Kids + Covid Do Not Have To Equal Chaos

“I’ve heard one too many of you call yourselves a failure because you’re not able to keep up, and many of your worlds right now are completely upside-down.”

— Shelagh Cummins

So many entrepreneurs right now are struggling to manage homeschooling, running our businesses, and keeping on top of all of our other obligations — all at once.

If you added up your To-Do List right now, chances are it exceeds the available hours in the day!

And yet so many of us are considering ourselves failures if we can’t keep up with the impossible expectations we’ve put on ourselves.

I’m here to tell you to stop!

If you’re expecting to be able to handle all of the new responsibilities that lockdown brings — along with your regular work of building and growing your business — then I urge you to start being kinder to yourself.

You will not be able to do it all the way that you want to... but you CAN take steps to make amazing progress without running yourself into the ground.

In this episode, I’ll be sharing tips and strategies on how to bring your schedule back under control, regain a healthy perspective, understand how to tweak your processes for greatest impact, and figure out where you need to give yourself permission to relax and let go.

When you shift to labelling yourself as a “failure,” you’re not serving anyone — especially not yourself. It’s time to reframe, revamp, and revitalize!

• How to cultivate patience, understanding, and forgiveness for yourself — and why it’s totally okay if you need to reschedule calls!
