Happy Monday, Mom-pire builders! 

On today's episode of Mama, Build Your Empire I have Lisa Zawrotny, owner of Positively Productive Systems, LLC. 

Lisa Zawrotny created Positively Productive Systems after a deeply overwhelming time in her life juggling multiple roles as a caregiver for her Mom (who had Alzheimer’s) as well as wife, mother (to kids & cats) and as a business owner. After being trapped in her own clutter and chaos, she took back her health and sanity through a combination of renewed self-care, personal development, and a customized combination of organizing and productivity approaches. The process was so healing for her and her family, she knew immediately she wanted to guide others in the same way. As a holistic productivity coach certified in time management and life coaching, Lisa helps multi-tasking clients remove overwhelm and embrace simplicity by decluttering their lives (inside & out) and designing systems and habits that reflect their personalities and values.

In our amazing interview, we covered: 

- The mindset of finding time to get organized

- Letting go of the guilt that comes from being strapped for time (a very finite resource) 

- How we can implement gratitude into our quest for positive productivity 

You can find Lisa online at www.positivelyproductive.com or on Facebook.

Mamas, let's talk money. 

If there's one thing I know to be true about this special needs journey, it's that money is a suuuuper finite resource. And it seems like everyone wants the same dollar. 

In this episode, I go through my process for funding my maternity leave by freelancing online and how I transitioned to business-owner. Stumped on how to position your message to reach your target audience? Get some clarity. Download the Non-Marketer's Guide to Buyer Personas and get unstuck.

Hey, MBYE Friends and Family! 

In this episode of the Mama, Build Your Empire Podcast, I discuss one of my biggest pet peeves that people do when I tell them my son's autistic. 

Yes, he's autistic. Yes, he's "not normal." (But what's normal anyway?) 

Yes, he's amazing. He's a survivor. He's simply Roman. 

At the end of the episode, I invite you all to hop over to the Mama, Build Your Empire tribe on Facebook and share what's amazing about your special needs child.

Hey, hey!

I’m getting a little vulnerable on this new episode of the MBYE podcast. In this episode, I chat about my failed business. (Yes, a whole business failed!)

Here are the highlights:

• How I started a business right out of college
