Is this it? Is this life from now on?
No to that coffee date, no to lunch, no to a date night, and no to your kids?
That was me 18 months ago and it was tearing me apart.
I was a stay at home to 2 beautiful boys who were my world, I lived and breathed for them, I put my own needs and wants last to make sure they had everything I could possibly give them, cause that's what we as parents do right?
I was a lost puppy in a big world, I knew nothing else than keeping the household running. But I could never speak up about it, because I was one of the 'lucky' ones, so many people wished they could stay home too.
Yes I was extremely fortunate to be there for all those special moments for our children, it was what I had always wanted to do, but I didn't expect to lose me in the meantime.
We were suddenly in a position that I never ever wanted to be. I dreaded the mail man going past each day incase there was another bill arriving that I had no idea how we'd pay, I couldn't afford to go out and have that occasional coffee with friends, and date nights with my husband were a distant memory.
I always knew I wanted to be successful, but I didn't know what I really wanted to do. But after having kids it had to be something that worked around them, not instead of them, The thought of being another stressed mum dropping them at daycare at 6am and picking them up at 6pm just to 'survive' life, didn't appeal to me at all.
I studied a few different things that I could do from home and soon lost interest as all I was doing was training myself to start my own business and employ myself into a job, I may aswell have gone back to work because the time needed to start something like that was ridiculous. Starting a new company, being the accounts person, admin, marketing, payroll, warehouse, manager, receptionist, the list goes on!
But then I found something, I found a way to work around my kids, to be there everyday for school pick up and drop off, a company that took care of all the marketing, admin, warehousing, payroll etc.
And most of all, I found something that was mine, it gave me purpose and passion and allowed me to step into my greatness and become the best mum, wife and person I can be.
I get to work the hours I want to when I want to. I can drop everything and get to school if they hurt themselves, if they are sick and need a day at home, theres no boss to call, and we get to say yes again. Yes to lunches, date nights, holidays and our kids.
I never ever thought id be one of 'those people' that did this, It wasn't for me, i wasn't meant to be like them. and now Im so eternally grateful for having the courage to think 'what if', what if i could? What if it could change our lives.
What if I don't do it?
Now im on a mission to share it with as many mums as I can.
I have 5 spots left this month to get started and im looking for passionate heart driven mums what have the courage to think what if too.
To see if you qualify, comment 'yes' below and ill be in touch.
Big love mummas, you're all amazing and doing a great job ### Kylie
