Balancing Motherhood and Business: Insights for Mums

Welcome to a brand new series! Each month, I’m pulling back the curtain on what it really means to balance motherhood and business, cutting through the noise of social media and relentless sales tactics. My goal is to create a space where we can connect, share insights, and find clarity amidst the chaos of running a service-based business. If you’re here for the real, unfiltered side of balancing motherhood and business, you’re in the right place. I hope you enjoy this first instalment as much as I enjoyed writing it. xx

Today’s a little different—it’s my birthday, and I’m starting it with calm, reflecting on a question that’s been on my mind: Am I making these two people proud? My 8-year-old self, with all her dreams and wonder, and my 80-year-old self, with all her wisdom and reflection.

Balancing motherhood and business is about making choices that align with the life you want for yourself and your family. This morning, after my boys showered me with hugs, kisses, and endless joy, I took a moment to sip my tea and think about how far I’ve come. There was a time I called “the nothing”—a deep darkness that felt unbearable.

But now, I see it shaped me to truly appreciate the love and magic in life. Life is about love—loving those around you, doing what you love, and making choices that both your younger and older selves would be proud of.As I start this new year of life, I’m reminded to pause, reflect, and ask: Am I living a life that honors who I was and who I will be? What about you—are you making those two people proud? I’d love to hear how you’re reconnecting with yourself. 💖 Check out the reel and share your thoughts!

Sometimes, all it takes is the right support to bring your vision to life. Joanne, a recent client, shared how our collaboration made a significant difference for her business.

“Sarah has been my ‘little treasure chest’ over the last few months, helping me redesign my logo, build my social media knowledge, and so much more! Each time we met, I gained a new treasure—valuable insights that I hadn’t even considered before. Her gentle and nurturing approach felt sincere and trustworthy, and I now feel more confident in the back end of my business.” — Joanne

Hearing words like these is why I’m so passionate about what I do. It’s not just about providing tools and strategies; it’s about understanding your unique needs and offering guidance that feels right for you. If you’re looking for clarity or support, whether it’s in digital marketing, systems, or launching your business, I’m here to help you feel confident and capable.

As businesses continue to evolve, there’s a noticeable shift happening—away from flashy marketing and toward something more genuine and connected. This isn’t about jumping on every trend; it’s about finding what resonates with your true purpose and your audience. Authentic storytelling and a heartfelt approach are becoming the new cornerstones of effective marketing.

That’s it for my first newsletter! I hope it’s given you new ideas, renewed energy, and a spark to move forward in a way that truly aligns with your passions and purpose.
