Notă biografică
I am a young mom from Columbus, Oh. I graduated from Ohio University with my Bachelor's Degree in Broadcast Journalism with a specialization in Business. Not too long after graduating, I moved to Washington, D.C. to advance in my journalism career. As a 22-year-old from a small city transitioning into a world of the unknown, I remained ambitious with my dream of being an on-air correspondent for a top ten broadcast network. I guess you could say I was on my way, having worked for ABC News as a producer. A producer who got to explore the endless depths of television. I was blessed with the opportunity of doing on-air work. But, for some reason in pursuing my dreams, I felt stagnant. I always knew I loved journalism, but I had an itch for something greater. I never understood why I minored in business in college, I just did it. I questioned myself for the longest as to why I never minored in political science instead. After all, I was working in a city and for a network that inhaled and exhaled politics.
On February 16, 2019, my life changed forever. I discovered I was expecting. I didn't know what to do really. As soon as I saw the positive pregnancy test, I was in shock. I cried a lot. I feared the unknown. I was young and my career had just started to take off. I had to make a decision. I feared what people thought of me. I feared what people would say because I wasn't married. I feared many things. But, I never feared being a mother. I was in love with my seed already. My body was going through changes, but I found beauty in it all. The beauty in the late nights, early mornings and stuffing PB&J sandwiches down my throat for my midnight snack(s). I found beauty in my growing belly with the gentle kicks and hiccups I so graciously experienced every night. I found beauty in it all. I chose my son over my career and I haven't looked back since.
The most beautiful outcome of it all is how much I've grown as a person. He pushed me to be better, to grow, to glow. The stagnancy in my life no longer existed. I still work for ABC, but everything else I dreamed of doing began coming to fruition. I now have an upcoming clothing line. I have a podcast. I'm a manager of a record label and now I can say I'm an author. I'm not sure how I balance it all, but I do. I do it with the strength every mother is blessed with. If I had to choose all over again, I'd choose my son every time. I will always choose love over anything else.
I'm so excited to share this book with everyone. There will be plenty more to come. Mahnoor Ali is the illustrator of "Do You See Me?"
