How to find the hidden $4,000 that you didn’t know you had.
From Woes to Wealth Money is... such an odd thing... isn't it? It's become an even more avoided topic than religion, sex or politics. Why is it so taboo? An Emotionally Charged Topic of Avoidance Money, according to researchers, is top of mind for most individuals over the age of 25, the #1 reason couples fight, the leading cause of divorce and the biggest stress contributor in health issues, including heart failure and cancer. YET--- when asked what ONE THING a person would wish for that would make EVERYTHING better, most people say "money". Quit working hard for your money... and learn how to let money work for you. Money is the life force of your business AND your beloved … [Read more...]
Goodbye, Competition. Hello, Collaboration!
There is power in numbers. When I first created OurMilkMoney.com, it was because I had a dream to be able to stay home and take care of my family. I knew that I couldn't do it alone, and that there had to be others who had the same dream. My vision for OurMilkMoney.com was that it would be a collaborative organization - one that would serve a purpose for many others like me. The more parents I could get involved- the more we would accomplish for ourselves and our children. I had dreams of validation, purpose and impact. Nearly 4 years later, I still feel the energy from all of you. It’s feeding itself. We can see very clearly what we have already accomplished and how much more we will grow … [Read more...]

Teach Your Babies to be BANKABLE!!
Our little ones are BIG SPENDERS! Incredible as it seems, American children spend over 4 billion dollars of their own money each year. Yet how many of them know how to make a savings deposit, budget their money or plan for long-term goals? With so much cash to spend, kids aged 8-12 have grown into one of the most sought-after consumer markets in the country. Children are inundated with ads, pressured by over-indulged peers, and are even being wooed by credit card companies. Turn those headlines of WOE into headlines of WEALTH Economic downturns. Mortgage meltdowns. Plummeting stock markets. In every newspaper and TV sound bite, we are reminded of the dire financial challenges the world … [Read more...]
((Unexpected)) Life Transitions
Expecting...a different journey...than this one? If you have found yourself on a different path than where you began, you are one of the lucky ones. Unexpected circumstances are THE BEST indicators that you are fully experiencing life the way it was intended. Life doesn't hand you situations that you are not equipped to handle. Major life transitions -- moving to a new city, becoming a parent, retirement -- can be an exciting and invigorating part of life. Yet transitions, even happy ones, can also be stressful and bring up mixed feelings. Transitions ... and loss of identity... It is natural to define yourself by your surroundings and it can be disorienting when you wake up in … [Read more...]
Strength of Purpose in Your Role as a Leader – With Special Guest, Susan Lyne
Don't let your visions of success frighten you. As parents and business leaders, we are also visionaries... and that can be overwhelming for those of us balancing a full schedule of family, home and business. Making room for our own sense of purpose can feel irrepressible and disorganized...until we see an example of someone who has already achieved the kind of success we'd like for ourselves. Last week, we talked about surrounding ourselves with positive people and how that can create a clear path to victory. This week I'd like to talk about adopting behaviors and philosophies of those we admire and look up to. For this very in depth look at ourselves as front runners in our own … [Read more...]
Who is on your “Support Staff?”
We are very affected by the energy of the people who surround us... especially the people who we love most. It's not the easiest thing to admit, but often it is the support (or lack thereof) from our friends and family members who make or break our success. These characters are only fragments of the people we love most and our need to impress them is fabricated by our own insecurities and fears. When we are working overtime to appease them, we become unclear about our own intentions and consequently deny serving our happiest self. Our inner voice becomes silenced. On the other hand having a strong support base, fans who adore you and are rooting for you, can make a terrific impact and … [Read more...]

Mompreneur Management
Time Management... ...is a whole 'nother science for moms---especially those who are also homeschooling or building a career at home. It often seems that our to-do list is never ending. Ask any work-at-home mom and she'll tell you that the most difficult challenge faced as we transitioned from our corporate jobs into self-employment was learning to manage our time effectively and efficiently. Stop trying to fit your life into someone else's calendar. Contrary to what some time management experts will tell you, we DO NOT all have the same amount of hours in a 24 hour day. While all moms struggle with managing their time to adapt to the demands of personal, family and professional … [Read more...]
