3 Inspiring Mompreneurs for the Aspiring Creative

October 17, 2017 By: Miranda11 Comments

3 Inspiring Mompreneurs for the Aspiring CreativeDreaming of creating a business?  Would you love to bring in some additional income, but not sure how to juggle your time as a mom?  I want to share with you 3 inspiring mompreneurs for the aspiring creative.

When I was in college we had email. And that was it. Oh, and the fax machine. I hadn’t even heard of the internet. So as a woman, I had two choices: Career woman or Stay-at-home-mom. So I got to hand it to the generation behind me that rode the internet wave and developed their own choices. Out of this generation has sprung the  Mompreneur movement. Mompreneurs want to develop their interests on the side while keeping family a priority. So if you are dreaming of a future business here are 3 inspiring mompreneurs for the aspiring creative.

3 Inspiring Mompreneurs for the Aspiring Creative

Being a mom is a sacrifice. There is no way around it. If you want to raise little ones and try to do your best to train them it takes a lot of work and focus!  I love how the mompreneur recognizes that it does takes an effort to raise children.  It is also incredibly healthy to recognize that as moms we have a lot of talents and gifts.  As I mentioned in an earlier post here it is a challenge balancing our passions and priorities.  Mompreneurs have opened many new doors and outlets for aspiring entrepreneurs.

Perhaps, you have been running a business idea around in your head.  Or you would love to alleviate some stress in your home by increasing the income in your household.  Well, I would be thrilled to introduce you to several ladies who can help you on your journey.  Here are 3 inspiring mompreneurs for the aspiring creative that you are going to love!

Crystal Paine of Money Saving Mom and Your Blogging Mentor

Crystal has been blogging at Money Saving Mom since 2007 so she has a lot of experience and staying power.  Her website Money Saving Mom focuses on frugal living by sharing tons of deals from stores and the internet along with weekly grocery trips and meal planning.

But that is only the foundation.  Crystal has written books, created eCourses, uses Instagram, Facebook and Facebook Live.  She also features her weekly, “A Peek into Our Lives,” for her blog readers.

Crystal is a visionary, an A type but also a self-professed introvert.

Crystal Paine is always striving forward, trying new ideas whether personally or professionally.  And I appreciate that.

She also has the courage to say when something didn’t work or to take a new road for her family.  She has a conservative focus and strives to genuinally help her readers!  Anyone who has ever thought of owning their own business will find loads of information by watching this mompreneur.3 Inspiring Mompreneurs for the Inspiring Creatives

She has some awesome, doable course like her Make-Over Your Morning or her latest the Say Good-bye to Survival Mode that you will want to check out.  Dream of becoming a writer and blogger? Her new blog Your Blogging Mentor will encourage you on your blogging journey.  She has a brand new course, Blog Start-Up 101 for the newbie blogger that breaks down the steps to starting a blog at a very affordable price!!

Her attorney trained husband now works at Money Saving Mom, and he is definitely hands on with the business and family.  I appreciate how she shares that her husband helps out, from grocery shopping, running errands, and picking up kids because I used to not understand how she did it all.  In my family, I’m married to the visionary so life runs a little differently:)

Beth Anne at Brilliant Business Moms

Beth Anne at Brilliant Business Moms is focused on helping moms spend time growing their business while raising their families.  So you will find encouragement, funny mom stories and actionable steps to grow your business geared to the busy mom.   And her website is like eye candy.  It’s so girly and pretty you have to LOOK just for beauty’s sake:)

You will want to listen to the Brilliant Business Mom’s podcast.3 Inspiring Mompreneurs for the Inspiring Creative Brilliant Business Moms

I just love listening to Beth Anne’s podcast as she is so positive.  You can’t help but learn something every episode and be greatly encouraged.

I don’t have an iphone so I listen to her on the app Castbox or Player FM on my android phone!  Whether you are just dreaming of owning a business or in the middle of it, you are going to LOVE Brilliant Business Moms.

If you go to her website you can sign up for her free Pinterest class and also listen to her podcast from there.  She sells a planner that is beautiful and meant to be a planner and mom journal all in one!  Her new one is coming out soon!  She also mentions Etsy often so if you enjoy crafting you will truly enjoy her blog.

Now, her children are younger than mine, so we are in different stages in that regard.  She talks about babies and pregnancies a little more than I can relate to.  But I think most moms will enjoy the reality break from all the business ideas.

Abby Lawson at Just a Girl and Her Blog

Abby at Just a Girl and Her Blog is a decorator that loves to organize.  Even her blog is super clean and organized appearing!3 Inspiring Mompreneurs for the Aspiring Creative

I discovered Abby at Just a Girl and Her Blog when I signed up for her free 10 Day Blogging Quickstart opt-in on her blog.  I loved it and found it so full of great information that when I decided to formally take the blogging plunge I purchased her Building a Framework: The Ultimate Blogging Handbook course.

Her course for new bloggers, Building a Framework, covers all the information you will need to start your first blog and has some great tech tutorials.

Abby’s husband Donnie is one of the great incentives to her package.  He is a tech guy who actually speaks “non-tech”! Genuis!  Love it!  I could actually tell what it was he was saying, and he doesn’t assume that you know a whole bunch of tech terms.

Abby’s focus is her family and her home which I can totally relate to.  She is also open about her blogging journey. Abby Lawson stands out to me because again she is another blogger who has not just settled for one income stream.  She has created courses and written books.  Abby has also started a YouTube channel to showcase all her organizational ideas.  Her organizational skills are way beyond what I will ever attain, but I love how she is trying out different mediums to showcase her gifts and talents.

What is the Next Step for You?

So, I wish we were sitting down face to face.  I would love to hear some of your thoughts about this post.  Have you been imagining creating a product for a while?  Do you have a talent that you would love an outlet?  Would you enjoy teaching a class in your community?

Whether you have a huge 6 figure type goal or just desire to grow I want to encourage you.  You are so uniquely gifted.  So treasure your talents and grow by surrounding yourself with friends who challenge you and information that inspires you!

Now go check out one of these 3 Inspiring Mompreneurs for the Aspiring Creative!
