    I have a B.A in Interior Design and lived in California until 3 years ago when my now-Fiancée was promoted and we moved to Houston Texas. I've always had a 'job' (usually admin) but always wanted to start my own biz. This is my year :)

    Hello, Lisa. Thank so much for sharing this. I know this took a lot of courage to do and I admire that. What you said has deeply impacted me. You helped me reflect on my choices and see why I choose them. What I greatly appreciate is your insight to motherhood. Five years ago my family was given the new that my father was diagnosed with stage four RCC cancer. It’s a blessing he’s still fighter after five major surgeries and seeking experimental treatment now. After receiving the new I felt college to be home so I could help my family. Now that they have moved to seek other treatments not only for him but now my mother with her brain tumor. I felt so lost these past five years after I put my life on hold to be there for my family. Hearing your understanding on being a mother I could only imagine how my mother feels. Even though this struggle they remain the most positive people I know. They have always been so supportive of my and my two brothers. Now having all of this free time on my hands I decided to peruse a life long dream to work in interior design. I’m currently working in a bank which has been wonderful to me being able to understand finances not only personally but for business. I have designed for a church, psychologist office, and a few residential before. If you have any recommendations I’m all ears.
    Again I want to thank you for sharing this video. I wish you and your family another year of happiness and success!
    -Cody

    Hi there my my best friend and I are in the planning phase of opening our interior design business. She has a Bachelors in Interior design and I have a Bachelors in Business management and we both have started our careers in our respective roles but want to move on now that we’re more settled in life. Although, I have a B.A. in business management I’m also very passionate about interior design and will be helping in the field as well. I will focus on furnishings while she focuses on fixtures.

    Oh my God, I love you already! Lol but seriously, I’ve seen so much content on RUclips about interior design but this really hits home. I’m a mommy of five! I just recently decided I wasn’t going to spend $3,000 per studio class and dropped my interior design program. I’ve been thinking this entire time, there’s gotta be another way! I’m trying to launch my business and still be a great mom and wife, while homeschooling three of my kids. I’m looking forward to your vlogs 😊🙏

    Wow, this resonates so much with me! (as did your book) I’ve got an online violin studio with a RUclips channel and online courses, everything does great and combines ideally working from home as I’m about to birth my third baby in 2 years. However, I recognise exactly what you say that I don’t give voice to things that are important for me and that is helping other moms build a business like me. I’m just as passionate about online business and lifestyle design as I am about the violin. Love to know more about how you transitioned your business and if you followed certain coach trainings? 😊

    • @ThePossibilityMom
      @ThePossibilityMom  4 года назад

      Hi! Side note, I played Suzuki violin for like 16 years!!!! Ok- well, it was definitely a transition for me. I started with creating my own online course that became the basis of my book, I took A LOT of online courses lol in all things time management / online business / productivity, and then I started implementing over time. It has been a lot of learning, and a lot of fun.

      @@ThePossibilityMom cool you played violin too... perhaps one of your kids will. I already did a TON of business coaching/courses/books (addictive isn’t it?) too, so maybe I should just stop doubting I’m ready. 😁

    LOVE this. I am a SAHM for 2 almost 3 kids. I had a business but I didn’t like it. I also did B-school, learned a lot, but I haven’t put it into action yet. Staying at home with my kids is great but can also be boring, and i do want to have something on the side too after the little soon to be born baby is a bit bigger (and not on the boob 24-7 anymore 😂). I think you could really help me, as you’re inspiring me already. I am living in The Netherlands but have been in Canada (mainly Ontario) lots of times as we have a lot of family there, loooove Canada (happy Canada Day btw!). Thank you for inspiring me!

    Hi Lisa! I have a bachelor degree in Architecture and have been working in the design field for 10 years (2 years abroad and the last 8 years in Canada). I live in Calgary and would love to have some volunteer opportunities in interior design, if available. I have opened my own business this years, and I am trying to manage my time as a business woman, a wife and a mother of two kids under 3.
    I really like your channel, as your reality seems to be relatively close to mine.
    If you know of any volunteer opportunities here in Calgary, or elsewhere in Canada, please feel free to get in touch :)
    Thanks for sharing your life with us ;)
