancer scares that led to a double mastectomy. Now Rene has found her own voice as an author and blogger, while working on the next phase of her career.
Check out her blog that’s also the name of her book, Good Enough Mother. Connect with Rene on her blog, GoodEnoughMother.com, Facebook and Twitter.
This was really a great interview. Rene has so much wisdom about career, motherhood, and life. So glad we had a chance to connect with her and hear her story.
Great interview! Rene Syler is so down to earth and filled with such good vibes. I love her! So glad you to to go to SheStreams Joyce. And you are right, Desiree Peeples did a great job shooting the video. Great job ladies!
Such an awesome interview! As I was following the She Streams twitter stream I came across Rene Syler and thought she sounded AWESOME! I am all about helping moms feel confident about living life on the terms that work for them and not necessarily everyone else. Thank you Joyce for this interview and introducing me more personally to Rene. I will be visiting her site and have already connected on twitter!

Thanks Mommy Reporter. Isn’t it good to know there’s life after TV news and we can have our own voice?!
Thanks Samantha. It was a great event. So glad I got to meet Rene and hear her speak.
Bernice, glad you followed the #SheStreams twitter stream. There was tons of great info shared! Rene is a gem and I’ll be visiting her site quite often myself.
