I’ve been running a business from home for over 10 years now, and will be the first to tell you there are a lot of unique challenges of working from home as a mom. Are you a new work at home mom? Read on to see what those are. When I got pregnant with my […]
Today, I’m sharing some of the practices you should totally ditch in your MLM business. MLMs. Everyone is doing it, right? At least, from the looks of my social media news feed they are. Don’t get me wrong. I’m doing it, too. After swearing for years that I’d never join another MLM, I found myself earning commissions […]
I’m not typically a “how to blog” blogger. In fact, if you’ve followed me for awhile, you know that I really like to steer clear of all of the “expert advice.” But, I keep getting asked how to start a blog, so I really want to give it a shot. Umm…can I be totally honest […]
It’s finally summer break! I look forward to this time every single year. The alarm clock goes off, the activities stop, and the schedule clears. The kids are finally home.

Can I tell you a story about why I started working for myself? It was nearly a decade ago now (holy, moly!) and I’d left the traditional workforce to be a stay-at-home mom. Eventually, we wanted the extra income, though, but I didn’t want to go back to work. I wanted to be my own […]
Burnout. Ugh! If you run a business or blog from home, I’m sure you know the feeling. We all deal with it from time to time, and it’s the worst. Are you suffering from burnout? I’ve been blogging for a year and a half now. Before that, I ran a creative business through Etsy and Facebook […]
I have a confession to make. I’m totally addicted to Instagram. Like, I spend more time there than anywhere else on social media. While I don’t have a huge following, I do thoroughly enjoy making my feed pretty. Honestly, I don’t feel qualified at all to give anyone Instagram advice. I’ve had a lot of […]
Dear Business Owners, I normally try to be positive here, but I have something I really need to get off my chest. This post is geared towards you, but I hope it resonates with customers, as well. Whether you are a photographer, run an Etsy shop, a blog, or a network marketing business, this applies […]
