201 | Parentpreneur

Running a photography business is HARD. Running a photography business while raising little kids as a new parent is even HARDER. There's so many questions about how to handle it all: How do you carve out time to work? How do you handle childcare? How do you balance it all? Our world changed dramatically in April of 2018 with the birth of our son, James, so we've been in the tension of loving our family and loving our work ever since. So I called my best parentpreneur friends with little ones to share their honest stories here, and we openly talk about our struggles with identity, childcare, balance, post-partum depression, and asking the biggest question we're all afraid to ask... (listen to find out what it is.) Looking for some practical entrepreneurial advice? Like how in the world should you structure childcare?? I also have my friends share what's worked (and what hasn't) when it comes to working during naps, hiring in-home nannies, and sharing childcare amongst family members. Plus, learn all about the idea of the Family Kingdom and how it can help you thrive inside your home - instead of drive you crazy.
