Juggling Family Responsibilities

For many business owners, family responsibilities can be a major source of stress. If you have young children at home, it can be difficult to find time to work on your business. You may also feel guilty about spending time away from your family in order to grow your business. One of the biggest mistakes people make when starting a home business is failing to think about how they will fit it around their other responsibilities. It’s important that you schedule your time well and find a good balance so you can dedicate enough time to the business but you also don’t neglect your family responsibilities.

Personal Scandals

Any personal scandals can put your business in a bad light. This is a bigger problem than ever before since the advent of social media. If you have a personal scandal, it can quickly become public knowledge and this could damage your business. It’s important to be aware of the potential for negative publicity and take steps to prevent it from happening. Take a look at your social media profile and remove anything that could be used to discredit you in the future. If you do find yourself involved in a personal scandal of some kind, get in touch with some reputation management services to help. They can ensure that the negative stories don’t show up on Google results and help you change the narrative about you and your business.

Tragedies In Your Personal Life

Of course, some challenges in your personal life are out of your control. If you experience a tragedy, such as the death of a loved one or a divorce, it can be difficult to continue running your business as usual. You may need to take some time off work to deal with the situation. It’s important that you have a plan in place for these situations so you don’t lose momentum with your business. This comes down to hiring people that you can trust. If you have a good management team that you can rely on, you won’t feel so apprehensive about taking a break from the business for a while.

The Way You Communicate

Your personal life can also impact the way you communicate with your customers and employees. If you’re going through a tough time in your personal life, it may be difficult to be positive and upbeat all the time. The communication techniques that you have grown up with also filter into the way that you do business. If you’re not careful, the way you communicate can come across as harsh or insensitive. This is why it’s important to be aware of how your personal life is impacting your business communication. If you find yourself struggling, take some time to focus on your communication style and make sure that you are projecting the right image for your business.

There are many different ways that your personal life can impact your business. It’s important to be aware of these challenges and take steps to overcome them. With a little bit of planning, you can ensure that your business is not affected by the ups and downs of your personal life.

Hi, I’m Christine

Have you been a wholehearted mother, but time, toddlers and teenagers have moved on? If you are wondering what comes next for you, you’ll feel right at home here.

Or, are you a mom for whom family life has been non-Pinworthy and parenting has been downright painful? I hear ya. There are many of us around.

Are you looking for a life full of exploration and adventure after the nest empties, but maybe you have no idea how to go about doing that? Stick around! We’ll explore adventures together to help you gain more clarity for your own path.

After a couple decades of writing books and articles about parenting, homeschooling and adoption, speaking to homeschoolers and other parent groups, and reaching out to the mom in the trenches who was trying to make the best of it - my kids grew up. Some grew up and grew away. I was determined to find a way out of the pain, emptiness and lack of direction.

For many of us, the journey starts with something we moms are not accustomed to. After years of caring for and serving others, sometimes we forget the beauty and wonder of US. We need to spend some time getting to know the parts of ourselves that have lain dormant, and take the time to explore interests and passions that we set aside.

I’d like to invite you to get the “What’s Next for Mom” workbook and jump into this growing tribe of Moms who are emptying the nest and filling the life! Let’s reignite your Mojo after Mothering!
