Summary
Leah is fed up with people telling her how much time she should be spending with her kids and how much passion she should have for her business. She believes that these decisions should be made by her alone, as her business and family are her own. She finds it frustrating that people without kids try to dictate what she should or should not be doing. Her point is that everyone should make decisions for themselves, and not be influenced by others' opinions.
Leah is addressing the issue of people telling business owners how to run their businesses, particularly mothers. She expresses that it is totally fine if someone has a suggestion to make but it should not be pushed onto other people as the only way to do it. They point out that it is disheartening to be told you're not doing things the right way and it's not necessary to sacrifice things to make a seven figure business.
Leah suggests that people should do what works best for their family and that it doesn't have to be done right away. Leah also expresses their frustration with people who advertise that they have made a successful business by only working 4 hours a week. In conclusion, Leah encourages people to give advice as a suggestion and not dictate to business owners.
Leah is addressing the issue of how mums in business are often spoken to in a patronising or condescending manner. Leah passionately states that mums in business should never be dictated to or told they are doing something wrong, as they are doing their best to create a lifestyle and opportunity for their children. Leah encourages mums in business to be open to guidance and suggestions, but ultimately to not let anyone tell them they are doing it wrong. Leah urges people who do say these things to shut the fuck up and reminds mums in business that they do not have to put up with this kind of behaviour.
