Day 13 /84

Some say that 13 is an unlucky number...
I never really understood why - but it's never been the case for me 🤷‍♀️

So - let's try and write some ad ideas and see if 13 can be my lucky number and we can find the HOOK I am looking for... ready for a brain dump?!

AUDIENCE: Families that want to be present for their kids.
Who are willing to work hard and put in the effort while the kids are at school - but want to be present after school. Who want to go to assemblies, or pick up and drop off, or sports days, or help on excursions... to just be available and fully present if and when they can. But still staying financially stable / abundant! and provide a life that is easy.

HOOK IDEAS;
1. Missed another assembly?
2. The best part of my day is school pick up...
3. The worst part of my day - racing to school pick up.
4. STRESSED AF. ✌️
5. They notice...

BODY IDEAS;
1. It was something I always imagined after I had kids. Being present - no excuses...
Until I had to answer to someone else about being present for my kids. How is it, that my biggest priority is now sitting in the back seat and I am missing out on something I always thought would be a given.
How was it that working for a company is more important than my child being acknowledged for something amazing they have done? Missing out on assemblies / school pick up / sports days / excursions... what ever was happening - was never part of the vision. I'm putting my priorities back in the driving seat and here's how...
2. Without a doubt being able to be there for my kids at school pick up is one of my favourite things. I know after a day at work - I just want to go home and have a safe space to decompress.and Im sure they want that too...
3. 1.54pm and I am in a mad rush to get out of the office, down to the car park, and back to school by 2pm. It's ridiculous. And I do it every bl**dy day! This wasn't the job I had envisioned. No wonder my stress levels are through the roof. Everything feels like a mad rush... And I hate it!
4. Trying to fit in the excercise, 10k steps, school lunches, school drop off, 8 hour work day, school pick up, shopping, washing, cleaning, quality family time, read a book, work on your mindset, 'me' time and maybe a wave to hubby as we pass each other in the hall way occasionally... we're 'livin the dream' - what the heck kind of dream is that?! I AM STRESSED AF! There never feels like enough hours in the day to do all that sh*t - and if you don't do it every day, you want build a habit and everything will fail. You know how it is... Well I decided to say F8CK IT - let's see how that goes...!
5.They notice when you're there. They notice when you're not. They notice what you do. They notice what you eat. They notice how you behave. They notice the way you speak. And they certainly notice how you treat people... So - what are you teaching your kids...? To be stressed and 'too busy' for anything? To throw together whatever you have in the cupboard at the end of a long day? Or to prioritise your health, wealth and family...?

Urgh - my brain is not working and none of these quite feel right - but it's a start.
I think I like number 4 the most... I think I resonate with that one the most right now... But who knows it might be one of the others tomorrow...! 🤣

Happy days.
