AN ISOLATED MOTHERS JOURNEY TO SUCCESS personal story W R I T T E N B Y K A R A V A I N A You started your business from home to work around your kids, but after 6 months you are struggling to juggle everything; and to stay focused on your business, and life in general. I understand you! I’ve been there too and sometimes, I still am. What I disliked most was the isolation I felt working on my own as well as struggling to deal with a unique and challenging toddler. It was supposed to be fun... right? It was 3 and a half years ago when I made the decision to join a Direct Sales / MLM company so I could earn some income whilst I stayed home with my newborn baby. Little did they tell me I’d spend more time trying to build the business than actually with my child. This was a company where I’d met so many amazing people, who inspired and motivated me, yet I felt so isolated at home with my baby. I just struggled. I couldn’t put my finger on what it was or why, but I just didn’t have my shit together. Seemingly on social media everyone thought my life was good. I bragged, I posted about the good times and fun things, posted the inspirational quotes that everyone was sharing on Facebook, yet I struggled behind closed doors and couldn’t bring myself to tell anyone or talk about it. I had a 5 year old son who was excelling at school, who was placid, sensitive and loving that was easy to parent. But all of a sudden I also had a 10 month old who would scream, and scream, and scream and have complete meltdowns…….who knew that Thor could show up in a 10 month old child and I’d have to put my Hulk suit on to contain him. I wasn’t coping. I’d cry, I’d scream back, I’d cry again and then I’d cry some more. He didn’t scream from hunger, as he was thriving. It was sheer determination to break me... or that’s what I felt anyway. What I’ve since learnt (as it continued on but the tantrums and behavior have improved) is that he’s a very determined boy to get his own way and lacks the verbal language to communicate.
