Teaching Your Family How to Support Your Business

Being a mom is hard. Being an entrepreneurial mom can be even harder. After coaching families for years and being an entrepreneur with small kids, I had to learn how to work my business around my life. The challenge was gaining the support from my kids that I needed in order to be most productive in my work. My kids were born into the lifestyle of me having my own business. However, it was still very difficult to balance parenting and work. I learned early on that the best way for me to reduce some of the issues that came along with defining that balance and striving daily to achieve it, I had to teach my children what I needed from them in my work. This was a total game-changer.
When they learned what I did and why I did it, things got easier and peace slowly begin to fill the house again. When I showed them how to support me and created a rewards system for them when they helped, they were on board. After creating a printable to give them clear instructions of my expectations for them while I was working, my family life changed. I'll walk you through the steps of what I did in hopes that it will help you gain the support you need from your family and knock the socks off of being a mommy boss!
