School Hours or Less: Time and Productivity for Mums & Moms In Business

If you are currently juggling the job of raising little humans while also trying to grow and scale your business...And you're finding it challenging to fit it all in, then this is the podcast for you. Hosted by Master Certified Coach & Melissa Tiers' trained Hypnotist, Kirsty Knight, this show delivers the productivity-boosting and time-leveraging strategies, time management tips, and mindset shifts you need to grow and scale a wildly successful business, without sacrificing time with your kids and without burnout. Having coached hundreds of women over the past five years, and as a serial entrepreneur and a mum herself, Kirsty knows all too well the time and productivity challenges most mums face, and she brings all of that expertise and wisdom, as well as the solutions and processes she teaches her clients, into this show. No matter what stage of business you are in, and whether you call yourself a mum or a mom, this is the podcast for you if you are an entrepreneur, solopreneur, small business owner, coach, consultant, or an online service provider with a big heart and big ambition. Because why on earth should women have to choose? If you're looking for the answers to problems and questions like... I want a 6-figure business during School Hours Only but I'm struggling to fit it all in. I want to only be working during School Hours but want to be making more money. I can't put my baby down for even five minutes. How am I going to get any work done? I actually had the whole day free, because I had childcare for once, and I wasted the whole day. Why isn't time-blocking working for me? How can it possibly work for mums? How am I supposed to work on my business, when my kids are home, sick? How do I overcome my perfectionism? I know it is slowing me down and making me procrastinate. Why can't I make myself take action? Even when I know what I should be doing, I don't do it. I feel like I'm not good enough yet to raise my prices but I’m not earning enough and I don’t have more hours to work. I’m snowed under so think I need to hire a VA, but I had a bad experience once and my income also isn’t consistent, what should I do? How can I stop procrastinating? I think I'm self-sabotaging my business success. What can I do? I'm worried about my kid at school, which means I can't focus on work. I feel like I'm always on my phone for my business - and my kids are seeing me on it all the time. Even when I say I will stop working to play with the kids, I find myself squeezing one more task in. I always feel behind. Even when I have a productive day, I still feel like I haven't done enough. I get such bad mum-guilt if I have to work on my business, instead of being fully available for my kids. I am terrible at managing my time. I waste so much time on my emails and social media, even though I don't have time to waste. How do I stop? I want to be earning more, but I don't have any more hours to work. What can I do? I know my work-life balance isn't good. I'm always having to tell my kids no. I only work when the kids are at school - but I am not making the money I want to be making with those hours. What can I do? I find it so hard to stay motivated and accountable to what I said I would do, working for myself I hate planning but know that I am more productive when I do. How can I overcome the resistance to planning my week? I can't stop saying yes, even though I don't have time for it. There just aren't enough hours in the day. Should I be getting up at 4am? How do other mums juggle it all? I can't get anything done when the kids are home - they interrupt me constantly. If you’re ready to learn ninja-level skills at managing your business, mind and time, so you can make the money you want to be making in your business, whilst still having time with your little ones, this podcast is your next must-listen.
