Nina Vaca: CEO, Presidential Ambassador, and Mother of Four
Nina Vaca, chairwoman and CEO of Pinnacle Group, began her multi-million dollar business in her kitchen with $300 dollars at the age of 25. She now has four children and is highly regarded in both the business and political spheres.
Recently, Marie Oliver of Power To Fly interviewed Ms. Vaca about her career, how she balances motherhood and business, and how she trains for triathalons in the midst of it all. Vaca is refreshingly candid and provides some excellent advice for all women figuring out the work-life balance or finding confidence in multi-faceted identities. One of our favorite quotes from the interview was:
“My whole life I wanted to have a big family. I hate that women feel like they have to make this choice, whether they should have the big family or have the big career. And I just went into it thinking, “You know what? I’m going to both.” The truth is there’s no perfect time to have a child. Your children weave themselves into whatever craziness you call your life.”
