If we weren't crazy before we became parents, we certainly are now. I admit it. I love crazy people. Let me clarify. I love people who embrace their craziness. Why try to hide it when you can make it work to your advantage? It's the crazy ones who get. stuff. done. It's the crazy ones who invent new products, take them as far as they will go, and then invent something new when the first product becomes old news. It's the crazy people who always land the big accounts and close the biggest deals because they are not afraid of the … [Read more...]
Parents, Embrace the Crazy and Use it to your Advantage
Moms Supporting Other Moms
Somewhere along the way we realized our greatest resource was each other. If you listened to last week's show, you heard my latest rant about how the world should be bending over backwards for the hard-working moms of the world. Being a stay-at-home parent is a thankless job without pay, without bathroom breaks, and somehow it manages to deplete what little we have from our bank accounts. From the outside it must look like torture and yet the work-at-home parent revolution is still rising by tens of thousands each year. Why would … [Read more...]

How to run your family like a business
It's simple. Just run your family like a Business. Why not? By using an empowering management style, who's to say that we can't educate, parent, and inspire ambition in our children as we raise them along side of our businesses? If you are a parent struggling to balance career with family, you won't want to miss this discussion. Simplify. Compartmentalize. Profit.

How to Position Yourself As a Celebrity in Your Industry – with special guest Wendi McClendon
Go beyond slight recognition and dive into stardom. Years before I was a business coach for parents, I was a business coach for actors in Hollywood. I didn't teach them how to act, but I did coach them on how to know their "product" as well as how to create out of the box marketing strategies that would allow them to be remembered by the people who were in a position to hire them. The business of acting isn't much different than your home based business where you structure your own game plan, work to build memorable relationships, and … [Read more...]
Capitalize on Yourself Effectively
Be honest. Does social media frighten you? You wouldn't be alone if it does. It seems like every time we finally master one platform, a new one appears or a new 3rd party application is created. You are no dummy. You appreciate that social media is a terrific tool when it comes to promoting your business and leveling the playing field, but staying technically aware is enough to make your head explode. Without the right comprehension, your social time online could end up being counter-productive. How are you supposed to get any actual work … [Read more...]
We are all a little freaky. And funny. Own it
Whatever is screaming the loudest gets the most attention. At least that is how it is in my house. As parents, our days almost never go as planned. You may have meant to put out a client newsletter or create a rockin' new business plan or even have a play-date with some new friends from preschool. All that was pushed aside, however, when your 3 year old peed on the floor or your 6 year old suddenly came down with pink eye or your hot water heater broke and seeped into all those boxes in the garage. Sometimes the hardest part of being a … [Read more...]
Madhouse without the Migraine
Flustered or unfazed? I am all about simple. Actually that is a blatant lie. I often look at others who seem to have it all together and I wonder what it would be like if I simplified the chaos in my life. On the days that I do actually feel caught up and organized- it doesn't last long. I imagine it's because a clean slate is an inviting opportuntity to take on a messy new project. Which makes me wonder... Do we thrive on chaos? If there is one thing I've gotten really good at, it's learning to dissect everything. Our lives are … [Read more...]
