I’m so excited to be kicking off my Momma of the Week features tonight! Going forward I will feature a short interview with a Momma who is doing her thing balancing a hustle(s) along with motherhood. Follow these ladies and let’s continue to support one another! There really is room for us ALL! First up is Terina Nicole.
Name: Terina Nicole
Momma to: 1.5 (currently 5 months pregnant with my second child).
Based in: Philly area
Hustle(s): Product designer at Jypsea Leathergoods. Design Instructor. DIY Blogger (terinanicole.com) and Co-founder of The Creative’s Containers, a subscription service of fly DIY projects sent to your door with all of the tools, materials and instructions to make beautiful jewelry and accessories of your own (thecreativescontainer.com). Currently, I’m part-time but I am sometimes full-time and I plan to run my businesses full-time once the baby is here.
How does she balance it all? Google Calendar! LOL Every single thing goes on the calendar so that nothing slips through the cracks and I don’t over-extend myself too often. Between all that I do at with my daughter and her school, my community involvement and 3 distinct (but related) businesses, plus a child on the way and a husband; it’s easy to feel exhausted so I make sure I spend a day each week indulging in self-care to reboot! Also, I’ve gotten comfortable with saying NO. I can’t be everywhere at once so I do what I can and when I can’t do anymore, I say NO guilt-free.
