Drama day 1: Coffee and Chaos

 


Hi there! Welcome to my little corner of the internet. If you’re a working mom, a parent juggling life’s countless responsibilities, or simply someone striving to balance ambition and reality, you’ve found a kindred spirit.

Let me introduce myself. I’m a full-time working mom to two energetic boys—a curious and ever-active 2-year-old and a school-going 7-year-old. Life in our home is always a whirlwind of activity. On top of parenting, I work from home, where my days are a blend of Zoom calls, snack breaks, toddler giggles and tantrums, and attempts to keep everything under control.

So, why did I start this blog? Because, like many of you, I’m on a journey. It’s a journey to find sanity amidst chaos, to craft a life that’s organized yet flexible, and to build financial stability that provides peace of mind. It’s a journey filled with triumphs and mishaps, laughter and tears—all of which deserve to be documented, shared, and perhaps, learned from.

What to Expect Here

This blog is my journal—a daily chronicle of what it takes to keep life moving as a working mom. It’s not just about the highlights but also the struggles and strategies that help me get through each day. Here’s what you’ll find:

  • Parenting Adventures: Stories and tips from my life raising two boys with boundless energy and endless curiosity.

  • Organization and Productivity: Hacks and routines I’m discovering to manage a household, a career, and personal goals.

  • Financial Insights: My journey toward creating multiple income streams, managing a budget, and navigating financial stress.

  • Self-Care and Growth: How I’m striving to find moments of peace, maintain my mental health, and pursue my dreams beyond work and motherhood.

Why Write?

This blog is my way of reaching out to you, fellow moms and parents, who might also be trying to figure it all out. It’s a space for reflection, inspiration, and maybe even a little humor to lighten the load. More importantly, it’s a place where we can connect, share ideas, and support one another in this beautiful, messy adventure called life.

As I step into 2025, my goals are clear: to create multiple passive income streams, be more organized and indulge more in self-care. In this journey I am hoping to build a community where we can all learn and grow together. I hope my experiences resonate with you, and that together, we can navigate the ups and downs with grace and determination.

If you have any tips and hacks of your own I’d love to hear about them in the comments. Let’s cheer each other on and make 2025 a year of growth, connection, and joy.

Thanks for stopping by, and here’s to a year full of possibilities!

Stay tuned for the next post—it’s going to be an exciting ride. 😊

Drama day 14: A Working Mom’s Home Cleaning Routine

  Staying Organized with Two Kids Balancing work, kids, and household chores can feel overwhelming, but having a little help and a structured cleaning routine can make all the difference. As a working mom with two children, I’ve developed a realistic cleaning schedule segmented into daily, weekly, and monthly tasks to keep the house tidy without sacrificing quality time with my family. Needless to say I also hire help to do the dishes, mop/sweep the floors on a daily basis(so thankful!). Here’s how I manage my portion of the cleaning: Daily Cleaning Routine These tasks are quick and essential for maintaining a baseline of cleanliness: Morning: Make the beds. Start a load of laundry (if needed). Evening: Clear and wipe kitchen counters after dinner. Put toys and clutter back in their designated places (kids can help!). Tip: Encourage your kids to pitch in by assigning age-appropriate tasks, like putting their shoes away or wiping small surfaces. Weekly Cleanin...

Drama day 8: The Silent Struggle

  When Life Overwhelms, Even in Stability So far, I’ve been using this space to chronicle my daily life—sharing the highs, the lows, and the little victories that make each day unique. But today, I feel the need to pause that narrative and delve into something deeper, something that’s been sitting heavy on my heart. It’s about a reality that many of us experience but rarely discuss: how life can feel overwhelmingly difficult, even when you’re in a loving relationship and are more or less financially stable. This isn’t a confession of failure but an exploration of the silent struggles that come with juggling it all. Let’s talk about it. We often hear that love and financial stability are the keys to a happy, stress-free life. But those living this supposed "ideal" know a truth often unspoken: even with a supportive partner and a steady income, life can feel crushingly overwhelming. The juggling act of responsibilities, societal expectations, and personal battles often leaves o...
