Hi everyone,
I've just finished reading the Great Rat Race Escape a few days ago (again, a masterclass from MJ !).
One of the major takeaways for me is related to my situation: getting unscripted while having small kids.
As I am in this situation right now, I read the book through this paradigm and I found it interesting.
My situation is: I am married and have 2 kids (4 y.o. and 6 months old). I am working at a 40 h / week job while my wife stopped working when we welcomed our first kid and is currently still at home. We started a side hustle in March (to gain a first experience & my wife needed to do something else than only taking care of kids) and we are launching a bigger business in September.
My question is : are there some people on this forum who were (or are) on the same situation ? How did you handle the situation ? We are not affraid of putting a lot of work but (and I don't use it as an excuse, it is a fact) taking care of small kids also takes a lot of time.
Some advices or return of experience would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your hindsights.
