Why, having at work life balance is a myth- from a homeschool mom and business owner

I think for me having that work-life balance is a myth.


I'd rather have a work-life integration where my kids see me shopping -

my kids see me posting -

my kids see me shooting (photos and video) my kids see me building -

my kids see me calling clients


“I got to go to Michael's- I got to pick up stuff, hop in the car let's go talk.


“Let's do some of the math in the car on the way.”


“You’re  gonna join on the journey with me -hop in the car. Let's go.”


So having that mentality of “how can I integrate my kids with what What I'm currently doing, has been a great teacher in life and for my own, mental stage as well,”



Work-life balance-I just don't feel like that works for every single person.


For me, I had to integrate at least a little bit-have a little bit of overlap because there's no way that I can just tune out all the kids and be on my phone all day.


And then, there's no way I can have only the kids and not get stuff done.


So I integrate all of our passions and everything together.
