Can I quote you on that? 

You can have a little bit of time or a lot of time. You can be busy and not grow your business. If you want to grow, you have to be strategic with your time. - Dana
When I had babies, I got a wrap and a stand up desk and made work happen. - Dana
As moms and entrepreneurs, it is so important that we let to see our kids work. It gives them an opportunity to make a connection. - NJ 
My toddler knows when i'm working because I work at the same place all the time. My laptop stays at my desk... it doesn't go anywhere else in the house. - NJ 
I'm working hard now to grow my business so that when my kids are school aged, I can shut down my work at 3:00 pm when they get home from school. - Dana 
I have really tight time boundaries because of the way motherhood (and having kids at home) is intersecting with business. And I'm okay with that.- NJ
