how to work with kids around
I'll admit that I still don't know how to find balance in running a business when it's school holidays. I figure other people struggle with that too, so I wanted to add something to the conversation.
Something other than: “get up earlier!”, “work when your kids nap” or “just get someone to watch the baby”. None of this advice was particularly useful to me. I had to find other ways to manage work.
When I say 'work' I don't mean therapy, speaking gigs, interviews or mentoring. I can't do those things unless I'm child-free. I mean all the fiddley work that happens in business - admin, writing blogs, editing podcasts and videos.
I talk more about work, burnout, different kinds of rest and overstimulation in my new book, Social Media Detox for Mums.

I also send a weekly email and have old school-style pen pals rather than use social media :)
