Raise your hand if you are a parent and an entrepreneur! This week, I am going solo to talk about one of the hardest juggling acts in the world: how to be a good parent AND a good business owner. If you struggle with this, you definitely don’t want to miss this episode!
Tune in as I share some of the lessons I’ve learned along my own journey of being a parent and an entrepreneur, including how to set clear boundaries (so important!), the importance of knowing your why, and the difference between the entrepreneur and CEO mindset when it comes to this particular balancing act. I promise, it is possible to find peace and satisfaction in both areas of your life, and above all else, I hope you walk away from this episode with grace for yourself, for your family, and for anyone else walking the same road.
