In this episode of the Motherhood Village podcast, I interview Sheli Muniz, an Emmy award-winning news anchor for NBC6 News. 

Sheli discusses her journey from delivering morning announcements in elementary school to anchoring major news in South Florida. Discussing the demands of the news industry and being a mom, Shelly talks about the importance of having a support system, setting boundaries, and prioritizing oneself. 

Drawing from her own experiences covering impactful events like the Parkland tragedy, she underscores the value of journalistic duty even in the face of personal emotional toll. While acknowledging the rapid changes happening in the industry due to social media, Sheli reaffirms the commitment to delivering factual and unbiased news to her viewers. 

We talk about:

  • 0:00 Introduction and Guest Background
  • 0:44 How she got started in her career as a journalist and why she is passionate about telling stories
  • 2:48 What she learned since becoming a mom, and how she prioritizes things differently
  • 5:42 Getting clear about setting boundaries and what you are able to do for yourself
  • 7:18 How she takes care of herself to be able to cover the hard stories
  • 11:54 Staying true to her values when delivering news stories
  • 15:53 Systems she uses to “balance” work and home life
  • 18:41 What she hopes her children will gain from watching her work as a journalist
  • 22:59 Final thoughts
  • 25:00 How the positive, good stories offsets the tough stories we hear
