These last few days have been held in deep discussion with my husband with regard to seriously looking at hiring someone part-time to help me get things done. Not immediately mind you but beginning in July/August when I want to start getting myself back into the work routine.
Having a goal of 12 clients weekly by October 1 means I need to start marketing actively sometime in the next 4 - 6 weeks whcih means I need a bit more free time to look after myself and focus on work. I am just beginning to figure out what that weekly schedule looks like and I am very sure most of you who are mothers as well have gone through this mind blowing experience and have had to come to terms with the feelings of 'guilt' and the judgements of others who look to you and question is the 'nanny' support really necessary.
Needless to say many tears are being shed over this but the beauty of the situation is I am still present so if my son truly needs me for anything I am just a few steps away. My dogs can get the extra care and attention they need as well as part of the time I am addressing is being able to run with them daily and hit the gym three times a week.
The mound of paperwork on my desk is what is driving these conversations ... oh yes ... so is the mound of laundry, the paw prints on the floor, and the many other household chores which normally would have been addressed.
So, I will keep you all posted as to how this schedule and admin/nanny support challenge is going.
Until next time ... embrace your inner wisdom!
Namaste,
Karen
