As ladies, we typically desire to “have everything” and might seem like we’re losing if we’re not able to keep all the balls in the air. As a female attorney myself concerned with how I invest my time, I more than happy to share this conversational interview I had with Kellie about her brand-new Consistency Planners for busy mamas, how she manages her time as a mommy and legal representative, and how her faith in God plays a role in how she invests her time.– Kellie, thank you a lot for requiring time to address questions for me as the May member spotlight for Grace for the Grind ™ Profession Mastermind!.?. !! Let’s start with an initial question; where did
you go to law school and what kind of law do you practice? I went to Hofstra University School of Law in Hempstead, NY. I practice Property Finance as General Counsel of Supply at PeerStreet, a fintech business. I manage a team of attorneys and we manage all realty loan transactions for the business. We evaluate and negotiate loan
sale agreements, loan files, organizational files, title commitments and other due diligence items. My day-to-day is focused on managing all escalations for out of the common issues that may emerge. Wow, that sounds interesting! How did you end up as a basic counsel? I began my profession in business realty financing at a mid-sized company in Manhattan and moved onto Big Law at Bryan Cavern. When I decided to start a family, I moved in-house looking for better lifestyle.< img alt=""src ="https://ms-jd.org/files/HARMONY_PLANNER_FINAL_EDITED-10_copy1.jpg "style="height: 400px; width: 267px; float: right; "> Better lifestyle is a fantastic factor for a position modification, and gets us into the origin story of the Harmony Planners. What made you develop your own organizer? I think the very best way to remain arranged is utilizing a physical planner and once I ended up being a mommy,
I wanted a coordinator that fit this season of life. Makes sense! Who is your planner for? Hectic mothers of all ages. My goal is toassist mommies feel in control of their time so that they can handle all
of their jobs and not feel overloaded. I make sure many mommies value that! What makes this planner best for hectic mamas? What features does it have that other plannersdo not? My organizer has space for self-care,
water tracking, cleaning the home and weekly inspiring quotes for mamas. The brand-new 2020 organizer will likewise have space to catch mommy memories. That sounds amazing! I
want a coordinator with area for self-care and cleaning your house! Can females who aren’t mommies utilize the organizer lol? Definitely, the only things that currently screams
,” MOM”are the weekly quotes. Ah OK, terrific! So how do you handle being a mother and a lawyer and entrepreneur? Well I lost my first daughter, Kerrie, throughout her birth and after that I hoped so
so hard for kids. I promised Jesus that if He ever allowed me to be a mama, I would do everything in my power to appear as a present and caring mama. I now
have 2 children here on earth and I wish to keep my pledge to God. My husband and I have aid with
a full-time baby-sitter, which is really a blessing. Aside from aid within the household, I just
run a tight ship and I flourish off of regimens. During the week, I wake up in between 4:30 -5 am to hope, work on The Harmony Planners, do a short yoga practice and shower before my family wakes up. Then my spouse and I divide and conquer the early mornings. I tend to get home late, so my other half is
oftentimes on night responsibility. Saturdays are dedicated to my children, however I use their nap time to deal with the planner or rest too. Sundays are prep for the week ahead-grocery shopping, meal prep, and relaxation. I do family maintenance bit by bit each day -little load of laundry daily, floorings swept/swiffered daily, meals daily and clean down of surface areas daily I wish to make certain all of the mundane, however required tasks are finished so that I can invest concentrated time with my kids and
husband. Thank you for sharing this, Kellie! It’s stunning you are helping other mothers and appearing as a present mom

? Three methods. 1. A Great Deal Of prayer since I wish to make sure my actions line up with God’s prepare for my life. 2. In fact utilizing The Consistency Coordinator That my top priorities are laid out
in front of me. 3. Frame of mind work. I require to believe in myself, set objectives, and offer myself no option however to accomplish those objectives. Prayer, prioritization, and the
appropriate state of mind are all so essential! Prior to we finish up this interview, what other efficiency tips do you need to share for hectic attorneys, mamas, and so on? Four tips: Pray for self-control(this is a continuous prayer for me
)Brain dump weekly Organize the brain dispose into a weekly strategy by appointing dates and times to complete each job Act by doing the tasks or delegating the tasks to somebody else or erasing the job because it wasn’t crucial Self-control is an ongoing prayer for me as well!
