Balance work and life, this is the unicorn we are always chasing. While there aren’t any perfect solutions, we can work towards better days.
It is frustrating trying to balance work and life, especially for a work from home and homeschool mom. We have our work from home mom jobs, teaching our kids something, and just regular mom life things. It is a lot.

Are you tired before the day even starts? You wake up at four in the morning with your to do list marching around in your head. It might be time for a mental-load detox.
The mental-load is exhausting because it is not just about what you do. It is about everything you are constantly remembering, planning, anticipating, and carrying before the day has even fully started.
Before your feet hit the floor, your brain is already churning. You are thinking about all the things that need to get done. The appointments, the work schedules, the email you forgot to answer, and of course what's for dinner.

Dual enrollment. I actually have a lot to say about it. At this point, my oldest son finished his associates degree, and my next two teens are about to start their second year. So I wanted to give an update on our experience with dual enrollment.
Between the three of them, they’ve attended six different colleges. So where do I start with sharing our experience with dual enrollment.
This post is going to be a review of dual enrollment—the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Parenting is hard, but it is also the greatest thing we will ever do. This parent guide is going to walk you through the hardest stage of parenting. No, it isn’t the infant, toddler, or preschool stages. The hardest stage of parenting is launching your teen/young adult kids.
Yes, I need a parent guide for it. Since it is hard to find, let us share our knowledge and walk each other through the hardest stage of parenting. The launching stage.
Each stage of parenting comes with its challenges. And I’ve parented every stage many times, but nothing compared to trying to launch my pre-adult children.

One question I see asked a lot from homeschool moms is how do I create motivated learners?
This is one of the biggest struggles in homeschool. Or at least it can feel like it. I confess, I’ve never struggled with motivating my kids to learn. And I am going to let you in on the secret sauce. This post is all about creating motivated learners.
So let’s talk about how to create motivated learners. It is possible, and I want to help you take the struggle out of homeschooling.

Hiring your kids in your business is a great way to boost their resume, teach practical life skills, and add help for those mundane tasks you don’t want to do.
I have a confession. Like all confessions, I will probably lose my momtrepreneur status. But here goes. I don’t want to grow my business to the point of needing to hire anyone. I know shocking. Every business owner is supposed to want to grow to the point of creating an empire. But that’s not one of my business goals. However, there are things that I don’t enjoy doing, and would like to delegate those tasks to someone else. And that’s when hiring your kids becomes the secret sauce.
I am not a tax professional the purpose of this post is for educational purposes only. I just want to let you know that this is a possibility, and you can discuss with your tax accountant.

Homeschool all in one curriculums are a work from home mom’s secret weapon. But they get a bad rap in the homeschool world.
If you want to streamline your education journey, save time, and still tailor education for your kids. Then let’s dive into the ultimate guide to homeschool all in one curriculum.
There are so many homeschool curriculum options out there. It is hard to know where to start. Then throw in the added pressure that you if you are going to be a real homeschool mom you need to write your own curriculum, do hours of research, and carefully piece it all together. I don’t know if you can be a real homeschool mom if you aren't doing this.
Mom, working from home and homeschooling kids is stressful enough. It is ok to use a homeschool all in one curriculum.

Do you feel like your previous homeschool year was a disaster? Now is the time to reflect on your homeschool life and determine how to make next year better…or at least avoid the things that made this year hard.
Homeschool life is challenging. I know I am stating the obvious. But there are things that can take you from this is challenging, to that was a complete disaster I don't know if I should continue with this experiment.
Mom, I think you should keep going, and I want to walk you through why you felt your homeschool was a disaster, so you can reclaim your confidence.
Homeschool life is filled with opportunities for growth and learning…for you and your kids.

Homeschooling moms are divided on this issue. We want to homeschool for the freedom to not be tied to our desks. Yet, homeschooling online opens the door for so many opportunities. What's a mom to do?
There are pros and cons to homeschooling online. There isn't a one-size fits all approach to it. You know your kids, their personalities, and what works and what doesn't.

I need to homeschool and work. There is a client needing attention. The house must be immaculate. I have all of these things that I need to do. How do you handle all your mom roles?
Let's talk about juggling all of our mom roles. You have a lot on your plate and a to do. You don't have the luxury of blocking out chunks of time to focus on what you need to get done. Maybe if you used daycare, it would give you a chance to have blocks of time. But if you are truly a work from home and homeschool mom, then your kids are with you while you are working.

I had it all planned out. I knew exactly how we would do homeschool dual enrollment. It was working great. Until the school changed the program, communicated very poorly on the changes, and I was back down the rabbit hole looking for schools.
College dual enrollment is exactly what it sounds like. Your high school student is taking college classes while in high school. Pretty simple.
This is a great way to get your student started on college while still in high school. When my oldest son graduates next year, he will have about 40 college credits. He will need one more year to complete his associate's degree.

How hands on are with your homeschool teaching? And how hands on do you need to be? I am a second-generation homeschooler, and I homeschool my 6 kids. I am going to give you all the answers to these questions.
This is a momtreprneur coffee. Basically, I pick a topic that has been roaming through my mind, and we chat about it. Throw your hair up in a messy bun and let's talk.

Finding time for yourself is the number one struggle for moms that work from home.
It is not that you don’t enjoy your kids or you don’t want to be around them. Sometimes you just need a break. So no mom guilt allowed here. We are moms that work from home. We can admit that sometimes we just need a moment for ourselves. Especially if you are an introvert. Your batteries will only recharge with alone time. But even extroverts benefit from alone time.
No, this is not a show about massages and pedicures. Yes, these are great in their place. As a routine, this is out of reach for most moms that work from home. This show is all about practical help for mom.

Has the panic hit you yet? Are you trying to motivate teens for the future. We are going to get into all that in this momtrepreneur life coffee because it is an important topic.
Throw your hair up in a messy bun and let's chat about life as a homeschool mom and momtrepreneur. This is the time we get into life behind the scenes.
I recently did a Q & A. It was about high school transcripts, but in the group someone asked how do motivate teens for the future. I felt like this question needed more time and space, then I could give for that time frame. So I decided to answer in a coffee chat.
I am running the gambit of every age group—from toddler to teen. It is a constant reminder of how quickly kids grow up.

The toughest part of homeschooling is choosing your homeschool curriculum. The right or wrong curriculum will have the greatest impact on your homeschool year.
There is good news. If you pick the wrong curriculum, you just change it up for the next year. When you pick the right homeschool curriculum, you can hear the angels sing.

It isn't easy getting your kids to help around the house, especially at the beginning. It does require checking their work and having them fix their work.
A lot of parenting, no matter what you are doing, is simply being consistent with whatever you are doing. Whether you are being consistent with rules or expectations you have. It all comes down to being consistent.
With their chores, we set the expectation and then we showed them how to meet it. Then we followed up on it.
Create a list, have clear expectations for them, and follow through on it.

Do you dread the thought of teaching art for homeschool? Are you feeling like you aren’t creative enough or you don’t have the skill? You can add art to your homeschool, even if you aren’t an artist.
We are homeschool moms, so we are supposed to be amazing at teaching our kids and giving them experiences. All while working from home. You’re a super mom.
Let’s face it. There are certain subjects that we just hate to teach. Chemistry and algebra get me every time. We know we want to give our kids the best, well-rounded education, but our own lack makes it feel impossible.
Art doesn't need to be one of those subjects you avoid. You can easily add art to your homeschool without being an artist.

You don’t need to pack everything you see on Pinterest in your mommy to be hospital bag.
August is the most popular month for births. We can blame it on the long winter months. Since hospital stays are right around the corner, let’s talk about what you actually need in your mommy to be hospital bag.
One of my biggest peeves, is the long lists for labor and delivery because it is so unnecessary to pack your house for a two night stay.
As a mom of 6 working from home, I understand the need for efficiency. I’ve had a lot of practice packing my labor and delivery bag. So let’s call this the practical or sane mommy to be hospital bag list.

Welcome to this week's momtreprenuer life coffee chat. This is the time we pull back the curtain on life as a work from home mom and homeschool mom. It is the good the bad and the ugly.
I've been a successful virtual assistant and homeschool mom for almost 10 years.

Summer break and work from home can really be a mixed bag of emotions. Your excited that the schoolwork is finally done. You finished the year, good or bad, it is done. But then there is trepidation wondering what you are going to do with the kids all summer long. You are still working. Then you are back to relief because you get a break from grading. You no longer need to remind them to do their schoolwork.
Then you are back to dread because you need to figure how to balance summer break and work from home.
By goal is to empower moms to work from home and homeschool confidently. That means we need to talk about more than just how amazing and perfect our kids are. We know they are. It means we need to talk about the hard parts too.

We've been sold a lie. If you are following your dream, then all will be right with your life.
That is a lot of pressure to place on a tiny idea. Following your dream or passion comes with the promise that you will love what you do. But what if your passion doesn't pay the bills?
What happens when you follow your dream, but it doesn't deliver on the promise?

If you want to jump into the world of homeschool mom and momtrepreneur, then you don't want to miss this interview with Kelsey from Wife Teacher Mommy.
I am excited to have Kelsey Sorenson on the show from Wife Teacher Mommy. She is sharing her story of how she ended up as an accidental entrepreneur. She started out cobbling together different ideas—substitute teaching, giving guitar lessons, and a teachers pay teachers store. Now she is hosting the Educate and Rejuvenate summit, which saw 3,000 in attendance the first year.
You are going to be inspired by her story. I love sharing stories of moms who define success on their own terms and break the status quo.

The struggle against these cultural norms is real. But you can be a rebel mom and create a different legacy for you and your kids.
Yes, I know what you are thinking (because I’ve thought the same thoughts). Is working from home hard? What business can I start? Can I really make money? On and on the questions go. Tumbling through your mind like circus performers that just won’t stop. Here are my 10 tips working from home.

Do you want to be your own boss, raise your kids, and enjoy your life? Are you looking for the freedom of part time work from home? If you said, "Yes!" Are you ready to start your own virtual assistant business?
Mom, you inspired this website, podcast, and channel. This momtrepreneur thing takes imagination, determination, and a lot of thinking outside of box. It takes looking at how everything has always been done, and deciding you are going to do it differently, and on your own terms. This brings us to Part 2 in the our series: Part Time Work From Home.
In Part 1 of this series, Prepare Before You Take The Leap, we talked about 3 things to do before you venture into the world of momtrepreneurship. Now, for Part 2, do you have what it takes to start a virtual assistant business.
Spoiler alert. You do have what it takes, and I am going to tell you why.

Just think positive thoughts about the terrible situation you are in and everything will be ok. That is typically the promise made from those who promote the idea of the power of positive thinking. But are we allowed to just have a bad day?
As a busy work from home mom and homeschool mom, it often feels like you can never have a bad day. The kids are watching us. We have clients to juggle. We need to keep up the façade of everything being under control. There are no chinks in our super-mom armor. Right?
If you do have a bad day, then you aren’t thinking positively enough. Or you experience the guilt that you should have more control over your situation. Is it possible to just give ourselves permission to have a crappy day.

Are you looking for the one thing that will propel you forward to achieve big things? I am going to let you in on the one thing every momtrepreneur needs to achieve big goals.
Welcome to this momtrepreneur life coffee chat. Let's peel back the curtain as life as a work from home and homeschool mom. This week we are talking about how to achieve big things.
A lot of times as moms, we feel like there are bunches of ideas traipsing through our minds, but we just don't have the time for them. Especially, if you are homeschooling and running a business. Lack of time is a legitimate excuse.
The One Thing You Need to Achieve Big Things
If there are things that you want to do. Whether for yourself personally or for your business. Then the one thing you need is discipline.
Watch or listen to the full episode on how discipline equals freedom, and how we confuse the role of motivation and discipline. Motivation can only take you so far. If you want to achieve big things, then watch or listen to the latest coffee chat.

For this coffee chat, I am going to share with you 10 reasons to have a big family. It is going to be a lot of fun. So let's get into it.
This is a spontaneous chat. Throw your hair up in a messy bun and let's chat. If you have any questions, leave a comment below or send me a note.
As you may or may not know. I have six kids. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that I would end up with six kids. My husband, who is an only child, said two kids when we first were married. But we have since flourished. We were fruitful and multiplied.

Are you a happy mom?
This is the momtrepreneur life coffee chat. Where we pull back the curtain on life as a work from home mom and homeschool mom. We are rebel moms and there aren't a lot of people out there who have been working from home for a long time. I've been doing it for almost 10 years. So, I want to give you the tools you need to work from home and homeschool confidently.

The best way to learn is by learning through experience. But this is also the most frustrating way to learn.
How do you keep going when you fall down again and again over the same thing? You keep going by learning from experience.
I get so frustrated when something doesn't work right. I don't have time to figure out the problem. It's just supposed to work. But looking back, it is these moments that have taught me the most.
It forced me to look deeper into how things work. Start to understand functionality intimately. When you have to figure out a solution to a problem, that is not a quick Google search, you learn in a broader and deeper way. You come up with a 1000 solutions of how it doesn't work. And in the process, figure out how it works.

Dont give up. That always seems like the best advice to give yourself and others? But is it?
I know, I know. Dont give up. I've handed out this nugget of wisdom to myself, my husband, and my kids. Most of the time, I would say it is the right advice. I think we should finish what we start. But sometimes this isn't good advice.
I recently came across an article, and it was talking about how to never give up on anything. And the title caused me to pause. While I am a huge proponent of perseverance and grit. I had to stop and think. Aren't there some things that we should give up? If we never give up on anything or quit, then we will never change and grow. Right?

Blogging is dead. Or so I've heard, so how to make money with a blog? This is the question I've been trying to answer for the past two years.
It is never easy starting anything new. It takes a lot of courage to be a beginner. That is where I found myself two years ago. A beginner, trying to launch something new. I did all the research, and thought I was completely prepared for whatever came my way. My focus was on how to make money with a blog.
The ambition of starting something new also brought the launch of a podcast, YouTube channel, Rumble channel, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest. And of course my mom swag shop, my journal store, and homeschool resources I launched along the way. I was ready to take the internet by storm.

If your child has a learning disability or struggles with ADHD or autism. Then unschooling may be a good fit for your child's learning style.
I am excited to interview Julie, from Julie Naturally, as she shares her journey of navigating the homeschool world with kids who have a number of learning differences. She shares how she landed on the best way to teach them. So she can maximize their learning in a way that fits their learning abilities.
Julie is definitely a mom who decided to forge her own path, and I am excited for her to share her story with us.

When you start your virtual assistant business, your mind starts racing and in the jumble of thoughts there are so many questions. What services should I offer? How am I going to work from home with kids? Will people really want to hire a mom? And on and on they go. While I don't know all your skills and amazing talents you can offer, I do know one thing. Your skills in communication is something to leverage.
Moms are masters at communication. I don't care how many degrees you have, no one can top a mom's experience in communicating with various people at various levels.
Never let anyone look down on you for being "just a mom". I know there are a number of moms out there, who stepped out of the workforce and found it challenging to get back into it because of this attitude. The idea that it is not "good enough" to be just a mom is detrimental to the work environment.
Regardless of the stage you are at, you've accomplished a lot being a mom. So highlight the value that you bring to the table because you are a mom, and if you are a homeschool mom even more value you bring.

Work life balance is a topic that has been on my mind a lot. But it is an idea that I want to challenge as a rebel mom.
This is a pain point and a major frustration for moms. Especially, if you are working from home. You would expect to be perfectly zen every day, right? I find it is actually harder to find this perfect balance as a work from home mom because you no longer have the clearly defined borders between being in the office and being home. So how do we solve it?

Hey moms, have I got a story for you. I sat down with Elisa Fucci from Living la Vida Full podcast. She is a life coach for women, and helps women to have a better relationship.
Her story doesn't start with her coaching business. It really started when she was 15 years old, and she gave her baby up for adoption. This is a story of taking something really hard and turning it around for good. Elisa said, "Your circumstances don't have to define you." This is her story.
She shares her story of how her business was built from these broken situations that were healed. And the freedom that comes from not being a victim of your past.

Growing your business while working a full-time job is probably one of the hardest stages of being a mompreneur.
Many mompreneurs find themselves starting a business while still working in the corporate world. Stephanie and her husband are working to building their bookkeeping business, raising their two boys, and working a full-time job.
I was really excited to talk with Stephanie about the in-between stage of being a momtrepreneur. Where you are torn between the corporate office job and your side hustle from home. We get into all that.
She also gives some great tools that she uses in her business that are for small budgets. I hope you get as much out of this interview as I did.

I read a business book a few years ago. It ended up in the "this is ok" pile, but I wasn't amazed by it. The subtitle of the book always stuck with me though. It went something like this: a guide for women to make money doing what they love. The theme throughout the book was creating the life you love by making money doing what you love. What a promise. I don't think there is anyone who wants to work in a dead-end job the rest of their lives doing something they hate. This does not end up in the What do You Want to be When You Grow Up essays. But as we get older we realize that creating the life you love doesn't always pay the bills. Does it mean you are a failure?

I am going to tell you the thing that everyone is thinking, but no one is saying when it comes to your website. As a momtrepreneur or mom entrepreneur, when you start a business you will be doing everything. Which means you will create a website on your own. Here are 7 common mistakes to avoid.
This is always one of the first investments I recommend when you are creating your business. As a successful virtual assistant for more than 8 years, I've never regretted the time and investment in creating my website. There were definitely other things that I regretted wasting my time and money on, like bad business books. Never once did I regret paying for my hosting from the start or purchasing an easy to use page builder. Starting out these were huge costs for me. I didn't have any money coming in, but I knew this was the place to start.

Let's talk about the elephant in the room for freelancers—how to handle a client from hell (I mean this in the literal sense).
We've all had them. If you've been doing this for any length of time, you encountered clients that were difficult or even toxic. If you are just starting out, then you will encounter them as well. As an independent contractor and momtrepreneur, clients are like a box of chocolate—you never know what you are going to get. Whether you are a coach, virtual assistant, graphic designer, artist, or bookkeeper, you are going to encounter difficult people to work with.

Join the conversation as we chat through homeschooling outside of the box learners. Mom, you don't need to be afraid of the labels.
I am excited to sit down with Cynthia from Inside Our Normal and chat through what it means to have out of the box learners. She is homeschool mom of 3 out of the box kids and writes at Inside Our Normal. Her writings give families practical support to embrace each child's unique learning style.
In the interview, Cynthia gives a ton of practical advice on getting a diagnosis, picking curriculum, planning for future education and career paths.

When to start your first day of homeschool? Should you start on Monday? Start on a Saturday? Or maybe a Wednesday? You know what, it is totally up to you when to start your first day of homeschool.
However, I do have a few tips, tricks and suggestions from a mom who has been doing for almost 10 years now. And did I mention, I am a second-generation homeschooler.

This is the best advice for mompreneurs, work from home moms, homeschool moms, or whatever you refer to yourself as. There is so much advice out there it can feel overwhelming when you are starting your online business.
After 7 years of being a successful virtual assistant, I share with you the best advice I've heard, read, or learned through experience.
As a homeschool mom of 6, ages 2–16 and a second generation homeschooler, I wanted to share the best advice from my many years of doing this. From homeschooling kindergarten to changing curriculum mid-year…really it is ok. I know this hard to do, but you can do it. And you don't need a textbook for every subject.

Join the conversation with Amy Sloan, from Humility and Doxology, as we talk about all things homeschool and momtrepreneur.
This is a segment of the Life Unboxed that I created to have an excuse to meet other moms that are doing what I'm doing. They are homeschooling their kids and running a business, whatever that looks like.
Today I sit down with Amy Sloan and we talk the whole gambit—homeschooling, homeschool styles, how you recharge as a mom, what's the best business advice—we cover it all.
Amy is a second generation homeschooler and she currently homeschools her 5 kids ages 7–17, so we have a lot in common.
She writes at Humility and Doxology and she hosts the podcast Homeschool Conversations with Humility and Doxology.
Let's get into the conversation. This is just the cliff notes of our entire conversation. Be sure to listen to the entire conversation. I enjoyed it and I hope you are inspired by it. You don't want to miss out.

As parents, we all want to launch our kids into the world with the tools they need to handle every situation. From the time they are toddlers, we are teaching them to be independent—get themselves dressed, use the potty by themselves (one of my favorite milestones), feed themselves—the list could go on and on. But as they get older, we start to shift from the things they need to do for themselves to learning to be independent thinkers. Teaching kids to be independent thinkers and recognizing the trap of group think is an important skill to teach them.

I know this is a hot topic for so many moms. Whether you work from home and homeschool, work and school, or any variation of these. It is always a struggle to find the balance. Seeing this topic discussed in different social media groups, I've reached the conclusion that most moms have just given up on the idea of balance.
If you are trying to do all the things—kids, school, marriage, self-care, relationships, emotional well-being of your kids—and so much more. Then you recognize that you need to figure out work life balance, but how to do it?

Description
Most of the time, when we hear that we need to de-stress our busy mom lives, the advice isn't coming from a mom of 5. In this show, we are going to learn the secret sauce to create a less busy mom life, from a mom of 5.
I am excited to bring Alyssa Wolff from Your Unbusy Life to talk about how to unbusy your life as a busy mom. She is a homeschool mom 5, and she shares her best tips and very practical tips on how to unbusy and de-stress your life.
Let's get into the conversation. This is just the cliff notes of our entire conversation. Be sure to listen to the entire conversation. I enjoyed it and I hope you are inspired by it. You don't want to miss out.

Do you ever have those times where you feel like you hit a brick wall and you just need to take a break?
Grab your favorite coffee in your favorite mug and let's chat.
Realizing Mama Needs a Break
This past weekend, I really felt like I just completely hit a brick wall. There is a lot going on. I have a lot of ideas going through my head. So I realized that I need to adjust my schedule and take a short break from these momtrepreneur life coffee chats.
And we are starting school in 3 weeks. It is the realization that it is coming up, and I feel like I haven't had a summer break. So this mama needs a break.
Another Reason to Take a Break
We are hitting birthday season! We have 5 birthdays in the next 6 weeks. And I took them to comic con for their birthdays. It was a lot of fun. Listen to the episode to hear all the details and how I am going to work comic con because they want to go again.
The right after birthdays, we have our anniversary. Just realizing that I have all of this going on. Then there is some digital content creation that I want to focus on. I have a course idea that I want the outline done and start recording by the end of this month.
The only way I am going to get any of this done is to make room in my schedule. Something needs to be put temporarily on hold, so I can get some of this other stuff done.
I am always full of ideas, and now I just need the time to get it done. There is so much happening this month that my plate is beyond overflowing, so something has to give in the schedule.
What do you do when you hit a wall and mama needs a break? How do you adjust your schedule to delete, pause, or move things around?
I will see you in the next coffee chat in a few weeks. Watch the full episode for more exciting details.

If you are trying to launch an online business or an online presence then you’ve heard the word SEO. But you probably thought that is was too complex and confusing. After all so many businesses hire it out. How can you, a beginner web creator or new blogger, ever figure this out?

You've been homeschooling a while or you just started, and you've discovered that you got this. Yes, you can really teach your kids. You are sailing along on your homeschool journey. It's not perfect, but it is good. Then, suddenly, out of nowhere, your child hits 8th grade. The panic starts to slowly creep in. What are you going to do for high school? All of your homeschool comes down to this moment. Your validation as a teacher, and whether or not you messed up your kids for life. It all comes to a head during these years. Ok, not really, that was super dramatic, but you kind of feel that way. One of the important questions I needed answered was how to create a homeschool high school transcript.

There are a lot of things that can hold you back from starting a business. Things like services to offer, what should your niche be, should you specialize in something.

If you followed the Momtrepreneur Life Coffee Chat, then you know that I am in the creative throes of writing a book. And not just any book. It is a book that takes all the ideas of "the right way" to do things and turns them upside down. Things like chasing your dreams and how success is defined. It is a book that gives moms permission to be a rebel mom and not fit into someone else's idea of how to work and school.
This is a bit of a different post. I wanted to share a short excerpt from the book to give you a taste of what's to come. This is a very small excerpt on how success is defined. Enjoy!
Let's talk success stories, the reality of success, and there is no such thing as an overnight success.

Some of the most common advice I hear, when it comes to a virtual assistant business is to niche or specialize. The idea being that if you have more specialized skills then you can charge more as a virtual assistant.
Did you know that you can charge more as a virtual assistant without finding the elusive niche or that specific thing you are supposed to be special at?

You finally did it. After weeks, or months, or even years of planning, learning, and preparing, you finally launched your home business. You are excited to share the fruits of your hard work with the world. It is like being pregnant, you can hardly wait to see the baby and share the baby with the world. Your business is like another baby in your life. You built your website and so you launch…and all you hear is crickets.
Wouldn't it be nice if you launched a project and overnight it took off? I'm sure you've heard those stories and hope lightning will strike you. I read this recently and decided it was worth mentioning: Few things labeled an overnight success actually are.
You are free to let out a frustrated sigh and maybe even a tear or two. Let's be honest, you want your business to be an overnight success. You've put so much time, effort, and energy into. It needs to be successful so you can validate your efforts.

There is so much advice out there when you are starting a blog. But there is some common advice that is constantly stated, but rarely helpful.
This is the momtrepreneur life coffee chat. I am Jodie the Mom, a successful virtual assistant and homeschool mom. Yes, I have been doing both for years. Last week's show was about moms no good very bad day, so I've just been going through the steps that I put in that show. Yes, it has been one of THOSE days.
What is the one think you hate to hear, but everyone says it all the time?

I have a mom confession to make. I love to learn. I love research and the process of gathering and managing information. I have a great idea for a book, but I confess I am more excited about doing the research then I am about writing the book (at this point anyway). It is totally possible for me to stay in research mode and never write a line of the manuscript. And I would be totally happy with this outcome.
Tumbling down the rabbit hole of information is one of my favorite things to do. It is a trap that I am more than willing to fall into. The problem with gathering and managing information if you feel like you are making progress in your business or with a blog, without actually doing the things to move it forward.
Researching and managing information is like a warm fuzzy blanket. It is comfortable and soothing. It makes you feel like you are doing something without actually doing the hard part—putting yourself out there to see if you will succeed or fail.

Today we are unboxing our Timberdoodle Elite Kindergarten curriculum. Come along as we take a peek at what's inside.
This is the momtrepreneur life coffee chat where I give you a behind the scenes look at life as a homeschool and work from home mom. In an earlier show, I talked about why I am terrified of teaching kindergarten, I did mention that we would be using the Timberdoodle curriculum for kindergarten.
Why Timberdoodle Curriculum?
As I was watching my then four-year-old do pre-K. I noticed that he was more engaged when he had hands-on activities. Since, this is my first time actually starting homeschool in kindergarten, I wanted a curriculum that he would be excited to use and that was very hands-on.

I know it silly that I cried over groceries, in hindsight. At the time, it seemed like a perfectly natural response because sometimes moms just have a no good very bad day.
Have you ever had those times when the pressure gets to you, and you finally break over the smallest thing? If we are honest with ourselves the answer is probably yes. It was a difficult week. Nothing seemed to be going right for me, and it all came to a head over groceries.
Moms, sometimes we just have a no good very bad day and we just need to cry it out. Yes, it is ok to cry. This can actually be a really good thing. Crying detoxifies your body, improves your mood, dulls pain, and helps restore emotional balance, among others.

I am sharing with you the most exciting day of the school year—the last day of homeschool!
This momtrepreneur life coffee chat is a little different. I am out of the studio, and I am going to show you how we wrap up the last day of homeschool.
We are going to clear out all the curriculum and post it to sell. No, I don't keep my curriculum. It is the last day of homeschool and I am going to organize the classroom and clean up my home office while I'm at it.
We have to make room for new curriculum so everything must go!

This is a different post. I sat down with fellow mom and mom coach, Darlene Morant. We talked about living your best mom life and how she had to shift from her fantasy of being a mom to the reality of it. We talked about how she shifted, even her career, so it is more centered around help moms.
We get into everything when it comes to living your best mom life—birth stories, kids, best advice for moms.

For this week's coffee chat we are going to talk about how to go on vacation as a mompreneur.
Last week, I did not post a coffee chat because we were on vacation. I wanted to share what we did and inspire you to plan your next epic vacation with your family.
The momtrepreneur life coffee chat is a time to pull back the curtain on life as a momtrepreneur. As a homeschooling mom of 6, ages 2-16, we are in the middle of it all. This is a time for us to just get real.
Before we get into the topic at hand, remember to check out The Wild Ride of Momtrepreneurs: The Secret to My Success and What to do for Summer. We are finishing school this week, woohoo, so this is the perfect show.
Grab your coffee, throw your hair up, and if you are as exhausted as I am, we are in good company.

Summer is right around the corner. No more school, no more grading, and if your kids are in school, no more carpool (this was always the best part). As a homeschooling mom and momtrepreneur, I look forward to summer too, but I still need to work. So what to do for summer? We need to keep the kids occupied during the day, off screen time (but you gotta do what you gotta do, so use it if you need to), while you still keep your sanity.
If you are tired of hearing "Mom, can I…" or "I am soooo bored" or "There's nothing to do." Then this post is for you. I asked an number of moms to give me their best sanity saving tips when deciding what to do for summer.

Success. This is a word that I love to hate. And a word the occupies my thoughts often. It intrudes on my musing because I want to know the secret to my success. What is the magic bullet or the secret formula? What is the one thing that I can do that will launch my business overnight? If you are a momtrepreneur then you want these questions answered too.
As a momtrepreneur, your success isn't going to look like your mother's, your sister's, or the blogger you follow. You get to break all the rules on how you work and homeschool. You get to define success on your own terms.

Do you ever feel like giving up? Are there days where you've give 100% effort only to receive a participation award? Welcome back moms! This is the momtrepreneur life coffee chat. It is a relaxed conversation where we pull back the curtain on what it means to be a work from home mom and homeschool mom.
I wanted to chat today about wanting to give up. This is where I've been that past week or so, and then this morning there were a couple of emails that just felt like receiving a participation award or the consolation prize. It is never a good feeling. These feelings of it's not working I want to give up come with building a business and homeschooling.

This is one of those shows where I feel more than I have the words to say. Do you know what I mean? You feel so deeply about something that you hope your words can really describe the depths of your feelings. Mom brain and decision fatigue go hand-in-hand. It really is a cycle, a vicious one. When I first saw the term decision fatigue I thought, "Yes, that is the only way to describe what moms experience on a regular basis." And I'm not referring to too many color choices for a shirt.
It is keeping track of kids, clients, home, and everything else does overwhelm your brain. It can leave you feeling exhausted and thinking, "If I have to make one more decision my brain is going to explode."

For this momtrepreneur life coffee chat, I am going to share with you the worst business advice I've ever heard—you need to know your niche. This is a time where we throw our hair up, and we talk about a topic that is interesting, concerning, or something that needs to be addressed for a work from home and homeschool mom.
This advice came from a lot of different places and it caused me some consternation and turmoil. Thinking that I can't do this. How am I supposed to do this? It is not going to work for me. I was searching for something that was not within my reach. I couldn't grasp it.
The advice lead me down this rabbit trail that took a long time to get back to the path I needed to be on. That advice is to know your niche.

Will my kids be weird if I homeschool them? Or will they be friendless geeks? Will the only way they will be able to hold a conversation is to quote lines from Napoleon Dynamite? Socialization and homeschool is one of the most asked questions when it comes to homeschool.
I wanted to talk about homeschool and socialization. it doesn't matter how long it has been around, or how many people have done it successfully. This is still the number one question that a lot of parents still have. You know what that's ok. Since it is a burning questions, let's talk about it.
I am second generation homeschooler. No, I've never seen Napoleon Dynamite…although I hear it is hilarious. I do have 6 kids that I am currently homeschooling, they are 2-16. From my own experience, I can say that I have not grown up to be a friendless geek. My kids have not grown up to be friendless geeks either. There is a lot of involvement.
There is so many issues that my kids don't deal with because they aren't in school. Listen to the episode for the rest of the things we don't need to deal with and how we socialize and homeschool.

Do you love walking through the baby section of stores, and seeing all the cute and clever gadgets for baby? I always walk through and think, "I should have thought of that. It is genius." Or "I definitely need that because it is so darn cute." Because cute is the prerequisite for all things baby. There are so many fun, cute, and interesting things for baby, you can easily get carried away. Unfortunately, many of these items have an expiration date on how long baby will actually use it. They can really end up being a waste of money and aren't helpful for having a baby on a budget.

You secretly dream of designing your house like Joanna Gaines. Everything is white and black. It is clean and pristine. Let’s be real though, we have a houseful of kids that are home all day long. Your house is not going to look like the end results of Fixer Upper (as much as I wish it would). But as someone who works from home, you need to design a work space, you like, for remote work.
You broke free from the 9-5, so you can make your space your own. Make it fun, fill it with things you like to look at, be creative. However, you want to do it, create a space that works for you and that you enjoy being in. And it doesn't need to break the bank.

A couple of weeks ago, I gave a glimpse in the our day in the life. Well, what could fit into an 8-minute video. So for this post, I want to break it down for you. Yes, I am a homeschool mom of 6, and I juggle clients. Time is a rare commodity for moms.
Watch the video to see how we plan our week, the fixed items in our week, and how I plan each day. Also, I explain why I don't like all the goal systems, and how it is better to work towards something with small consistent steps. Get a glimpse on how I am writing a book as a busy mom.
Life happens and we need to be able to easily adjust for life events…like spending the day in the emergency room. Yes, it happens. Moms, we need to plan with flexibility.

As a busy mom, I wish I had more time in my day. Wouldn't it be nice if we could wave our magic mom boss wand, and piff, puff, poof, we have more time in our day to get All. The. Things done. When I first started my virtual assistant business, my husband made this observation. He said to me, “You are great at managing other people’s time but not very good with your own.” I was a little surprised by the observation, but truth be told he was probably right (don’t tell him I said that). But it made me realize that I needed to be my own time management trainer.

Welcome to the momtrepreneur life coffee chat. This is a behind the scenes glance at what it means to be a momtrepreneur. This week, we put together a fun video on confession of a work from home and homeschool mom.
The mom life is not always glamorous and there are just somethings we don't like doing. I decided to share my mom confessions with you. Getting up at the crack of dawn because I reached that age of maturity where you get up at the crack of dawn…even if you don't want to. Prepping dinners and there are 8 of us so that is a lot of dinners.
Walk with me, talk with me, cook with me, order coffee with me as I share with you all of my confessions of a work from home and homeschool mom. Sometimes we just need to try to sneak out, but it is not always successful. Yes, you will need to watch the video if you want to hear them all.
Share your mom confession. What do you like? Or what do you not like?

Mom, in Part 1 we talked about the different high needs babies and the emotional and physical toll they can take on you. In this post, we are going to get very practical on how to homeschool and work from home with a high needs baby.
Mom, you are a momtrepreneur with a lot to juggle. It is already a balancing act to homeschool and work from home. But add a high needs baby to the mix, and it is a whole different kind of crazy to juggle. #highneedsbaby #difficultbaby #lifeunboxedblog

Babies are cute and cuddly, and their smile and coo and melts your heart. They also cry and poop, and get gas. And then some babies are cling-ons, velcro babies, koala bears. You name it. The point is they won't let go of you. When you put them down to go to the bathroom they arch their back and start screaming because how dare you walk away from them. Trying to work from home and homeschool your kids with a high needs baby is not an easy task.

Here is a slightly different coffee chat. I wanted to give you a glimpse into a day in the life of a work from home and homeschool mom. There is never a dull moment. Here are some snippets from the day of a work from home mom, homeschool mom, and momtrepreneur.
From kids doing schoolwork to jotting down inspiring ideas on the go to the baby signing Friday because it annoys her brother. Trek with me during my day. Yes, most of it was spent in the car, but every YouTuber needs at least one video where it is recorded in the car. This is a real-life glimpse of the busy life of a work from home and homeschool mom. This is totally unscripted.
I tried to capture as much of my different days as possible, but the reality is that I have stuff to do, and it is hard to capture everything.
Remember to watch this week's show, How to become a Virtual Assistant, if you too want to be living your day-to-day dream life. You can support the show with coffee! I will see you in the next show.

Join a mom book club is a great way to connect. To be honest, I am introvert so joining a group thing is not something that I do very often. If I am going to get out, I would prefer one-on-one over coffee. So in a group sharing my thoughts is not my preference whatsoever. But even for me, the introvert who doesn't do stuff like this, really gets a lot out of it and enjoys it.
If you are hesitating to join a mom book club or you don't know if there is one in your area, then you can start one.

Whether you are mom of toddler, teens, or somewhere in between. Every season with our kids has its own kind of busyness. Then if you run the gambit of age ranges, you are always busy. Let's add to the fact that you are working from home with kids. We are busy. It is always helpful to hear from other moms when it comes to their time management hacks.
Yes, you are a busy mom and you know how to manage your time. Or at least survive your day. But sometimes we need to hear other moms' "ah ha" moments or "where have you been all my life" moments.
I asked a number of moms to give me their best time management hack, and now I get to share these tips and tricks with you, which I am very excited about.

Hey moms, let us pull back the curtain on the momtrepreneur life and get a real-life glimpse on what it is like to be a momtrepreneur. All the balancing and juggling that comes with it. Grab your coffee, in your favorite mug, and let's talk about how to work and school when everyone is sick.
I wish we could schedule in the best time to get sick. It would be really helpful to just write it out on the calendar. Then we can avoid being sick on birthdays, like I was, and just better plan it out.
Unfortunately, that is just not the case so how do you handle work and school?

Every mom has a war story…I mean birthing stories. And it is as individual as your kids. When you are pregnant and trying to figure out how you want to deliver your bundle of joy, it helps to hear other's stories.
There are a few things that I can look back in hindsight and think, "I wish I had done that a little differently." Not that I can change it, but I can share with you what I've learned from my own experiences.

It has been 1 year since I officially launched this blog. I first posed this question—how to make money with blogging, can it still be done—last year. Like all first year anniversaries, it is a good time to reflect and see what has been learned and the growth gained. I can only describe this past year as a year of growing pains. This has been an exciting and sometimes painful process.

Today we are going to talk about the 10 benefits of teens in the home. Grab your favorite mug pour yourself a cup of joe, and let's pull back the curtain and get a real life glimpse into what it means to be a momtrepreneur. These are spontaneous chats with very few thoughts written in my notebooks. Being a momtrepreneur can feel isolating at times because we are so busy. But mom you are not alone. I started doing these videos and now the podcast of these coffee chats to give you, the work from home mom an opportunity to connect at your own pace.

Let's talk how to crush your goals for moms. This is the time where we pull the curtain back on the momtrepreneur life, and we chat about a topic…or two. Life is not always rainbows and Skittles, so I want to paint a very honest picture of what it is like to be a homeschooling mom and a work from home mom.
Some days we have awesome days, some days are bad days, but most days are just pretty good. This is a place to pull your hair up, put on your favorite mom shirt (I'm a Mom What's Your Superpower), and let's talk. Today we are going to talk about practical tips to crush your goals for moms.

Throughout our lives we have an almost antagonistic relationship with sleep. As a child we fight tooth and nail to avoid it. But as an adult, we no longer have the time to enjoy sleep as much as we like. Sometimes if feels like a cruel joke. The importance of sleep at any age is crucial for a healthy mind, body, and emotional well-being. Last week we talked about growing a bigger family, so it is totally appropriate to talk about sleep now.

After taking time off from the blog, I had pre-written content and pre-recorded shows. So I could really take a step back and take a break. When I started my time off, I had really big plans. I do not lack ambition that is for sure.
The week of Christmas, I took off from all my clients. This would actually give me time off. One thing I know about myself is that I will run myself into the ground before I stop. But the bottom line, I was really tired and I needed to take a break. My husband finally told me it was ok.
Mom, we have to take a break at some point and we need to give ourselves permission to take them. Otherwise we will burn out. I didn't realize how tired I was until I stopped.

The goal of any business is to get bigger. Every business book, blog, YouTube channel, and podcast is designed to teach you to grow your business. But as you grow a bigger business, is it also possible to grow a bigger family?
Many people don’t think this is possible. That creating a business and growing a bigger family should be separate and compartmentalized. But let’s break all the rules, if you want to be with your kids and grow a bigger family, and have a successful business…you can. #biggerfamily #growingabusiness #lifeunboxedblog

Grading. This is the dreaded task. You know the kind of task you need to psyche yourself up for days ahead of time. And grading for 4 kids multiplies this feeling by 4. Teaching multiple grades, figuring out the right curriculum, and keeping grades for school, it can get overwhelming. Keeping grades is not my favorite thing to do, but over the years, through trial and error, I've found a system that works.
If you are feeling mom guilt when it comes to keeping grades for school, banish it. You homeschool because you want to tailor curriculum and teaching for your child, not because you love to grade. Give yourself permission to hate this part. I will let you in on a secret, teachers don't like to grade either. You are in good company.

Today we are going to talk about the biggest question always asked by new homeschoolers. What about socialization? What social opportunities are there for kids?
As a second generation homeschooler I've heard this question or comment for over 25 years.
Most of the time it is a sincerely asked question, but it is rooted in a myth.

I wanted to give you some honest advice from a homeschool mom of 6. Being a homeschool mom and momtrepreneur requires understanding balance. Not the zen-like balance of teeter totter, but more like the balance of walking a tightrope. It is not easy, but it can be done. There is probably a whole lot more that could be said on this topic. But here is my best attempt to give you some honest advice from a homeschool mom and mom boss.

I hope you are enjoying the conclusion to the holiday season. Winter, Thanksgiving, and then Christmas is my favorite time of year. Since I gave myself December off (I am a really good boss), I wanted to do something a little different. I want to share my story from corporate workhorse to momtrepeneur.
If you’ve read the About the Mom page (they say this is usually the most read page on a blog), then you know a little of my story. But I wanted to go more in-depth and share, not just the chronological events, but the thoughts and feelings behind the events.

For most moms, staying fit or getting in shape is usually the last on your to do list. Even when you have work out routines at home, it still seems like an impossible task. There is so much that demands your attention, and if you add one more thing to your plate you might just break it. Add to the fact that working from home with kids is exhausting. You are juggling a lot throughout the day.
Not to mention, there are so many temptations lurking about when you work from home. The pantry beckons you to indulge, the fridge cries out for attention, and the couch calls you to rest. It is hard to fit in work out routines at home, even those that promise only 30 minutes per day.

As moms, working from home, there are so many places to sit down. Since it feels like we are running a marathon every day, between juggling clients, homeschooling kids, and running errands. It is easy to think we are getting in enough movement. But you are probably sitting more than you realize. And there are some damaging effects that you probably haven't considered.

You've probably heard that reading is one of the most important things you can do. I've read that Warren Buffet said reading 500 pages per day was the key to success. So I had do some math when I read this. The average book is about 300 pages. This means that he reads a book and a half every day and about 600 books per year! So how to read a book for busy mom bosses?

As a momtrepreneur, it is not always easy to find time—between juggling clients, juggling schoolwork, and everything else that we have to do—to sit down and read. Like everything else it requires intentional planning and good recommendations.
At the end of every year, I sit down and stare at my overflowing bookshelf, and then I scroll through my Kindle trying to decide the best business books to read in the new year. I am not in short supply of books to read. And I'm not even including the books in my Audible account. Erasmus says it so well, "When I get a little money I buy books and if any is left I buy food and clothes." My library is bursting with books, but, unfortunately, my day is not overflowing with time.
Since our time is a precious commodity, we need to pick the right books to read. Here are some general tips on the books to read.

Do you need to be an expert? Think about how many times this idea has been told to you. Have you heard of the 10,000 hour rule or the idea of deliberate practice? Both of these ideas, among others, push the idea of expertise. But do you really need to be an expert at one thing or specialize in a specific field, or know your niche? This blog is about exploring outside of the box. Looking at different ways to do things outside of the typically accepted advice. So far we've challenged the idea of what it means to chase your dreams. We've looked hard at whether you need a niche. And now we are going to challenge the idea that you need to specialize. Sometimes you hear an idea so often that you accept it as fact without fully vetting whether it is the best idea for you. Specializing is one of those ideas.

Download your free Mom Boss 2.0 workbook and start a business without a niche:
Do an internet search and type in how to make money from home or how to start a business. You probably see a ton of results. Once you get past all of the "do surveys" or "get paid to just do this" (take it from someone who has tried, getting paid for surveys is a waste of time). You find one piece of advice common to all of the search returns. And they all say this, "If you want a successful business then you need to be finding your niche."
Let's challenge this typically accepted advice. Do you really need a niche to start a successful business? The very short answer is, "No, you don't need a niche to start a business." Let's keep going because I am going to let you in on my secrets of starting a business without finding your niche.

Writing on so many topics this year has really given me perspective on a few things: 1. You can define success on your own terms. 2. You don't need to fit into some else's idea of how you work, school, or chase your dreams. 3. As a momtrepreneur, you get to break all the rules. Friend, if all the conventional advice and ideas on how to start a business haven't worked for you, then you're in the right place. Enjoy trying some unconventional ideas.

This is part 4 and the final show on how to achieve goals for moms. In Part 1 we talked about zigging when everyone else zags, Part 2 we differentiated between goals and habits and dug deep into goals. Then in part 3 we talked about creating habits to achieve goals. And now we are on part 4!
I confess, these are some of the longest posts that I’ve written and I barely scratched the surface. There is so much more that I could write on achieving goals as a mom. Like I’ve said throughout this series, I was so frustrated hearing the same thing over and over that just didn’t work for me. No matter how well I followed the steps. I needed to figure out a system that is realistic for me as a homeschooling mom, momtrepreneur, and all around busy person.

You have habits. I have habits. Whether good or bad we all have habits that will propel us forward toward our goals for life. Or keep us from achieving them.
If you truly want to achieve your goals for life, the you need to look at the habits you've formed. Because habits are such a part of you, remember they are something that you do almost involuntarily. You need to really look objectively. Or get someone else to give you objective insight.
The good habits you create are going to be the engine that drives you forward.

When you hear the words goal setting what feelings are brought to the surface? Excitement? Expectation? Eagerness? Or dread? Trepidation? Dismay?
So mom, if you’ve struggled with the mom guilt of not accomplishing your goals and failing year after year. You are in good company because so have I. Let’s figure out a better way to work at goal setting.
Mom, are you ready to zig with me. Let everyone else zag, and if that works for them, great. But if it hasn’t worked for you. If you are frustrated and tired. Then let’s try zigging. You have nothing to lose, right? Zagging isn’t working, so what do you have to lose by trying something different?

This is the most important topic to talk about. Out of everything that's written—challenging the typically accepted advice on finding your niche, chasing your dreams, or being a generalist—answering this question for yourself, personally, and for your business is the most important thing you can do to be a sought after work from home mom. The question is: Why integrity is important in business as a work from home mom and virtual assistant? You need to answer this for yourself because this will impact every aspect of your life. For your business because this will influence the clients you work with and the people you hire.

In part 1 of the series we talked about What is a Generalist and How to be a Great Virtual Assistant as One. In part 2, we discussed the Generalist vs Specialist ideas. In this final show, we are going to cover How to be Successful in Business as a Generalist. It can be done.
The biggest obstacle I faced, when I was starting my virtual assistant business, was the idea of specializing. You see, there wasn't just one thing that I was an expert at or overly blessed with talent in. My jobs always required a wide-range of thinking and skills. And the question tormented me: How to be successful in business as a generalist? Was it even possible?

Generalist vs specialist is there room for both? Do you remember writing essay after essay or story after story that answered this question: What do you want to be when you grow up? It is a rite of passage for every elementary student to answer this question. Usually, the answers are superhero, doctor, pro baseball player, etc. But let’s be honest, what does a first grader really know about what they want to be when they grow up?
The conventional parenting wisdom is, once a child expresses this interest do whatever you can to give your child a head start down their chosen career path. Because we need to give them an advantage over their peers. So there is pressure to start early, so that the kids can specialize and become an expert in the field they chose. But is this really the best way?

Do you need to be an expert? Think about how many times this idea has been told to you. Have you heard of the 10,000 hour rule or the idea of deliberate practice? Both of these ideas, among others, push the idea of expertise. But do you really need to be an expert at one thing or specialize in a specific field, or know your niche? This blog is about exploring outside of the box. Looking at different ways to do things outside of the typically accepted advice. So far we've challenged the idea of what it means to chase your dreams. We've looked hard at whether you need a niche. And now we are going to challenge the idea that you need to specialize. Sometimes you hear an idea so often that you accept it as fact without fully vetting whether it is the best idea for you. Specializing is one of those ideas.

Grading. This is the dreaded task. You know the kind of task you need to psyche yourself up for days ahead of time. And grading for 4 kids multiplies this feeling by 4. Teaching multiple grades, figuring out the right curriculum, and keeping grades for school, it can get overwhelming. Keeping grades is not my favorite thing to do, but over the years, through trial and error, I've found a system that works.
If you are feeling mom guilt when it comes to keeping grades for school, banish it. You homeschool because you want to tailor curriculum and teaching for your child, not because you love to grade. Give yourself permission to hate this part. I will let you in on a secret, teachers don't like to grade either. You are in good company.

For most moms, staying fit or getting in shape is usually the last on your to do list. Even when you have work out routines at home, it still seems like an impossible task. There is so much that demands your attention, and if you add one more thing to your plate you might just break it. Add to the fact that working from home with kids is exhausting. You are juggling a lot throughout the day.

Let's be real, who doesn't love an excuse to buy cute clothes. And pregnancy is the best excuse for needing a new wardrobe. The downside is you will only wear those pregnancy clothes for about five months. So how do you get some great clothes without going crazy spending on the maternity clothes. Save your money for post-baby clothes (trust me it will be money well spent).
Two things make shopping fun for me, being able to spend money and finding a good deal. After 6 kids, I discovered how to combine these two things when shopping for pregnancy clothes. Here are my 4 Smart Tips for Buying Pregnancy Clothes.

All right moms. Let's get really honest. You know it's true, but we don't like to admit it. But sometimes you just have a bad day. This usually happens because as a momtrepreneur you feel like you carry the weight of the world on your shoulders. Like Atlas, everything depends on you.
Then it happens, something slips through your fingers or gets overlooked in the day-to-day melee, and you make a mistake. Or in all the beautiful chaos of what you do, a few things slide past you. And then the spiral begins, and the questions flow…Can I do this? Am I really capable of keeping all these balls in the air? The self-doubt creeps in, and we start to feel like we are failing at everything. The tears may even start to flow at this point, but can we give ourselves permission to have a bad day?

You are excited to share the fruits of your hard work with the world. It is like being pregnant, you can hardly wait to see the baby and share the baby with the world. Your business is like another baby in your life. You built your website and so you launch…and all you hear is crickets. Wouldn't it be nice if you launched a project and overnight it took off?

Download your free Mom Boss 2.0 workbook and start a business without a niche
The niche is like the magic bullet in business. If you are looking for how to make money from home, this will be number 1 on the list—find a niche. Every marketing and business book tells you to just find your niche and success will follow. While in some instances, I'm sure this is true, it is not a magic bullet when you are looking for how to make money from home.
In the previous episode, Finding You Niche is Central to a Good Business Plan, or is it? We defined what a niche is, and why it is not necessary to start a business. The elusive niche is not a bad idea or a wrong one. But when we hyper-focus on one idea to the exclusion of all others, it is a problem.

Download your free Mom Boss 2.0 workbook and start a business without a niche.
Do an internet search and type in how to make money from home or how to start a business. You probably see a ton of results. Once you get past all of the "do surveys" or "get paid to just do this" (take it from someone who has tried, getting paid for surveys is a waste of time). You find one piece of advice common to all of the search returns. And they all say this, "If you want a successful business then you need to be finding your niche."
Let's challenge this typically accepted advice. Do you really need a niche to start a successful business?

You've probably heard that reading is one of the most important things you can do. I've read that Warren Buffet said reading 500 pages per day was the key to success. So I had do some math when I read this. The average book is about 300 pages. This means that he reads a book and a half every day and about 600 books per year! So how to read a book for busy mom bosses?

This isn't going to be the typical advice on how to get clients. We are once again going to explore outside of the box . This is going to offer an alternative to the standard lists. Many times when you read posts on how to get clients, the writer offers a prescriptive step-by-step how-to. And it always comes with the promise that if you just follow the steps in order you are guaranteed to get clients. Which is always nice to hear. We want guaranteed success. But what if I told you that you don't need to follow a step-by-step how-to, that you can get clients in other ways? This is good news because when the step-by-step guide doesn't work for you there are alternatives.

I am all for dreams and goals that you want to pursue. These are necessary to help give direction and purpose for to your life. But I want to broaden the scope of what these dreams look like and what it means to be chasing them and pursuing your passion. Sometimes what you are passionate about just won't pay the bills. So it is time to rethink what we've always been told about dreams and passion.

As a momtrepreneur, it is not always easy to find time—between juggling clients, juggling schoolwork, and everything else that we have to do—to sit down and read. Like everything else it requires intentional planning and good recommendations.
At the end of every year, I sit down and stare at my overflowing bookshelf, and then I scroll through my Kindle trying to decide the best business books to read in the new year. I am not in short supply of books to read. And I'm not even including the books in my Audible account. Erasmus says it so well, "When I get a little money I buy books and if any is left I buy food and clothes." My library is bursting with books, but, unfortunately, my day is not overflowing with time.
Since our time is a precious commodity, we need to pick the right books to read. Here are some general tips on the books to read.

Every business starts with an idea. Whether you are a non-profit wanting to change the world, a creative business wanting to make the first computer animated movie, or a small business wanting to build a business website.
Regardless of how your idea came about. Whether born out of frustration…why can't a product be better or work like this. Or why can't I find anything for people like me. Or born from seeing a need and wanting to help. However, your idea came to you there is still a wide gap between inspiration and getting people to buy into your idea. Your idea must be communicated.

It never fails. Every time I find out I'm pregnant, I dive down the rabbit hole of the internet hoping to discover a little nugget of knowledge that I haven't yet mined. My mom always laughs at me and usually says, "You're not an expert, yet?" My search usually ends in frustration and exasperation because there isn't a whole lot of new information. Just a number of lists of things you absolutely have to buy. But, really, what do you absolutely need? I promise you don't need everything on those lists.

As momtrepreneurs, you may find yourself doing everything. Designing a website for your business, writing all the content, and creating social media posts. At least if you are starting out. Whatever your field is, you will find yourself writing. Even though we are so digital, you can't escape the need to write.
You can't ignore writing. But there is good news. You can improve it. Improvement never comes with a wave of a magic wand. I wish it did because time is limited. It always comes with hard work and perseverance. We can’t ignore writing, but we can improve it. And you are not alone. I will always be a student of the How to become a Better Writer school

As moms, working from home, there are so many places to sit down. Since it feels like we are running a marathon every day, between juggling clients, homeschooling kids, and running errands. It is easy to think we are getting in enough movement. But you are probably sitting more than you realize. And there are some damaging effects that you probably haven't considered.

Today we are going to talk about the biggest question always asked by new homeschoolers. What about socialization? What social opportunities are there for kids?
As a second generation homeschooler I've heard this question or comment for over 25 years.
Most of the time it is a sincerely asked question, but it is rooted in a myth.

As moms, we need to feel like we are winning at something, but many of the things we do aren't measurable by a completed task, so we start to feel like we are losing more than we are winning. What is a mom to do? In this show we are going talk about how to nurture those feelings of winning.

I am Jodie the Mom from Lifeunboxed.blog, and I wanted to tell you a little about the show. Think of this as the about page for the podcast. The show can be found on YouTube and wherever you listen to podcasts.
Like most great ideas it started from a place of frustration. I was frustrated at the fact that I couldn't find anyone or anything that I could really relate to. There aren't a lot of people who work from home, homeschool their kids, and run a business.
Like this gem of advice I heard: "Pick 2-3 hours of uninterrupted time in your day to really focus." I just wanted to say honey, I'm luck y to get 5 minutes to use the bathroom, and even then there are tiny fingers sticking out from under the door.
So there is a lot of business advice out there but nothing that is really practical for the moms. The focus of the show will encompass all the areas of being a mom from raising kids, to running a business, and to keeping our sanity.
