The Power of Inclusion: How to Run a Business While Making Your Child Feel Like a Priority
As a mom entrepreneur, you want your child to know they matter just as much as your career. Balancing work and parenting isn’t about choosing one over the other, it’s about finding creative ways to integrate them. Including your child in small aspects of your work doesn’t just make them feel valued; it also gives them a front-row seat to your leadership. Let’s explore how to build connections and teach life skills while running a thriving business.
Why This Matters:
Build Connection: When kids feel included, they feel seen and loved.
Teaches Life Skills: Involving your child gives them insight into work ethics, communication, and decision-making.
Models Balance: You show your child that it’s possible to pursue dreams without sacrificing family values.
How to Include Your Child in Your Business Life:
Mini “Work Buddies”: Give them age-appropriate tasks, like organizing papers or helping package products.
Brainstorm Together: Ask for their opinions on simple decisions, like logo designs or social media posts.
Celebrate Milestones: Include them in moments of success, like ringing a bell for a new client or sharing gratitude after a big win.
Teach Responsibility: Create a “business play corner” where they can pretend to run their own business alongside you.
Activity: Kid-Friendly Vision Boards
This week, set up a family craft night to create vision boards. You create yours for your business while they make one for their own dreams. Discuss how your goals align and inspire each other.
Making your child feel like a priority doesn’t mean putting your business on hold, it means showing them they’re part of the journey. By including them in your work, you’re building memories, connection, and confidence.
