Work Life Glue

There are tons of myths about every job under the sun, but I think working from home as a mompreneur has possibly the most misconceptions out there since it is so unknown how that actually works.  Today, I'm going to be breaking down these myths, dispelling them, and sharing what being a mompreneur is ACTUALLY like.

It is totally possible to run a business AND homeschool at the same time!  I've been doing it now for over a year, but I have run my business as a side hustle as well when I was caring for 10 kids for 50 hours a week as a child care provider in my home!  If I can do it, you can do it!  Today, I'm sharing my 9 BEST tips for balancing a business while also homeschooling!  It's not easy but it IS doable with some structure, routines, and careful planning!

Let's face it, nobody can "do it all" but we can do a lot more effeciently!  I am a homeschooling mom who has my 3 little kids almost 24/7, plus I run a business, and I still do all the normal mothering tasks on top of it.  I get asked how I "do it all" quite often!  One of the biggest hacks I have for this is creating weekly and monthly rhythms!  I'm going to share this system with you in this episode!

Running a business is enough for most people to handle, but throw in motherhood on top of that and it's enough to drive a person mad!  Not anymore!  I hope by now you know that you cannot and should not "do it all," but most of us mompreneurs can't just start hiring people to take on all our tasks at the beginning as our business is getting off the ground.  In today's episode, I'm sharing six tasks mompreneurs should outsource today that are free or very cheap.  I'm also sharing some really unique ways to outsource or lighten your load when you don't have extra money laying around to start a team just yet.

When I started my business, there is SO much that I didn't know!  I would do things so differently, but ultimately, I would tell myself so many things about my mindset as well that would've made starting a business and going against the grain a bit easier.  I pray you don't have to wait 7+ years to learn these things since you are listening to this episode and this can spark and idea or give you some peace when it comes to starting a business in the beginning stages!

Trying to run a business AND be a mom who is juggling all the things for her family is HARD! One of the questions I get asked the most is "How do you do it all?!?" I have a few different answers that work together to answer this question, but one of the main pieces of advice I give is to create daily rhythms.  Some call it block planning, some call it a daily schedule, I call it daily rhythms.  I have 8 daily rhythms I follow most days that make it super easy to drag and drop both my business tasks and my motherhood tasks into different parts of my day that make the most sense.  We have a lot of flexibility in our days but also a lot of structure that allows me to get a lot done and to be very present in whatever rhythm I'm currently in.  I'm sharing my own daily rhythms in today's podcast episode to help you figure out what you could do for your own!
