Me every day. Please tell me I'm not the only one.
HOW am I the responsible adult, raising a human and running two whole businesses π« this can't be right.

Oh hey π A little introduction!
Why does it feel so vulnerable writing anything about yourself?!
I would love to know more about you! Pls share so I feel less awkward π

Being self employed is wild.
Being a mum is wild.
Both at the some time?! π
You would be forgiven for asking why on earth I do it. Here's why.
What are yours?

πππ how many of these have you thought or said in the past month?...
A Mother Time is 'the village' we're all told we need... Cos no one should be doing this crazy self employed mum juggle alone.
I will never, ever stop championing and supporting small, independent or female founded businesses.
I started my first business when I was at Uni, and have been self employed, one way or another, ever since. Even during employed work, I supported, mentored and coached start ups and creative founders.
It is something I've always been passionate about, it's been at the heart of every job I've had.
If you're self employed, no matter how big or small your business is, you should be incredibly proud, cos boy is it not the easy option.
Please share the love below and tag your favourite indie, small and female/mum founded brands & businesses. I would love to give them a follow πβοΈ

Well who knew π₯Ήππ one of my favourite moments of the whole pilot was the first very first focus call.
One mum was breastfeeding.
One had her toddler.
One had her baby and toddler.
Two were working after drop off.
One was on a pram walk nap.
And I had a moment and thought, oh my gosh, all these women are parenting and working and coming together and it was gorgeous. I realised we're all making it work and we are all trying our best and what an incredible thing to be all in one virtual room. Less alone, far more seen.
I can't wait to see what comes next!
Doors open in June and the waitlist is open now π
AS IF there's over 500 of you following along for this wild old, self employed mum journey. π₯Ή Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Anyone else get the Sunday scariest?! Even when they're self employed...
It's no longer about going back into the office or the commute, now it's about how the f*ck am I going to fit it all in.
Every weekend I'd feel a bit (a lot) overwhelmed by the week ahead, and would feel on the back foot from the get go. So I started following these steps to feel a bit more ready!
Give it a save, follow along and lemme know what works for you!
Want more support as a self employed mum? Want to join a community that feels like a sigh of relief? Come and say hi!

Never underestimate a self employed mum
I did the thing! The pilot of A Mother Time is all wrapped up and it was amazing.
I learnt SO much, the women involved were incredible and it has made me so so excited for the launch of the community.
A Mother Time Community opens it's doors in June. Join the waitlist now so you don't miss out! (Why? π The pilot filled in 3 days)

Cos sometimes your whole morning really does go to shit, and it's really hard to get it back on track and not let it ruin the rest of your day.
Here are my go tos for when I have these days... They're not anything new, or glamorous or a game changing hack, but annoyingly. They work.
Anything I've missed that works for you?
