Welcome to my blog Real Life Balanced. As mentioned in my About Me page, I am a wife, mom, and business owner (multiple business’ actually), in addition to being.a daughter and sister. I have been married to my best friend for 25 years, and we have three beautiful daughters, ages 24, 22 and 19. My husband and I started our audio reinforcement business 22 years ago, at this time I was already an at home mom, he worked a day job as we got things rolling so it only made sense that I would manage the day to day, phone calls, bookkeeping etc of our new company.
Along this journey we as a family have lived, loved, experienced good times and bad times, and faced many of life’s challenges, but we have learned and grown both as a family and as a business. In this blog I intend to share some of our experiences, lessons and adventures. I have learned that what may work for others doesn’t always work for us, being self employed as we are, our life is very different than that of families where one or both parents work out of the home and/or have regular working hours. It has taken a lot of compromise and learning how to make things fit and work for not only our business but for our family. I hope that in sharing what we have learned along the way as well as what we will be learning in the future can help others that may face some similar challenges. In addition, I hope that I can learn from others that may come across my blog. As for now, stay tuned, as I move through the early stages of this blog, I intend to give a little more detail about what our real life is all about.
