This week, I’m with the wonderful Crystal Paine, otherwise known as MoneySaving Mom. Crystal and I started our online careers at similar times. We both pioneered what it looked like to be a mom and an entrepreneur and do it all surrounded by kids.
Crystal has grown a brilliant company and is the epitome of a smart girl. Full disclosure, she is one of my business coaching clients and I say that makes her even smarter. I'm thrilled for you to hear all the behindthescenes information of Crystal's business.
Crystal Paine is the founder of MoneySavingMom.com, host of The Crystal Paine Show podcast, and New York Times bestselling author of Say Goodbye to Survival Mode, and MoneyMaking Mom.
In her latest book, The TimeSaving Mom: How to Juggle a Lot, Enjoy Your Life, and Accomplish What Matters Most, Crystal offers practical steps, simplified systems, and timesaving hacks to help you wrap your time and energy around what matters most in your life — even when you feel pulled in a thousand different directions.

Favorite quotes:
7:10 “There were a lot of failures, trials, errors, mistakes, and missteps along the way, but I look back and really feel like that was what set me up for success because I learned so much through making a lot of mistakes and doing things wrong.”
19:35 “If I could go back and do it again, I would’ve gotten help way earlier, and I also wouldn’t have said yes to so many things.”
26:21 “In my own home, stepping away from the internet multiple times a day and having Sunday where I am offline has been so good for my soul.”
33:35 “So doing a few things very strategically to just increase your engagement really makes a difference overall in what posts are being seen.”
39:15—”Go into building a business recognizing that there is going to be a lot of work on the front end and be willing to put in the work. I think a lot of people don’t succeed because they quit too soon.”

My Best Strategy for Overcoming Procrastination
This week, I’m sharing a tip called negative visualization. It’s imagining what could happen if we don’t do something, letting us see the cost of inaction and makes us more likely to take that first step in work, health, or friendships. Pick one thing you’ve been putting off and start this today.

Recommendations (54:37 video)
My fun recommendation this week is a little charger that goes on your keychain to charge your Apple watch. If you have the same problem I do, your Apple watch dies all the time. You can use it to charge your watch during the day so it’s charged when you need it.
