Ep 237: Gigs And Side Businesses For Moms
Manage episode 340434377 series 2907336
I am going to share something that might be an unpopular opinion to some.
I know there are so many moms that feel so fulfilled at home, being with their children full-time, and immersing themselves in motherhood. And while that is so great for those moms, that just wasn’t my story.
Staying at home, and pouring myself solely into motherhood just didn’t fulfill me. It made me a little (ok, alot). stir-crazy, and I really wanted to put my brain and energy into something that was going to also bring in career fulfillment, and money to help support my family.
Our financial situation wasn’t the greatest, and even with all of my degrees and experience, I still couldn’t find a position that would cover the cost of daycare, let alone bring in an extra income.
I had seen many life and business coaches on social media before, and honestly only viewed these people as public figures. I never imagined that I could compare myself to someone like Marie Forleo because I had no idea HOW she got to where she was, and where to even begin something like that.
I knew I wanted to help other mothers to do the same thing.It came from that feeling that I had of just, “what is the through line” for me, and how can I help other moms to see their own. So many mothers are thinking, “I have all of these experiences, all of these skills, all of this knowledge. Now I am sitting here at home, and I have no idea where to go career wise, and I need to figure it out.” I have created this whole movement out of these moments of pain of like, “how do I do this”
This week, I walk you through some options when it comes to starting, or restarting a business. I know some of you are still in that place of not really feeling satisfied with your choice in business, or more importantly, haven’t taken those necessary steps to move your business forward.
You’ll learn:
- How an online service business and product-based business differ, and the pros and cons that come with both.
- Why you might be selling yourself short in your options of online business opportunities because of how you diminish your experiences.
- How you can categorize your options for starting a business into different pockets of niched-down services.
