I bet you’re not thinking it!

My youngest daughter just tried out for the HS tennis team and made it. She’s still working as a house cleaner while also keeping up on her wrestling workouts and learning how to drive. ⁠

My middle daughter works several hours each week at a local taco shop, takes a few AP classes, picks up extra shifts, has a killer social life, and still uses some of her time to sell adorable jewelry at the local farmer’s market. ⁠

My oldest is taking summer classes, just got hired at the mom and baby unit in the hospital, kept her old CNA job as PRN, and still makes gorgeous wedding cakes each weekend for her clients. ⁠

Is this what you were thinking?

“Wow, these girls are selfish? They have so much going on, they are working a lot, have school, their plates are full, and now they want to add more into their schedule? That is totally selfish!”

I bet you didn’t. 

I bet you thought something like, 

“Good for them!”

“They are ambitious girls following their desires.”

“These girls sound amazing!”

Why is it, when moms want to add growing a business or reaching a goal to their already packed schedule, we think,

“maybe we are being selfish?” 

Why aren’t we saying

“That’s incredible, way to go after our desires!”

“Good for us!”

“Our ambition sounds amazing!”

It’s HARD!

It’s hard feeling selfish when going after a dream!

It’s hard questioning yourself in your motherhood and business growth.

It’s hard thinking that something has to be sacrificed for your business to grow!

What if it’s doesn’t have to be so hard?

Soft Place to Fall

Do you often feel like you have to hold it together for everyone else, that you don’t have time to “fall apart” or worry about yourself? ⁠ ⁠ 

As mothers, business moms, women, wives, we are like sponges. We absorb problems, emotions, tasks, responsibility, fails, and the “messes” of life. ⁠ ⁠ 

Like a sponge, we can’t go on being effective without stopping to be rung out. ⁠ ⁠ 

Do you have a space, place, or person in your life where you can land softly, and be “rung out, without judgment? ⁠ ⁠ 

Creating a place for women to have a safe place to land is just one of the reasons I help women in business have more! ⁠ ⁠ 

That more might be more support, a network, motherhood or business strategies, clarity around schedules, the know-how for their next actions, and business steps, or more confidence in their abilities to simply and strategically grow a business they enjoy. It might be a bit more money, more time for relationships with their children, or a business bestie to grow with. ⁠ ⁠ 

5 Things You Didn’t Know About Me

Did you know… 

1. I grew up in a family of 4 girls and 2 boys?  I am smack dab in the middle, although I am typed (have all the characteristics) of the oldest child. ⁠

2. On the enneagram tests I come out as an 8 and 1 equally.  I see myself in both numbers although 8’s tell me I am NOT and 8!  🤔  But @coachingwithjacqlin is very convinced that I am an 8.  Any 1’s out there?  ⁠

3. If I had to eat only one cuisine type for the rest of my life it would certainly be Mexican food.  If I had to choose one dessert it would be ice cream.  You can have almost every other type of dessert in ice cream flavors. ⁠

4. When I married my husband, the deal was, he could never take me out of Arizona, he had to mow lawns, and he couldn’t work nights. (I’m afraid of the dark)  Just a few years into our marriage I was living in Wisconsin, mowing the lawn by myself, because he was at work, pulling an all-nighter at the clinic. I didn’t get the things “I wanted” but I’ve received even better things in our marriage!  ⁠

Is It Possible to Create More Time?

There are only 24 hours each day. Depending on how you use those hours, you can create more, create productively, create results, or create nothing. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
If you want to create more time, ask yourself these following questions:

1. Is there a way to make the task easier or automate it?

2. Do I need to do this task as often as I am?

3. Could I hire out or do without this task in my business or motherhood?

4. Do I like my reasons for continuing to put this task on my schedule?

5. Do I like the results I’m getting from doing this task?

Did these questions make you think? If you don’t know what you are doing with your time or doing something unintentionally, good chance you’re losing hours in your day. ⁠⁠

Before saying yes to something, ask these questions first!

When was the last time you said yes?

Do you regret it?   

As women, moms, and business builders, we get asked to participate in opportunities every single day!  Before saying yes, or no, create a bit of space to think through how your answer might affect your motherhood, business, and other commitments. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
1. Is there room in my schedule for it?

If not, what am I willing to give up or do differently to fit it into my schedule without sacrificing the things I value most?

2. Do I want to do it? Why or why not?

3. Am I saying yes because I am afraid to say no? 
Are you nervous of what others might think about you if you say no? 

Here’s something you can say to give you time to make the decision that’s right for you! 

“Let me check my calendar and get back with you.” 

4. How does saying yes affect my clients, motherhood,

and business?
Is saying yes a win-win? 

Using these questions you can create some space, and valid thinking options to understand how your answer might affect you in the short and long term in your business and motherhood. ⁠⁠
