This month, we've explored how September represents our "second New Year" - a perfect time to implement insights from our summer reflections into meaningful change. But how can we bring some of that holiday spirit into our everyday life?
It's time to get creative and put some fresh, exciting strategies into practice. In the past, we’ve shared strategies such as setting SMART goals, creating priorities and plans, and celebrating successes to help you make changes. But in today’s post, we wanted to share some unique and enjoyable ways to ensure your daily life carries that...
With summer in the rearview mirror, now is a fantastic time to think back on what the slower pace and relaxation of the holidays have taught us. Did you notice certain things that made you feel more balanced, happier, or more fulfilled? These golden nuggets of insight can guide us towards our ideal life balance, and that’s what we’re discussing in this blog post.
For some of us, the summer months offered a chance to spend quality time with our children, reconnect with our partners, or simply enjoy a well-deserved break. Maybe you discovered a new passion or rekindled an...
So far in August, we’ve learnt about planning ahead and letting go. Now, as we soak up the last of the summer rays, let's dive into the final piece of our summer survival puzzle: figuring out what truly matters and pouring our energy into those areas. And yes, this involves ditching some of your less important tasks!
You're probably wondering, what exactly counts as 'less important' tasks? Simply put, these are tasks that, if left undone or done less often, wouldn't significantly affect your business or personal life.
Spotting The Less Important Tasks
But how can you spot...
Summer is in full swing and if you’re anything like us, you might be feeling the stretch between juggling your responsibilities and making the most of the sunny season with your kids. It's tough, we know. Sometimes, to keep our sanity and joy, we need to accept that it's okay to 'let go' a bit during the summer.
You're probably thinking: "Let go? But I've got so much to do!" Yes, it sounds counterintuitive, but trust me on this one. Letting go doesn’t mean abandoning ship; it’s about acknowledging that you can't do everything, and that's perfectly okay.
So how can we ease...
Resilience is a great trait to have. But how do we develop it in the first place? In our previous blog post, we identified the key elements which lead to resilience: a positive mindset, adaptability, perseverance, and self-care. In this blog post, we dive into the specifics of how we can cultivate these traits as well as how they can help us as mums and mumpreneurs.
Element 1: Cultivating a Positive Mindset
A positive mindset is an essential part of resilience, and fostering it involves a conscious effort to focus on the bright side of every situation. To nurture this perspective,...
Imagine running a successful business was like baking a cake. You would gather your ingredients, follow a recipe, and if all goes well, you will end up with a delicious result. Now, what if I told you that the same could apply to resilience? Yes, just like baking, building resilience can be seen as a recipe, with different 'ingredients' coming together to create your unique 'Resilience Cake'.
So, what are these ingredients for resilience, and how can we as mumpreneurs mix them together to serve up success amid change? Let’s explore.

Let’s be real. Juggling our responsibilities as mums and mumpreneurs can be tough. Sometimes, we unconsciously hold ourselves back with limiting beliefs that undermine our confidence and prevent us from achieving our goals. In our last blog post, we shared ways in which you could identify and challenge your limiting beliefs. But in this blog post, we’re going a little further and sharing with you a three-step method that will ensure you transform your mindset, overcome self-imposed barriers and change those limiting beliefs, permanently.

Recognising our limiting beliefs is the first step towards overcoming them. In last month’s newsletter we discussed some of the common ones that we see in mums and mumpreneurs. However, each of us experiences life differently, and therefore, we develop our own unique set of limiting beliefs. Often, we are unaware of them. However, we can only do something about them if we know what they are. In this blog post, we explore various strategies you can use to identify those beliefs and start to challenge them, so they hold less hold over you.
