120: Babies and Business Ownership with Derilyn Freeman
Manage episode 409440232 series 3562315
The reality of being a parent and running a business probably doesn’t match the idealized vision we have before becoming parents. It’s hard work, and there’s a shift that happens in how you view and spend your time. Time becomes much more precious.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Derilyn Freeman, a financial planner and new mom, about how she got into financial planning, what it’s like running a business with a new baby, and the importance of setting boundaries around your time. She’s also sharing why it’s important to have a financial planner when you run a business and making sure that you connect with that person when sharing something as personal as your finances.
What you’ll find in this episode:
[02:27] How a surprising medical diagnosis in her family led Deri to her work in financial planning, and why she’s in it for the long haul
[06:19] What it was like to have a newborn while being a business owner
[10:57] How the structure in her business changed now that she is a parent, the importance of setting really clear boundaries about how you spend your time, and things she has let go of
[16:14] How Deri was surprised to find herself a more patient person in both her personal and professional life after having a baby
[18:27] Why it’s important to have a financial planner as a business owner and entrepreneur, Deri’s advice for someone who is hesitant to work with a financial planner, and how to work with Deri
