The MTA approved staggering fare hikes and service cuts this past week. Subway and bus rides, tolls on bridges and tunnels have risen 30% in some cases. Travel to those interviews today - the hike goes into effect on May 31- happy Mother's Day to you! This comes at a most inopportune time as many of us are trekking into Manhattan for job interviews and networking opportunities. Comment in our FORUM and let us know how you feel about this less than fair, fare.
At Butterfly, we don't charge you a thing. No fare hikes here. Just free resources, support, advice and solutions. And, some fabulous inspiration! This week, as March gives way to April, we bring you a mom with the most infectious laugh on the radio- Danielle Monaro. As an on-air DJ with Elvis Duran and the Z Morning Zoo, Danielle charms the largest radio listening audience in the United States on Z100. You many have watched her Butterfly promo video on YouTube, Facebook or MyWorkButterfly.com as she is currently pulling in the highest number of views. On April 1st (and this is no joke) you may watch the first part of her webisode interview only at MyWorkButterfly.com. Curious how long she breast fed her son Spencer? Do you want to know why she cried when she went back to work after giving birth? Or, maybe you want to learn about her relationship with British hubby Sheldon? She is a +!@#$ on air and off.. see for yourself this Wednesday. After you've watched, comment back- Danielle will be logging in for your feedback. Stay tuned as we will announce any moment about the arrival of her new baby boy! For expecting moms like Danielle, Shari Bookvar, Butterfly's Resident Nutrition Columnist/Registered Dietician, has written detailed editorial on foods to eat/avoid when expecting.
