In this episode, I’m going to be talking to you about the struggles that we all face as working moms, especially the challenges that those of us that work from home face when we’re trying to get work done and something pops up. What can you do to still have a productive day when faced with surprises that come with being a mom?

Some highlights include:

I’ve had break up my day to run things to my kids’ daycare, so I’ve decided that I need a daycare checklist. If you have kids at daycare, a checklist is helpful to make sure the daycare provider has everything that they need so that you don’t have to constantly take time out of your day to head back over there.

If you are making mistakes as a mom that are routinely costing you time, it’s probably a good idea to start making notes of what you can be doing better to prevent these mistakes. It’s always good to put new processes in place. (minute 3:00)

Don’t over schedule yourself. Have a little flexible time so that you have to run away from home if you need to without having it completely derail your day. (minute 3:00)
