To ALL my Stay at home moms! Oprah and Marcus, do a show to help them PLEASE!

Posted on Apr 27, 2008 5:41 PM

Hi Everyone,

I contemplated long and hard whether or not to write this post. But after one of the posters wrote me this beautiful post, I decided it wasn't about me and how I would be perceived but about thousands of lives that could be changed. I have read post after post of people who are so unhappy and hurting. Many don't know what they are going to do. Please read Echkart's book and take Marcus' class IT WILL help you. Even if you are a stay at home mom.

My name is Erika and I was on the first Webcast with Oprah and Eckhart. I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO grateful for Oprah and EVERYTHING SHE HAS DONE.

I no longer work in the Corporate world and it wasn't by choice some 6 years ago. When I called to see what my schedule would be after being on bedrest for 3 months and 6 weeks maternity leave, I was told they couldn't afford to hire me back! Part of me was crushed and the other part was relieved because I struggled with the decision to put this beautiful blessing of a baby boy, who I almost lost, into a daycare, just to pay the bills.

Long story short, I was one of the most skeptical and fearful people of any type of business from home as one could be. But I was introduced to a Home Business by a neighbor some 5 years ago that changed every aspect of my life. I was now a believer, I could really be at home and make the same if not more money than I did in my old job, LEGALLY!

Well, that was 5 years ago, in one month I made more than my husband monthly pay. My neighbor who is now my bestfriend is able to finance homes for people who wouldn't normally get a home and he works from home! And is a Stay At home DAD! A single mom who's child was dying and needed money to pay the hospital bills, is now a Millionaire.

I said all that not to advertise, but to tell ALL the people, not just stay-at-home moms. If you aren't happy working and you know that you want to be at home and not just "be a mom" or sit a home all day, then you need to educate yourselves. HEAR ME! There are friends who are in the same business I am in and make 6 FIGURES, 7 FIGURES A YEAR FROM HOME! We file our taxes and guess what? The IRS gives us more tax deductions than a Salon Owner, Teacher, or Car Dealership Owner.

There is a book I want you to get. I read it and it blew my mind! It is entitled, "Why We Want You To Be Rich" by Donal Trump and Robert Kiyosaki and "Who Stole The American Dream" by Burke Hedges. You can find it on the Amazon website and any bookstore.

I wanted to share this with you in hopes that those who are tired of working and getting no where can build their dreams and not work in jobs that they are unhappy in.

Oprah teaches us to live our best lives. One poster said it best, that I reminded her of Oprah. As I go up I also have a hand pulling others up with me.

Please educate yourselves. Find out what works for you. If it is working outside the home then you need to take control then and let Marcus help you. If you are tired of having a boss and want to have the life of your dreams, look into the numerous legitimate Home Business, that can help you do that. Make sure to do your research. I am part of a Company listing in Forbes and Business Week magazines. Built on integrity! That's what you want!

You are welcomed to send me a pivate message if you need help in finding the right business for you. We have information that will educate you on how to find the right home business for you.

God bless all of you!

Like Oprah says, "It's time to live your best life"

Thanks for your time and help,

Hi Erika,

I too am a stay at home Mom. Sadly not by choice. The government contractor I worked for laid off half the field works and half the office staff due to the ecomedy. I was the Receptionist. That was a year ago and i've been blessed that my spouse has been able to keep all the balls in the air with a big lifestyle change for us all. Things have gotten so tight that I now need to go back to work for the money. I haven't been able to find employment in my area so I've been playing with the idea of owning my own business. I would love more infomation you may have on different avenues for stay at home moms running a business.

Thanks,

Sheila

Erika,

How would I find a good stay at home job for me. I am currently a full time student , full time mom and my job just laid me off because they had no more places for me to work with a schudle that I have set ujp for school. I have been looking for some time and just never found the right one. AEvery stay at home job I found was a scam. Please help me in finding a stay at home job.

Sincerly,

Sharon in St.Louis

Hi Sheila, I am sorry for what you are going through. Too many people are being laid off and are in this terrible situation. It's a blessing your husband is still doing well. I do understand though about your need to to look for employment again. As I said in my post, there are MANY reputable business out there that will enable you to not have to work outside the home. The key as I told another mom is toe educate yourself. Learn which business will work for you and your family, your personality, etc. I have a video that helps others learn how the concept of the Home Business Industry works and what to look for. It has nothing in it about what I do, I just use to help point others in the right direction. You can email me at erika@hilliardgroup.net for the link.

Also, please go out and get this book, it is new called Cash In A Flash, Fast Money in Slow times by our good friends Mark Victor Hansen & Robert Allen. It will really help you.

Stay encouraged and God bless!

Erika

Hi Sharon,

wow, I remember when I was a full time student and a working full time at UPS some years ago. Just reading your post brought back memories. I know how you feel. Unfortunately, I do not know how the home jobs worked. I looked into a few when I was let go but I didn't want to be tied down with a job from my home so I chose the home business route. Have you heard of a site called Cafemom? There you can join and connect with other moms who have jobs they do from home. You can also visit some of the Hotel Chains sites like Hilton or Sheraton, they have jobs for people to take Hotel reservations from home as well.

Just remember you should not have to pay any money to work for a Company from your home. If you are wanting to have a legitimate income-producing business you will need to invest. You must research and educate yourself.

Let me know if that helps.

Hi Anna,

Thank you for your kind words. That was my intent to open eyes of everyone I could. I am so happy to see so many people taking charge of their lives and not leaving it up to someone else.

When I started my business I was blessed to have the right one to fit my family, my personality and my goals. I am seeing many people start home businesses without a clue of what it will take and if it is a right fit for them. Most of us do this for the time and financial freedom. It wasn't easy but it was worth it and is better than having any job we have ever had.

You have two sons, what are their ages? Are you a single mom or married? If married how does your spouse fill about you having a business from home. How much time do you have to invest? Do you understand how the home business Industry works. How much income are you wanting to earn? What do you love to do?

Those are just some of the questions I ask others who are looking. We also show a very informative and life changing video so they can understand how we make the incomes we do and how to choose to right business that will give them what they are so desperatly needing.

There are thousands of business out there, many good and many bad. If you won't to see the video you are welcome to email me and I will gladly give you access to it. It does not talk about my business at all. You can send me your email in a private message if you don't want to place it here.Or just email me at erika@hilliardgroup.net

Hi Erika,

I left my job for the help of my children. The job had me working long hours because the Position I was in, which relied on me being on the premises while open. Well, Being a mother I started noticing things with my older son, his grades and testing were starting to change for the worse. I felt that it was time I would put them first. I quit my job and now I have started a Family Child Care Home. However, the process was very long and my husband and I have used up our savings. I have yet to enroll the capacity of children needed to help my husband. Needless to say, we need financial help. However, this is not our only problem we are facing. My oldest son, whom I noticed some changes. Well now that I am actually home with the two of them, I have been able to provide more quality time with them. During this, I have noticed some behavior changes with my oldest. To make a long story short, Doctors are saying that he may possibly have ADHD. In order to properly diagnose it, he has to go to a Therapist and go through series of test to confirm and so forth. Because we have private insurance, and because my husbands job is the only income that is firm right now, it is hard to take my son in for his visits. We are a family were his income according to State, exceeds the normal therefore, we are not able to get any assistance.

I have been trying to research and wanted to know if there are any grants or any help for those starting a small business and for families of ADHD?

Thank you for your help,

RJ
