There is something that happens when you have kids that is inexplicably, irrevocably different in you. Yes, yes, you love like you never thought possible. There is also this change in the value of your time. Your time away from your kids, your time with adults, family, and friends. Everything is looked at with a new lense. The meaningless become important. Things you didn't mind before become important choices in your life. LIKE that corporate job. Sure in your twenties you could go into an office, do your thing and hit up happy hour in the evening. Then you become a mom, a busy mom and your corporate job becomes a means to an end. And you start a side gig. You are working for everyone else, your boss, your clients, your family but how - oh - how do you work for yourself?? My conversation with Monica Froese from Redefining Mom was about just this story. How do you leave your corporate job for you side gig? Monica's story is pretty amazing and now she's helping others make the shift too! You are going to love this story.
