How do you do it all? The secret to building a business around your family and thriving.

As mothers we have 9 million things to do and think about all at the same time. We’re pulled in a million and one directions. Throw a business dream into the mix and your To Do list can quickly spiral into overwhelm. It’s hard.   

In this episode we’re looking at the practicalities of making our business fit around our busy lives in a way that supports our wellbeing and our dreams.   

Being intentional with how we spend our time is vital. I’m going to walk you through the ways I’ve found to help steer through the insanity, to get super organised with batch-thinking and batch-planning and to keep your eye firmly on the essentials. 

 

Here are the highlights from this episode:

About the Podcast

The AMotherBrand Podcast
Welcome to The AMotherBrand Podcast. I’m Nonie White, former TV producer/director turned mother and entrepreneur.

This podcast exists to empower more women to know that you don’t have to choose between being the mother you want to be and doing work that you love. You can do both, by building a business around your family.

I’m not going to sugar-coat it, starting-up and growing a business around your family isn’t easy but being in control of how you spend your life and what work you do, when and where, is 100% worth it. This podcast is all about helping you embrace a new way of working, one that considers you as a whole person and prioritises your wellbeing, to help you feel good, do great work and thrive.

I’ll be sharing tips about how you can apply the science of wellbeing, Positive Psychology, to help you flourish in life and work, as well as interviewing incredible female founders about how they’ve successfully built their businesses around their families.

Listen to and follow this show wherever you get your podcasts, and remember to share so other mums can find us too!
