Sometimes you have to just trust your gut and take the leap of faith. Gabrielle has created a life around something she has found a passion for, allowing her to create the freedom and flexibility she was looking for. While still having a passion for animals her path has taken her in a different direction. Listen and see how.

By utilizing the Eisenhower Matrix, you can divide your tasks into 4 different boxes and be able to focus on what is most important, schedule what is important but not urgent, delegate everything you can and then don’t do the things that don’t serve a purpose in your business.
The Eisenhower Box: How to be More Productive
To Do: Draw a big box on your paper and then divide that box into 4 little boxes.
Label the first box- Do First Label the second box – Schedule Label the third box – Delegate Label the fourth box – Don’t do
5 time management tips when working with the Eisenhower Matrix
Putting things to-do on a list frees your mind. But always question what is worth doing first.
Try limiting yourself to no more than eight tasks per quadrant. Before adding another one, complete the most important one first. Remember: It is not about collecting but finishing tasks.
You should always maintain only one list for both business and private tasks. That way you will never be able to complain about not having done anything for your family or yourself at the end of the day.
Do not let you or others distract you. Do not let others define your priority. Plan in the morning, then work on your stuff. And in the end, enjoy the feeling of completion.
Finally, try not to procrastinate that much. Not even by over-managing your to-dos.
Prioritizing tasks by urgency and importance results in 4 quadrants with different work strategies: https://www.eisenhower.me/eisenhower-matrix/

I love when women follow their hearts and it leads them down a path they had never imagined when the universe aligns you with what you need to be doing and it works out. Even when you think it may not. In this interview, Kim tells her story of how she became a small business owner.
More About Kim
Growing up, Kim never imagined being a therapist. Actually, when she was in kindergarten she wanted to be a tree.
Her parents believe in natural healing, so, growing up Kim did get massage and chiropractic. Kim went to college to be a teacher but after a few years, she came to the conclusion that college wasn’t for her.
Kim’s still not sure what drew her to massage, but, after her first day of massage school, she realized she had found her passion.
Her passion is healing and facilitating the well being and harmony of the body, mind, and spirit. Kim uses her intuition to guide her through each session. Every client is different so no session will be the same. Through Kim’s technique of massage therapy and reiki, physical stresses of the body and mind are relieved. This allows the body to naturally begin the process of healing.
Kim has discovered through her experience that when you commit to getting massage therapy on a regular basis you will feel healthier, happier, and revitalized. She invites you to experience and enjoy the difference.
Kim is a nationally certified & licensed massage therapist. She graduated from the Core Institute of Massage Therapy in 2001. She is certified in pregnancy and infant massage which is now one of her specialties as well as being a Doula. Kim is proud of having the privilege to provide and help women have a positive birthing experience. Kim was trained in Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy™ in 2006. For a complete healing experience, Kim can balance the flow of energy using Teiki and Meditation.
I love when I talk to a mom and she knows there was more to life than just being a mom. Being a stay at home mom is a tough job and is not made for everyone, one thing I love about this interview with Caroline Sakla is she knew she wanted more out of life and knew there could be a balance between a business owner and mother.
In this interview we hear about she signed a lease, then the day after found out she was pregnant with her second child, opened a business with an 18-month-old and giving birth in less than a month!
Find Out More About Caroline:
How it all started – My name is Caroline Sakla and I am mommy to 18-month-old Jacob (soon to also be mommy to baby Chloe) and wifey to Andrew. I am a former educator turned stay-at-home mommy turned Little Explorers founder and Leader. I have a bachelors degree in communications and a masters degree in the arts of teaching. The reason behind the start of Little Explorers is a desire to foster a community for me, my child and my husband. A place where I know my child is safely receiving the social, physical and cognitive development that his little explorer brain requires. Knowing that other mamas strive for the same wishes for their children; I sought to create a place where all this is possible. I also needed Little Explorers for myself. A place to meet like-minded mamas and nurture my friendships and creativity. I have researched many child development curriculums and searched for the best team of leaders to offer our little explorers the most playful learning experiences they desire and deserve. I hope you decide to try your first class for free and see for yourself. Little Explorers is so much more than just a play space, its a nurturing community.

take the leap to the next level for their businesses.
From systems and processes to leadership and networking skills, Bella has coached pet
sitting businesses since 2007 and published some of the most comprehensive research on

and Have a Balanced Life uses popular breeds as a metaphor for the types of personalities
that work best on a team.
Bella has always been a trailblazer in the pet industry, forging a path for others to follow.
Bella won the National Pet Sitting Business of the Year award by 25, built and sold her first
company by 30 and her second company by 34. She was also selected as one of 35
Entrepreneurs Under 35 in the Arizona Republic.
After her micro-preemie daughter, who weighed only 12 oz., was born in July 2014, Bella
sold her pet sitting business and now lives out her passion to be a mom and wife while
using her business experience to inspire, motivate, and challenge business owners through
coaching, consulting, and speaking. She has been featured in Entrepreneur, Huffington Post,
NBC, ABC, FOX, NPR, and more. Her podcast, Bella in your Business is popular for business
owners both in and out of the pet industry.
