For today’s friday forum I’d love to hear your teams for growing a business and raising a family at the same time. I get this question on a regular basis, and I (and our other readers) would love to hear your tips and tricks for making it work!
Friday Forum – How Do Handle Growing A Business & Raising a Family?
Startup Princess is an international network committed to empowering Women Entrepreneurs by offering resources for women in business to support, mentor, collaborate, learn from, and inspire one another. In 2006, after struggling to raise funding for an initial startup business venture, Kelly King Anderson recognized an important market niche existed for reliable resources educating women desiring to start and grow successful businesses, thus Startup Princess was developed.
Successful women entrepreneurs understand that for every business venture, they are in charge of creating, organizing, developing, managing, and assuming all the risks associated with their enterprise. That can seem quite intimidating but as other women business owners will tell you, it’s a lot of work, but it’s worth it! Success is within your grasp and Startup Princess is here to help.

Great timing! I just posted a blog article on this exact topic. I see so many parallels between running a business and raising a child. They are unpredictable, frequently keep me up at night and have caused me to question my sanity at times.
The key for me is to focus on what’s truly important, be fully present wherever I am and plan, plan, plan.
I’d love to hear how other entrepreneur Mom’s make it work.
I agree with you, Gina. Scheduling is key, and being present is the most important. I’ve given up my award for being the best multitasker in the world and I’m focusing on presence, too. When I’m with my kids, I’m not worried about my phone. When I’m working on marketing, I’m not worrying about my email or facebook. I can get more done in less time with focus.
Love the insight! Thanks so much for the dialogue!
