Mom Biz Solutions with Lara Galloway, The Mom Biz Coach

Raise your hand if your services as a mother were required during wee hours of the night last night...

I'm raising mine. It was a long night. Not one, but two of my children had nightmares and decided to climb into my queen-sized bed. Well, that didn't work. So from 2am on, my husband and I comforted our kids, tried to get everyone back to sleep, played musical beds all over the house, and had to get up this morning and face the day.

I'm sure you have plenty of stories about the nights of no sleep you've had. And about the days of work that were staring you in the face as you nursed that cup of coffee, hoping it would help clear the cobwebs out of your head so you could get all your tasks done.

On today's show, I'll talk about how to function as a mompreneur when you, quite frankly, aren't firing on all pistons. Losing sleep happens all the time, along with various other chaotic moments that we must handle in order to take care of our families, but that directly impact the care we're able to give to our business and to our clients.

All things being equal, people want to do business with their friends. To climb the ladder of success you don’t just need more techniques and strategies, you need more friends. – Jeffrey Gitomer
