Marne Platt - A Real Ms Career Girl, Author, and Entrepreneur Here at Ms Career Girl, weve been honored to have Marne Platt be one of our columnists.   Marne has been sharing her wisdom twice each month since the Summer of 2016.   While creating one article twice a month may not sound like a lot, let me assure you it is.   When you place that as an extra on top of all the other obligations and engagements of a working woman, it takes a level of dedication that most dont appreciate.   And she hasnt missed a beat.

Platt walks young women, whether single by chance or by choice, through the process of self-discovery and empowerment she went through on her own journey.
