Hada María Morales works as a communicator for the State of Florida, providing employment information to Spanish speakers seeking work across the state. In her free time, she volunteers for an organization of women who promote human rights. She also raises a family in Coral Gables, Florida with the help of her husband Roger. In spite of her busy schedule she has found the time to publish seven inspiration and self help books in Spanish. Her latest title, A mamá le va de maravilla… y al hogar también (Grupo Nelson, $12.99) was just published. The English translation of the title is Healthy Mom, Healthy Home.

In the 171-page hardcover book Morales invites women to appreciate themselves, seek a healthy lifestyle and enjoy their home life. She shares her belief that if the mother is satisfied her husband and children will likely be satisfied as well. The busy working mother dedicates 35 chapters to outlining a process readers may follow toward those goals.

According to Morales, many women spend their time looking after their families, working in the unexpected roles of financial analyst, driver, maid, cook, lover, doctor, gardener and even become the emotional thermometer of the home. They take good care of everything except themselves and eventually find they are exhausted by the day to day grind. She suggests that women indulge themselves a little so that they may be satisfied and thrive along with their loved ones.

A native of Nicaragua, Morales graduated from the University of Miami with a degree in human resources. She works as an information coordinator for the Department of Labor of the State of Florida.
