If there were ever some powerful emotions that set forth in a woman on the onset of Motherhood, it is surely love, patience and guilt – in that order.

Last week, T and I woke up bright and early to send the Hubs off to work and then headed to our local playgroup where they were having a Christmas Party. Everyone commented positively on her new hairstyle and said how much it suited her. They even wanted to know where to get the marvelous pixie cut for themselves, not their children.

As usual, T played in the sandpit despite my complaints and got her jeans all sandy and damp. Then, due to her love for small babies, had to touch, pat and give more soft toys to a sleeping baby whose mother was frantically waving her hands around her baby to avoid T from touching her peaceful bub. Alas, T, my clumsy elephant foot toddler, tripped and kicked the left foot of the baby waking him up as his mother rocked him desperately back to sleep. After allowing her a whole truck of Dunkin’ Donuts, I tussled with T to leave the party for some grocery shopping where I got her a pink camera that she busied herself with making every stranger at the supermarket, “Smile! Don’t MOVE!! Smile! WAIT! DON’T MOVE!!!”

When we finally made it home, she refused lunch. Well, what did I expect after all those sugar donuts. Stupid Mommy.

Because she had wound me up ALL morning with her various scheming acts, including refusing to walk when I had 5000 grocery bags to carry, I raised my voice when I strapped her into her high chair and instructed her to EAT her lunch. I’d call out every 10 minutes to remind her that she was supposed to be EEEEEEATing her lunch whilst I put the groceries away and started preparations for dinner.

No reply.

Whenever I popped my head out of the kitchen to check on her, she’d give me that look.

That look that told me, “I’m very sleepy but I’m so scared of you, Mommy, so I’m trying to eat my lunch.”

When I finally chopped the vegetables I needed to and cleaned up, I wiped my hands on some freshly laundered tea towels and walked out to focus on my next task of getting T to finish her lunch. This is what I was greeted with:

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
