School is either already in session in your neck of the woods or about to start – and although I love talking about getting organized for school, building routines and making the school year a success – I also think it is a perfect time for moms to evaluate where they are. I think moms tend to put their own desires and passion on the back burner for the task of raising their children.
The role you play in your home is extremely important and it often takes a considerable amount of our time, but do you feel like you are missing something? Parenting is a great calling, but so many of us have other giftings that can often be neglected.
Do you have passions that are left unfulfilled?
Do you have skills that you would like to pursue?
My friend and colleague, Mandi Ehman over at Life…Your Way recently released her ebook, “How to Have Your Cake and Eat It, Too,” and I have been thoroughly inspired by her words.
Her book is for every mother who’s ever wondered if it’s possible to pursue her own passions while also investing in her family and managing a home. As I transition in my own personal life with challenges that affect my family and my business I have found a wonderful resource to provide specific direction in both areas. Life is tricky and I love that I can learn from Mandi and her journey she so openly shares.
Mandi says, “I firmly believe we can be mothers who are fully invested in raising our children and providing a home for our families while also pursuing our dreams and even fulfillment outside of our family.”
Her book is full of encouragement and practical ideas to help you pursue your passion and use your gifts. How to Have Your Cake and Eat It, Too is primarily designed for stay-at-home moms who want to pursue their passion or work-at-home moms who are already juggling both roles; however, there are plenty of valuable tips for women who work outside of the home, serve in a ministry or volunteer organizations or just want to find time to pursue a hobby as well.
She recently announced that she will be kicking off an ebook club on Success Your Way and will be reading through How to Have Your Cake and Eat It, Too, in September.
