Q: What is your proudest business moment thus far?
Lisa: We began SMF with three girls in one park in March 2006 and now we have over 120 members and 7 locations. To have reached that many moms in such a short time makes me very proud.
Stephanie: Reaching 100 members. That number seemed so far away when we first started as a business, but we were amazed how quickly it became a reality for us.
Q: Any tried and true secrets to the balancing act?
Lisa: Kids and hubby always come first and everything falls into place from there.
Stephanie: I try to designate "work time" and "family time" throughout the day, and during each of those times I try to focus 100% of my attention on that.
Q: What gets you through the day?
Lisa: My boys and a few Double Stuff Oreos for fuel now and then.
Stephanie: My family. My husband supports me in this business venture and always lends good advice, and my children make me smile and laugh out loud each and every day.
Q: Your take on partnering with a friend.
Lisa: Partnering is always a challenge. Schedules, Routines, etc., are always different however, Stephanie brings to the table a whole different skill set that is a huge benefit to partnering. Stephanie: I enjoy having a partner, especially one who is a friend. It gives us a reason to spend more time together. The only downfall is that we spend more time together as business partners and less time together as friends, it is hard to find time to get together just for fun.
Q: How do you relax?
Lisa: Relax? What’s that?!?! My idea of relaxing involves my husband, my boys, lunch at the beach, NO LAUNDRY, a good book (nothing mommy related or a mindless fashion magazine.
Stephanie: Snuggle time with my children. Relaxing with my boys and reading stories is one of my favorite times of the day.
