Hey everyone! I’m Sara -> the MOM and creator of It’s cool, MOM!ย
I wanted to start off with a disclaimer for all of you lovely people…
The first thing you should know about me is that I tend to be quiet and shy but I sure do love to write!
So, prepare yourself for the journey of a lifetime! ๐
I mean it! Get some popcorn and make yourself comfy! And welcome to my life!ย
The next thing you need to know about me is that I’m also a wife AND a business woman! Although, my husband tends to say I forget about him… ๐
My wild, wonderful family and I are currently living in the wild, wonderful, city of Las Vegas! There is always something new to do and explore here and believe it or not it is super family friendly. We absolutely love it!

As a mom working from home, I also homeschool my girls.
When it came to making that decision, we did not take it lightly. We went back and fourth. We had many conversations and contemplated whether it was the right choice. Once we started, however, we never second guessed our decision.

I get to work with my girls daily and teach them new things (I even feel like I’ve gained more knowledge from relearning this stuff). But most importantly, I get to help build their character and self-esteem, while teaching them how to be students and future business women. This is so exciting and rewarding!

Homeschooling can be overwhelming but also very freeing.
Being able to homeschool allows us the freedom to move and go whenever we need to.
It allows us the freedom to do more hands on activities while traveling too.Last winter, after teaching them about all of the monuments and some of our history, we took a trip to ๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐๐ผ๐ป ๐.๐. There they could see all of these sites first hand. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had as a parent.

As a homeschool momma, I also have the freedom to run my own businesses.
I absolutely love building a curriculum for our homeschool experience and I have made a career out of it.
My husband and I also have our own business consulting and financial firm, ๐3 ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ย and we are on a mission to help 250 people startup their very own businesses within the next 12 months!
We also are assisting our daughters who are working on building an online boutique store for their brand, ๐๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ธ๐ & ๐๐ผ where they look to empower young girls with positivity and girl power!

How the heck did I get here? It didn't happen over night...
I worked in a restaurant for about 12 years (during high school and college) and I got a ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฒ๐น๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฃ๐๐๐ฐ๐ต๐ผ๐น๐ผ๐ด๐. From there, I went back to working in the restaurant industry (graduated during the 2008 market crash) there literally was nothing for me to do with my degree…. after ALL.THAT.MONEY.
Fast forward to having my first baby. I worked until she was 1 year old when ๐ ๐ค๐จ๐๐ง ๐บ๐ ๐ท๐ผ๐ฏ, ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ ๐ ๐ค๐จ๐๐ง!My boss would not let me have her first birthday off even though I requested it a month in advance! They were CRAZY if they thought I was missing another minute with my beautiful baby! This fueled me to make staying at home work.
From there I ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ ๐ผ๐๐ป ๐ถ๐ป ๐ต๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ and ran it for 5 successful years. It was during this time that I realized I functioned better being my own boss.
During that time, I learned a lot about myself and my needs as a woman, a mom, and a wife. I also discovered my strengths and passion which is supporting and helping others.๐ง๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฎ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐’๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ผ๐น, ๐ ๐ข๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ.

My journey continues...
To push my dreams into action, I gained my ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฆ๐ฐ๐ต๐ผ๐ผ๐น ๐๐ผ๐๐ป๐๐ฒ๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ด and got licensed as a school counselor. I spent 2 years working in 4 different elementary buildings as the Director of a before and after school care program. During that time I created activities and curriculums, worked hand in hand with teachers and parents, managed staff at multiple buildings, kept track of multiple administrative tasks, and even built one of the programs from scratch for the 4th elementary. It was A LOT of work but I enjoyed every minute of it!
It also helped that we were living in my hometown of Ohio (small town country girl whoot whoot!) and the girls were going to my old elementary school (which is the school district I was working in). Even though I literally brought my kids to work with me, I still found myself not having much quality time with them AGAIN. ๐ ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ผ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ธ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐บ๐ผ๐บ ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ผ ๐ฏ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฒ๐ป๐ท๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ถ๐บ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐๐ถ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ so when we moved to Las Vegas, I decided being a mom was my #1 priority.

I worked hard being a homeschool mom and I battled with the balancing act of #momlife but, I kept going.
I researched, I studied, I attended trainings, and before I knew it, I had an immense understanding, several newly developed skills, and a system that could help me build any business I wanted.
It wasn’t long after that, I started putting in the real work. Doors started opening and moves were being made in my favor. ๐ ๐พ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ธ๐น๐ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐น๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐น๐น ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ผ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ต๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐ฑ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐บ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ก๐ ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ผ ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ผ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ!
Now, I’m on a personal mission to help other mommas do the same! Being a great mom, a wonderful wife, AND finding passion within a career that I love was literally my dream that I didn’t think I would ever have. ๐ก๐ผ๐ ๐’๐บ ๐น๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ถ๐!
I know not all mom dreams are the same but I hope that if you haven’t discovered yours yet, that you keep looking and you keep grinding. If anything else, ๐ ๐ต๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ณ๐ถ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐บ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฒ๐ป๐ผ๐๐ด๐ต ๐๐ผ ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฝ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ด๐ผ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ป๐๐ถ๐น ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ด๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐น๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฑ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐บ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ผ! I’m here if you need the support. I’ve got the framework to help you build YOUR goals. I can also be a GREAT listener and cheerleader! It’s time to join the pack and become a part of the It’s cool, MOM communityย (<-check it out) Let’s Connect! I look forward to chatting with you!
