How do I get time back as an entrepreneur mom?
“Alright, I can figure this out. How hard can it be? Famous last words. Maybe you can relate to this?
I tried having set hours to work on my business. With a newborn son, I quickly realized that wasn’t going to happen. Taking a shower was a major accomplishment at that point.
Wait! Let’s go back a second.
I had just left my psychiatry job and was hoping to rest. It was a stressful job and I needed time to wrap my head around it all. That’s when life took at 180. It was 5:30 am in the morning. My hands were shaking while I stared in disbelief. Clear as a blue sky, the pregnancy test had 2 pink lines. I was pregnant.
My heart was racing. “I am going to be a mom”. I sat there in silence and prayed. “Please let this be a viable pregnancy.” God answered my prayer. 9 months later, my son Logan was born. Seeing his sweet face for the first time, I wanted to stay home and be with my son. I also wanted to continue to help others and work.
I saw how powerful coaching was when I was getting coached from burnout in my previous job. I decided to get certified as a coach and started my business while raising my baby at the same time.
Picking up where we left off…
“Ok, that didn’t work. Maybe working early in the morning after his feeding would be a good idea.” Lesson learned: Social media posts at 2 am in the morning while sleep deprived is never a good idea
As time went on, I fell into a vicious cycle of trying to do it all in the short amount of time I had. The first year of business and motherhood was a hot mess. I tried to do so much in the limited time I had. I was exhausted, frazzled, stressed and overwhelmed. The chaos of balancing diapers and deadlines was starting to take its toll. I wanted to burn my business to the ground. Something had to change.
I refused to let this be the end of my entrepreneurial journey.
Drawing upon my expertise as a psychiatrist and coach, I embarked on figuring out how to reclaim my time and get a handle on the emotional rollercoaster that often accompanies the business-mom life.
I became my own guinea pig, putting my newfound strategies to the test while juggling the demands of entrepreneurship and caring for my young son. With each step forward, I learned valuable lessons and fine-tuned my approach until I struck gold.
It wasn’t easy, but through trial and error, I developed a plan that truly worked.
That plan is called Biz Mom Balance Blueprint.
I created the Biz Mom Balance Blueprint so you could easily...
- Overcome decision fatigue by knowing exactly what needs your attention first, turning your daily to-do list into focused action - and finally stop second-guessing every decision with time to breathe at day’s end.
- Actually enjoy those precious family moments - like your son’s school play - without your mind racing about forgotten client emails or unfinished work.
- Handle both business pressure and mom-life without losing it - no more screaming ‘hurry up, we’re late!’ every morning or snapping at bedtime because you’re stressed about tomorrow’s deadline.
- Build a schedule that flows with real life - so your kid’s fever or surprise snow day doesn’t derail your entire work week (and your sanity).
- Get help from someone who is a trained psychiatrist and life coach to navigate the ups and downs of being a mom and business owner.
