TODAYS GUEST

Maria Smith is the owner of CleanExClean, and Real Bizy. They offer commercial and Airbnb cleaning. She also supports home-based learning families. A single mother of four, Maria admirably balances life and business.

She transitioned from being a hairstylist to starting her cleaning service. She started the business because she needed flexibility in her schedule for homeschooling her children with special needs. So for a while, she was doing both hairstyling and cleaning and tending to her kids. She wanted to offer women entrepreneur opportunities so they can also be independent contractors. 

She wanted to help mothers have the flexibility of homeschooling their children without having a problem of how or where they will start.
