Don’t Miss the Life You’re Building 
This week reminded me of something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately.
It’s so easy to keep chasing the next milestone.
The next client.
The next launch.
The next project.
The next goal.
And while there’s absolutely nothing wrong with ambition…
I don’t want to accidentally miss the life I’m building while I’m busy building it.
This week held a little bit of everything.
New clients.
Projects moving forward.
Helping friends.
Dreaming up new spaces in our home.
Watching my girls proudly dye my hair.
Planning for future preschool music classes.
Family laughter in the paint aisle.
Pizza, popcorn, and movie night.
None of those moments, on their own, seem extraordinary.
They make up a beautiful life.
One built intentionally.
One where work supports the memories instead of replacing them.
That’s the business I hope every mom builds.
Not one that demands every ounce of her…
But one that gives something back.
Because success isn’t just measured by what’s in your bank account.
It’s measured by whether you’re enjoying the life your hard work is creating.

Jun 23, 2025 | Building, Business, Mompreneur, Motherhood, Village
Weâre all told you need a village, but let me share WHY you need to build your mompreneur village (and how to do it step by step)
Motherhood (especially while building, maintaining, and growing a business) is beautiful, messy, and challenging â and navigating it alone can feel overwhelming. Thatâs why having a villageâa network of trusted, supportive peopleâisnât just a nice-to-have, itâs essential.
One of the most powerful tools Iâve leaned on in motherhood and business ownership is building a village. If you’re wondering how to build your own, here’s a simple yet powerful method using the acronym OPEN:
O â Options: Start With Openness
Be open to meeting people in unexpected places.
Think about all the casual spaces you frequent: your childâs dance class, baseball practice, storytime at the library, even the grocery store. These are all opportunities to meet someone who might become a foundational brick in your village.
Strike up a conversation with one new person this week. Look for common ground and see if there’s potential to build a connection.
P â Patience: It Wonât Happen Overnight
Real relationships take time.
In todayâs world of instant gratification, itâs easy to feel frustrated when deep friendships donât form quickly. But building your village is like building a house â brick by brick, conversation by conversation.
Commit to showing up consistently in one place â a playgroup, a class, or even an online community â for a month and engage with others each time.
E â Effort: Invest in the Right People
Be intentional about who you allow into your village.
Choose those who lift you up, not tear you down. And donât be afraid to say goodbye to relationships that no longer serve your growth or your familyâs wellbeing.
Evaluate your current village. Are there relationships that drain you? If so, make a plan to either set boundaries or distance yourself respectfully.
N â Neighborhood Watch: Maintain and Refresh
Your village will evolve â and thatâs okay.
As you and your children grow, so will your needs. Some people will cycle out of your life, and others will come in. The key is to stay mindful and allow your village to evolve with you.
Check in with your âNeighborhood Watchâ â those people you trust (like your mom or sister) who can offer insight. Ask them for honest feedback about your current circle.
Bonus: What If a Friendâs Child Is a Bad Influence? Or you have a toxic client?
Sometimes, it’s not the parent who’s the problemâit’s their child. If another child constantly breaks your house rules, talk with their parent about what youâre noticing. And if your parenting styles are too different to reconcile, it’s okay to limit the time your children spend together.Â
This scenario can fit business, too. Sometimes a client is too much trouble. If they constantly shatter your boundaries, talk with them first. If it continues to happen, itâs okay to say, âSorry, this is no longer working for me.â
Set clear expectations for playdates (or working together – contracts are a must) and communicate them kindly with other parents/clients. Your home/business, your rules.
Final Thought: You Deserve a Village That Builds You Up
Motherhood and business ownership wasnât meant to be done in isolation. Whether your village includes fellow moms from the park, your own family, or an online community like the Mom Elevated Society, the support you gain can transform your mompreneur journey.
If you’re ready to find or grow your village, I invite you to explore the Mom Elevated Society, where you’ll find step-by-step guidance, resources, and a community ready to support you.

Working with me means a FAMILY FIRST approach.
đ I show you the business tools that allow you to spend an hour and a half painting snowmen, snowflakes, Christmas trees, Santa hats, and candy canes on nails because your kiddos asked you to.
đ©” I teach you how to organize your business and life so you can visit Santa on a random Tuesday, which means you also need to think ahead enough to move PT earlier in the day to make room (and be able to fit in a last-minute haircut slot for the kids because you KNOW it’ll be fine).
đ I guide you in creating content in a way that works for you, where you can bank it, and get pieces on a good schedule so you can attend the Rudolph Musical on a Monday night and sign your youngest up for dance because you’ll be able to fit those in smoothly.
You can run an amazing business where you perform exceptionally well for your clients but still have energy and space for your kids, family, and friends. (Even yourself on occasion đ )
What do you want to handle better and make time for??

Today, weâre diving into a topic thatâs close to my heart: building a life you love, even amidst the chaos of motherhood and business.Â
Dreaming Beyond Motherhood
In the Mom Elevated Society, one of our guest experts spoke about creating a business and life you love, and it was amazing.
Todayâs topic is about finding joy and purpose in our dreams, even when life feels overwhelming. Hereâs a quote I love:
“A dream is what makes people love life even when it is painful.” â Theodore Zeldin
This resonates so much with me as a mom, because after having kids, itâs easy to lose sight of our dreams. Weâre so focused on guiding these little humans, we sometimes forget about what lights us up. But hereâs the thing: chasing those dreams, even slowly, is exactly what our kids need to see. It shows them that life doesnât stop after having kids and that dreams are always worth pursuing.
Life Doesnât StopâIt Evolves
When you have children, everything shifts. You become a new version of yourself. Your focus shifts to making sure they grow into decent, kind humans. But just because youâre raising kids doesnât mean your personal growth should stop. In fact, continuing to work on yourself and showing your kids that youâre still chasing your dreams is one of the most important things you can do.
Every step, every little win, counts toward building a life you love. Thatâs a huge part of what I talk about in the Mom Elevated Societyâgrowth and how itâs crucial for us as parents and individuals. Kids donât just listen to what we say; they mimic what we do. And when they see us striving for better, they learn to do the same.
Growth Is a Process
Itâs not about huge leapsâitâs about taking one step at a time toward your goals. Whether your dream is business-related or family-focused, the key is breaking it down into manageable steps. Celebrate those small victories, because thatâs where the magic happens. Youâre teaching your children how to set and achieve goals for themselves, and that lesson will stick with them forever.
Iâve learned so much on this journey, from starting out as a single mom to finding my husband and navigating all the twists and turns life throws our way. Through it all, Iâve found that staying true to my path brings happinessânot just for me, but for my family, too.
Building a Life You Love
So, how do you build a life you love? It starts with focusing on your own growth. Step by step, even when itâs hard, even when it feels like youâre not making any progress. You are. And your kids are watching. Youâre showing them that itâs okay to keep growing, to keep reaching, and to keep dreaming.
Letâs leave off with that beautiful quote from earlier:
“A dream is what makes people love life even when it is painful.”
So take those small steps, mamas. Your dreams are worth it, and so are you.
If youâre looking for more in-depth support, check out the Mom Elevated Society.
Iâm so excited to see whatâs in store for us next!
