from The Unbusy Mom - where your time breaks as a business mom (and why) · host Alyssa Wolff - Work/Life Balance Coach for Business Moms

Your Google calendar just reminded you that it’s time for “Selfcare Block.”You roll your eyes, pull up the client project again, and get back to refining their sales copy.‘Cause what you DON’T have is time to finish everything off today’s to-do list - you’re going to have to bump the workshop prep again (and it’s getting pretty close to deadline, too) just to wrap everything for these “due by Friday” sales copy deliverables.Which means that “taking time out” to “refresh yourself” and “fill your own cup” is bunk. Laughably bunk - in that ironic, might be nice, you’re so out of touch way, of course.‘Cause when you’re behind on the daily requirements of crossing off your to-do list as a business mom, slowing down is pretty much anathema.So here’s how to turn that around.You’ve got this!AlyssaFree up your time as a work-at-home mom: https://yourunbusylife.com/ ☕️ Thursday at the Coffee ShopDrop into Voxer anytime Thursday.Bring me the one project your to-do list has basically adopted at this point. 😂Maybe it's a site update.Maybe it's a launch decision.Maybe it's something that's been living on your Tuesday list for... longer than either of us would like to admit. 😂I'll wander through Voxer with a cup of coffee and tell you what keeps catching my eye.No presentation. No "come prepared." No homework (unless you ask for it). Just a conversation about the business thing that absolutely refuses to graduate. 😂Coffee Shop Thursdays this series:☕️ August 20 - The Busy Trap☕️ August 27 - The Busy Trap☕️ September 3 - The Busy TrapI'll keep taking conversations throughout the day ‘til Thursday fills up.→ Pull up a chair here
