 Have you ever daydreamed about leaving your 9 to 5 to work online full-time? Doing both can be rewarding but also exhausting.

Join me today as I ask Carrie Flynn how she balances being a mom and working full-time while running an online business.

Carrie is a mom of two, a full-time teacher, and she’s having $6,000 months in her online business. She owns a company called Virtual Simplicity which offers Online Business Management and done for you system setups in Dubsado and Kajabi.

Carrie reveals how she got into the online space, and what she does to keep on top of everything. Life doesn’t always go the way we expect, and running an online business poses unique challenges that we might not always be prepared for.

I hope you tune in to today’s episode to find out how she manages a family, a full-time job, and her growing online business. We also dive into the big plans she has for her future!

Value Bombs:

 

  • How Carrie manages as a business owner, mother, and teacher
  • The value of knowing your limits 
  • How to keep on schedule if you’re not a calendar person 
  • Boundaries and the hard conversations you must have with clients 
  • The importance of following your gut 
  • Transitioning from full-time employee to full-time business owner 
  • What a good intake form can do for your business
  • The value of creating meaningful relationships through business 
  • Overcoming the challenges of leaving a 9 to 5

 

I think we should all take a leaf out of Carrie’s book and remind ourselves of her mantras: “I’m doing the best that I can” and “keep moving forward.” Don’t get lost in self-doubt or fear of the future. You are strong and capable!   I loved having Carrie on the show today and am excited to see where her business goes in 2020 and beyond!
