It’s a WAHMderful Life Workshop

Leave a Comment

What it’s like to be a work-at-home mom (WAHM)? I happened to preview what it’s like to be one after I gave birth to Gwen and I was on a 2-month maternity leave, I had an online job I got from Odesk aside from blogging on the side. Before I got pregnant, I had a successful online shop at Multiply,  Pink Fortune. I love accessories and that’s what I sell then. With that experience, I love the fact that I’m earning even if I’m in my jammies.

The idea of being a WAHM always crosses my mind whenever I have yaya problems…

Of course I know that there are plenty of possibilities online (writing gigs, data entry, reserach, social media) and offline through home-based business, but some problems I might face being a WAHM is TIME MANAGEMENT and CONTINUITY. I really lack time management skills and the idea of working at home with all the temptations like the TV, the bed, etc. is so not for me. Also, I noticed that I easily get uninterested after a month or two with my online jobs that’s why I’m afraid that I can’t have a stable income.

Martine of DaintyMom.com, on the other hand, is having a WAHMderful life already! She found her bliss and she wants to help us moms to have a successful WAHM life.

What’s your idea? The Unilab Link-Up

Leave a Comment

Do you have an idea that’s been sitting inside your brains but can’t figure out how to immortalize it? Don’t just shook it off, it may be the weirdest or the most impossible one but who knows, it may be something that will revolutionize the health and wellness needs of Filipinos.

I’m calling out to all housewives and househusbands out there. I’ve been thinking since last week why mommy bloggers are a force to reckon with, and why PR companies sends out product reviews for mommy bloggers. This is because mommy bloggers are using various products 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. May it be household cleaning products, beauty products, medicines, kitchen utensils, household appliances, name it and mommy bloggers might have used and tested it all. So to be called an expert on a variety of things is just right on. Your experiences and solutions to everyday challenges might be the INNOVATION that people at Unilab might be looking for!
