Navigating Motherhood with Michelle from With the Huddelstons

Through her passion to create powerful movements in the home education and work-from-home fields, Michelle speaks professionally (locally and abroad), has self-published more than 8 books (2 Amazon best-sellers), and has co-founded one of the fastest growing online schools that provides supplemental and elective courses (Huddleston Academy Live Academics).

Time Management for Working Moms

Time Management for Working Moms

,

As a working mom you need to have good time management. You have a million things to juggle, a busy schedule, and need to prioritize tasks for your family, yourself, your home and work.

I have been a work at home mom for 4 years now and I can tell you, it isn’t easy. I often get distracted with home tasks, have to cut work short because of something, and can feel pulled in a million pieces.

But you don’t have to feel frazzled all the time. It is possible to have good time management as a working mom!

Whether you need help with your morning routine, balancing work and home or easy systems to make your life run smoother, know that it’s possible!
