Call Us Mommy

It’s been a minute since we caught up with you and it feels like there is a lot to share, so come wit with us as we share where Tianna is with her social media break, where Ariel is with homeschooling and her career, and what we’ve learned from what the last several months has brought us. 

The goal of these catch-up episodes is to open our lives up to you so you know where we’re coming from, what we’ve experienced and the current seasons we’re in. We hope these episodes help you feel seen. No matter the season you’re in, you’re not alone!

Join our mom group chat to hear from 4 different motherhood seasons and experiences. We invited two moms joining us to talk through limits in motherhood (and life in general) and how it can create mom guilt, how we overcome feeling like hitting limits is our fault (spoiler, it's not) and for a few of these moms, how being social media influencers influences their motherhood. 

The two moms joining the conversation today are Kelsey Chapman and Brie Matthews. Both of these ladies are new mamas, best friends and self-employed, business building women. They know exactly what it's like for their life to get hit with postpartum and have to re-discover who they are after entering motherhood.

Join us as we each share 5 things we learned from our 20’s and will carry into our 30’s. We talk about what it looked like to spend our 20’s in motherhood and what we wish we knew sooner. As Tianna enters her 30’s this week, it’s a perfect time to recall all the things life has taught us so far. Happy birthday Tianna and we’re looking forward to entering a new decade together!

Join Ariel + Tianna as we sit down with Kristi to talk about what working from home looks like for her, how the Virtual Assistant world got her there and her journey along the way. Kristi came from a comfy corporate job and decided during her pregnancy that she needed a change. She stumbled on Laptop + Littles and the lightbulb went off. She knew the Virtual Assistant role would take her where she wanted to go and she was determined to get there before having to return from maternity leave. 

Kristi shares what those initial months looked like fresh in the Virtual Assistant role, taking on her first clients, cutting back on clients when her season of life demanded it, the imposter syndrome that can creep in...and how to navigate it all. 

We love Kristi's story and seeing her thrive in her career now that she has taken control of it. Something we believe any mom can do with the right support.

Join Ariel and Zarod as we sit down to share OTHER people's marriage advice and our thoughts on how well it's worked for us and what we wish we actually knew when we got married at 21 after being highschool sweethearts. Our marriage isn't perfect, no one's is but you can definitely learn from everyone's marriage and we hope you can learn something from ours in this episode. Be prepared to laugh with us, for some potential Bluey in the background (sorry, 4 kids) and for us doing our best to explain how we've made our marriage work the last 10 years.

Hopefully in this episode, you can find something to encourage you in your motherhood, something to relate to and maybe even laugh at (even if it's at us).

Do you feel like working a traditional 9-5 supports your motherhood? Do you ever have to fit your motherhood around your work and not the other way around? 

If so, join us for todays conversation with one of our friends and  very first students to talk about how we’ve experienced the lack of support from the way our traditional workforce  is set up, not supporting women in motherhood. 

Tatelyn is not just a friend and former student but now a coach for Laptop + Littles, helping us lead other women to create a motherhood that works for them. 

Tatelyn went from an ideal job in the 9-5 world that she had to fit her kids lives and schedules around… to working how and when she wants, around her kids lives and schedules. She shares it all in todays episode!

Some of the things that are hard about motherhood, we simply can't change. The newborn no sleep season, the exhausted new mom season, the getting used to your body again season, surging hormones season, toddlerhood, fighting siblings, potty training, regulating emotions... there are so many things that we just have to go through as moms. 

But there are some hard things we can change, or at least make easier, when we make changes to take control of our motherhood. We've done this by choosing to find ways to work from home, which has allowed us to take back control of a lot of things in our motherhood, like spending intentional time with our kids, having money for date nights, having control over your family's routine, working with people you enjoy, making extra money, etc. 

In today's podcast episode, we sit down with fellow mama (of 2!) Kayla Hoffmeier, who we met back in 2020 before she started her Virtual Assistant career. She's recently welcomed her son, the newest additional to her family, and shares how life has been since she made the change in her career 3 years ago. Join us for our conversation with Kayla if you're looking for some encouragement in your motherhood or need some motivation to take steps to even just start making goals to get you where you want to be!
