ON TODAY’S EPISODE…
Every single day we have choices to make. Some choices only impact us; while others, impact everyone around us. In this episode, you’ll be challenged with the choices you make.
INSIGHTS
Every single minute of every single day we have choices to make. Some of these choices only impact us– like what we wear, eat, or read (although our kids are watching and learning).
Other choices impact every single person’s vibe around us– like how neat we keep our house, our word choices, and career paths.

Career paths:
Stay-at-home moms and dads: you are janitors, nurses, chefs, nutritionists, artists, cheerleaders, counselors, and you are on call 24/7. You’re the real MVP.
Working from home parents: you manage to get things done with screaming, crying, and all sorts of noises around you. You work from closets, on the kitchen table, and the school pick up line. Your multitasking skills are unmatched.
Parents that work outside the home: you somehow are able to drop your kids off on your way to work and still make it to the 8am meetings without coffee stains on your shirt. With the few hours you have with your child after school, you still manage to cook or pick up dinner and take them to practices and do homework and tuck them in at night. Your sacrifices never go unnoticed.
It doesn’t matter what career category you find yourself in. What matters is the choices you make with how you invest the time that you do have with your children.
