Branding Yourself!

Alright ladies and gentlemen, if you have or work several direct sales or side hustles remember it is important to brand yourself. If I've learned anything over the years it's that I needed to brand myself and then incorporate that into all my companies. Below is a podcast I've done on this! Feel free to have a listen. As many of you already probably know I work several companies. So you will find that if you search the hashtag (#) #trendybizmom. You'll likely find my posts as I have added my brand to all my posts. It unifies things so that when people are searching for me or looking for something I've posted they can search that hashtag or google search and find me. Now this may not be the thing for you. Personally I've learned that this helps me!

Reflections

Sometimes we get caught up in life and we often go out chasing what we want or desire. We can get so lost the pursuit of more that we often forget what we have. Sometimes we need to take a step back and look at the things we have already. I know I am guilty of always searching for more. Recently though I had something happen that made me really sit back and take a long hard look at what I have. I realize now that I do have a pretty good life and I have more than most. I realized I need to appreciate my time with my family and the other people in my life. This quote says it all. We forget that tomorrow isn't promised. So in your pursuit of more whether it be more money, more friends, a bigger house. Don't forget to take time to be grateful for what you already have. Don't get so lost that you forget to enjoy the precious little moments.

What a Flu Season!

WOW this seems like it's been a really tough year for the flu. I'm noticing a lot of stories of people affected by the flu. Recently my youngest came down with some type of virus however not the flu and she was miserable for 7 days. However many in her school have tested positive for the flu and my heart goes out to all those who have been affect. I know you've heard it several times but Wash your hands, wash your hands, wash your hands. I know it's a pain and sometimes it's hard to remember to stop and wash but it really is important to help stop the spread of virus'. Here is some tips from the CDC to help prevent getting the flu. Get Vaccinated - Flu vaccination can reduce flu illnesses, doctors’ visits, and missed work and school due to flu, as well as prevent flu-related hospitalizations. (I'm not sure I fully agree with this. I am one of those weird types that when I get the vaccine I end up getting the flu much worse but I am in my 30's. I...

The Struggle is real as a parent

Any parent knows it's not easy. It can be challenging on a daily basis, however it does have it's moments of being awesome. To those who don't have kids sometimes I honestly envy you. Don't get me wrong I love my family but days like today challenge who I am and challenges me to do the right thing instead of something much worse. So this morning my 9 year old couldn't find anything to wear. This is a continued struggle every few weeks. However this morning when she is screaming inches from my face I had a decision to make, I could 1. Act on my instincts and smack her in the face as I would anyone else in my face. 2. Keep calm and let her finish so I could calmly explain to her that I had given her every opportunity to have some of her clothes washed. Yes I am one of those mom's who is teaching my kids responsibility and making them learn what it's like to work for the things you want. Now she didn't like that answer of course because I'm holding ...

Let your Kiddo's play on the computer & Keep your files safe!

Image
So I have been seeing it more and more on Social Media Sites, blogs and everywhere else, How to keep kids safe online and protect your computer from their accidents. For the last couple of years now I have been using a product called Magic Desktop.  When I was looking for a way to limit screen time, let them play their games or learn online all without me having to worry what they may get into or have them accidentally destroy my files. I happened to just stumble upon Magic Desktop through a search and I am so glad that I did. Not only was it affordable but it allowed me a way to setup limits on their screen time, and that they have to do some learning before any of the "fun" games would unlock. I can even setup that they can't access the window's desktop or search the internet outside of when and what I setup. This program is great especially for younger kids and does have a lot of fun interesting things to do. So if you are looking for a fun, easy and cheap way ...

So I joined with them after reading tons of reviews about their products. In the picture you can see my first purchase. I received all of those products plus one (not shown) for about $20 with their amazing deals.  I must say it was pretty fast shipping as well. About a week if that. It really was like Christmas all over again. I love love love the ready balms!!! I used the peppermint for a headache I had and it did seem to work. Last night my youngest was having trouble calming down and going to sleep. So I let her smell some of the calming I had applied to my wrist and she honestly started to calm down. So then I went and got the sleeping balm and applied a small amount to get wrist, she was asleep within 30 minutes. It was amazing! I highly recommend this company and their products! Keep an eye out for...
