<title><![CDATA[Bliss! Parents  discover the miracle drug that will fix everything.  08-28-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[There is nothing at all like much needed time away to help us melt away the stress of our everyday lives. How many times have we lay in a relaxing spot of cleanse and detox, vowing and determined to harness the vacation bliss so that we may carry it with us into our post-vacation lives- only to have it wiped away abrubptly the moment we step into the airport terminal? The peace and serenity seem to fade simultaneously with our suntans...
Not this time.
 
I am proud to say that it is 4 days post vacation and I am still basking in the glow of my week at the Jersey Shore where I let eager relatives chase after my kids for once. I spent hours sand sculpting (for a little taste of my work, visit here!), meditating, boogie boarding, eating a ridiculous amount of unhealthy (but necessary) calories from the boardwalk in the form of taffy, fudge, caramel popcorn and drippy cheesy pizza.
 
It was...bliss.
 
And, yes, I brought it back with me. (The bliss as well as the taffy.) So, trust me when I tell you... it is possible.
I wanted to take full advantage of this blissful state - because who knew when I would have such an opportunity again? My experiment worked! These fresh, new discoveries of myself were unexpectedly monumental!  I realized, without question, the mighty capacity we have as intelligent beings, the healing power of losing ourselves in uncriticized art, the magic of letting our creative juices flow without exposition and how to use it as an anchor when life becomes chaotic and we become jaded.
 
How easy it is for us to forget the importance of clearing away those pesky cobwebs that infest our unrested minds and hearts! Staying in a state of gratitude - even when everything seems to be falling apart- is crucial to our happiness and health. This is the answer! And yet, its so simple.
 
Sound hokey? Yep, I might think so too, if I was reading this. But before you get too comfortable in your cynicism, imagine for a moment the awesomeness of true bliss, and what it would do for you in your every day life.
 
Appropriately, this week's guest is none other than The Bliss Lady, Teri Williams. Yeah, I know. How perfect is that? I know you'll be glad you tuned in on Friday.
 
It's going to be a terrific show!]]></itunes:summary>

<title><![CDATA[Our New Generation of Entrepreneurs! 08-20-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Ally is on vacation, and the staff of OurMilkMoney.com is taking over for the second week with 2 more amazing guests!
Technology has continued to change our lives in immeasurable ways and information at the tip of our fingers has become the norm. As entrepreneurs, we know that the internet has opened the doors for business opportunities all around us.
Watch out now - here comes our tech-savvy teenagers, growing up with computers at their disposal and information-on-the-go being all they have ever known.
Two years ago, at the age of 14, Ava Anderson may not have seen herself as a teenage entrepreneur. However, an alarming special about dangers in the cosmetic industry led her on a mission to find “safe” skin care products. She bought, researched and tried products, recommending those with lower toxicity through her newly created blog. Over that year, she became increasingly frustrated with the limited choices in the marketplace.
Through a family contact, Ava made a trip to New York with her own entrepreneurial mom, Kim, to meet with a well respected skin care manufacturer. The goal was to see if they could make some safe products for Ava. That very meeting led to the start of Ava Anderson Non-Toxic, an eight month old product line currently distributed nationwide through a direct sales force and one of the fastest growing direct sales company’s in history.
We are excited to have Kim and Ava Anderson joining us this Friday to get the whole low down on filling a niche, choosing their marketing strategy, developing a direct sales force and working for a 16 year old CEO. Kim has plenty to share about running her own business while raising her children and now working for one of them! Tune in this week!]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Ally is on vacation, and the staff of OurMilkMoney.com is taking over the show with an amazing guest!
Have you ever known someone to start a direct sales business and shoot straight to the top? Someone who has had no previous experience in the industry, no special friends at the top, no magic fairy dust sprinkled on their head? Sometimes these are the “reasons” we believe others might be successful – especially when they do it quickly.
Several years ago, Mona had the opportunity to meet Allison LaMarr at an event when she was practically brand new to direct sales. She was sweet, happy and enthusiastic on the outside. What we didn’t know then was that she was a fireball raring to go straight to the top on the inside!
Over the course of the next several years, Mona watched Allison as she continuously set many impressive records with the 45 year old company. The ultimate achievement to go down in company history is leading her organization to become the fastest National Area ever! Today, in her very early thirties, she is officially “retired” from the direct sales business and embarking on a new adventure to Empower Women in Business around the world.
Are you ready to hear all her secrets?
Join us this Friday to learn more about Allison from her success tips on building a solid foundation and finding out where she is going in the future! We'll give you a little hint - it just may be a city near you!]]></itunes:summary>

<title><![CDATA[The Foundation of a Satisfying and Profitable Business 07-31-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Imagine. Dream. Create. These and a little elbow grease are all you need to kick-start a fulfilling home-based business. Most times it takes a little money too, but not always.
I went into business for myself as a single parent and trust me, I had no change in my pockets. What I did have was motivation.  I wanted to be at home to raise my kids. That was all the motivation I needed to keep my nose to the grindstone.
I knew what I loved to do and discovered more of who I was along the way. I loved people, writing and teaching.  Those were elements of my blue print.  I had a knack for communication and an ability to teach anything I learned. Those were my tools. And I was naïve enough to think I could be successful. Thank God! THAT was my investment.  These three things were the cornerstones of my home-based business.
When it comes to economic development, I believe we’re in the most fruitful period ever.  There are more opportunities for self employment now that there have been since before the industrial revolution mechanized society. We’re no longer forced to put our blood, sweat, tears, and gifts into fulfilling someone else’s dream - unless we want to, and that’s okay too. We’re free. We have choices!
Where do you stand? Is a dream or desire beckoning your attention? Would you like to spend your life doing something you love? Build your business! There’s no greater professional satisfaction than that of parenting a business from gestation to maturity - and beyond. Are you up to it? What have you got to lose?
Answering that last question will probably require more personal strength than any other leg of your journey, so be sure to examine closely before you answer.

What Have You Got To Lose?
Many will answer, “Well, I have a lot to lose; time, money, ambition… and what if I fail?”
My answer is this: In order to be successful with anything you do, be willing to set all of these concerns aside. Muster the courage to try something new; to put your ideas into action. Ascribe to the belief that,”It’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.” (Who said that?)  In our case, “It’s better to have given it all you’ve got and failed than never to have tried.” (This one’s mine.)
You’ve got a dream, you go for it.  Do your homework. Look for everything you need to support you in workin’ it baby! Find a mentor; join a networking group. Ask for support! OurMilkMoney.com is a great place to start. If you have money, spend it wisely.  If you don’t, look for free resources. They’re out there.  Google alone has several things that will support your new venture.
Begin taking steps in the direction of your dreams. Do something, anything! You will set yourself up for some level of success. If you fail - find another way. Failure is feedback. It says, “Try another path.” That’s all. Just do it differently next time.  Ask Thomas Edison, who tried over 14,000 times before he invented the light bulb.  Ask Colonel Sanders (KFC) who shopped his recipe of eleven herbs and spices 1008 times before he got a bite (pardon the pun). They didn’t quit and neither should you.

<title><![CDATA[Have Faith, Moms and Dads  07-24-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[We could all use a little faith, regardless of what size or shape it may appear in to you.
 
Whether you are transitioning into becoming a work-at-home parent, or  you've recently become the victim of a lost job, you may be looking for some kind of sign that its all going to be okay. For many of us, these unforeseen circumstances have resulted in the choice to create our own employment, but this has proven to be no easy task. We are burning the midnight oil with research, marketing, website design, job applications, and more. We are watching our bank accounts disappear, our homes get foreclosed, and our confidence slip away. Its no wonder we feel cynical, doubtful, frightened, confused and alone. We are bombarded with mixed messages from every form of media, we are working blindly in a dark tunnel without a hint of light in any direction that tells us which way to walk, and we can't help but wonder how much longer we'll be able to survive without any answers. We are missing an important ingredient.
 
Faith.
 
When I met Reverend Hilde Brooks*, I was looking for spirituality but lacking hope. It was Hilde that showed me that faith can come in all shapes and sizes. Raised Jewish but married to a Catholic, and determined to find a compromise that made sense to both of us, we'd just about given up on our search after being turned off too many times finding everything too organized or rigid.
But Hilde led a different kind of sermon. It didn't seem to matter what preconceived notions we carried with us as her teachings didn't attach itself to any one denomination over another.  Her sermons brought meaning and purpose in a world full of chaos,  optimism and conviction out of hardship, and faith when life was most challenging.
As you know, I tend to get very personal on This Little Parent Stayed Home and I love to share the things that have played a significant role in my own journey.
I want to share Reverend Hilde*.
I am honored to have her join us this week and I am confident that you will come away from Friday's show with at least a little more faith and the belief that it will all be okay.

<title><![CDATA[Finding the Fun in Being a Work-at-Home Parent 07-19-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Not every parent feels that their ideal situation is to be home with their children...
 
... and there is nothing wrong with that. Period.
But to all the parents who do want to come home and are aching to triumph over all the obstacles preventing you from being able to do just that...we are here for you!
Several times this week, I spoke to someone who told me “I really do wish I could stay home with the kids, but my husband and I like our lifestyle and don’t want to give it up.”
Maybe you feel this exact way, and if that is the case, I can’t say I blame you for feeling like there is no other alternative. But if some part of you feels your family would benefit more overall from having you at home, I hope that you will at least explore the possibilities a little further. Don't deny yourself or your family what is best simply because it feels unattainable.
What if there was a way to have it all? The truth is, LIFESTYLE is only what we make it. Big corporate salaries and paid time off doesn’t always equal posh and luxurious lifestyles. If you are looking for ways to keep the fun and enjoyment in your life,  enough to make it worth the loss of an entire income, then this is a good show to start with! Those of you who are already staying at home, you'll find a lot of value as well! This week we will be reminding you why you decided to stay home in the first place, and helping you to find the fun in your every day! Why not? You are officially the boss of your home! Together we will reawaken those childlike inhibitions and relish in the time we spend at home with our kids. 
This week, our guest is *Silvana Clark Author of Fun-Filled Parenting: A Guide to Laughing More and Yelling Less,  will be joining us to share tips and tricks on how to have free and low-cost fun (that doesn’t involve computers, videos or TV!)  easy activities, games and crafts (even if you are uncrafty!) to enjoy with your children.]]></itunes:summary>

<title><![CDATA[What we Learn from our Kids... with an intro by 4yr old Braden Loprete! 07-09-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[There is a new boss in town... its your child.
 
If you are a parent, you know that the love you have for your children fills an emptiness that neither a great career nor a sparkling house can fill. That concept is what will continue to drive us in our mission to provide top notch service from our home-based businesses without compromising our need to be great parents. We have taken our priceless, world class corporate experiences, and said so long to anyone who threatens our choice to create our own financial stability. 
This is a new business community with a new set of rules. Where else would you get away with having a conference call with screaming children in the background? How about the ability to say, “I will not have the report until tomorrow because I am volunteering in my son’s preschool”? Parent Entrepreneurs collectively agree and practice this simple principle:
Family come first. Business comes second.
By working together, and exercising the same patience with one another as we learned when we became moms and dads, we have created a fantastic new society.  Never again will we lose sight of where our loyalty lies and where it will be echoed.
This week we are proud to welcome OurMilkMoney.com member, Leta Hamilton, and author of the book The Way of the Toddler. Leta will be joining us Friday to help us explore the spiritual context of parenting. Together we will go to the heart of what it truly means to be a successful parent raising successful children.
Until then, kiss your kids and enjoy your week!]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Bravo to the volunteers who call into the show on Open Coaching Days to share their journeys with our listeners!
 
Calling in to a live radio show to talk about your personal challenges takes guts. But you know what takes even more guts? Sacrificing the stability of an entire paycheck for the chance of a different way of life. Nothing about this process is easy. You are not alone. 
It's been difficult for me to call myself an "expert" because really I am not all that different than any of you. I am figuring out how to make it work every single day. What I learn, I share. When I struggle, I share that too. I believe that there is always a solution to whatever challenges we may be having, and part of the fun is figuring it out. I am not super human. I am just enthusiastic about what I know we can achieve by working together. 
This week, listen in and support the callers who are working diligently to make their dreams come true. They are supporting YOU by sharing their journey for your listening benefit.
Mona and I are looking forward to getting to know more of you this week, and of course, helping you accomplish your goals. ]]></itunes:summary>

<title><![CDATA[Getting rid of your own obstacles 06-25-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[
This is one of my favorite shows so far. Ironically Mona and I both had a terrible week, and so did my friend Shannon. We weren't sure we'd find the right energy to do the show, and of course it ended up being our most brilliant thanks to out terrific guest, Marla Tabaka. Shannon came on as a last minute volunteer to talk about her issues with money. Marla worked her magic, and we all grew a lot from this amazing process! 
What is it that is holding you back?  Is there something that is preventing you from getting exactly where you want to be?
 
If you have a long list of reasons why you are unable to accomplish your goals, you are no different than most. We all have obstacles!  It can be frustrating, or it can make life interesting depending on the way you look at it. But if you are serious about breaking past your own limitations and achieving the kind of success you've only had in your wildest dreams, this is the show to listen to.
I met Marla Tabaka when I was first invited into the HerInsight Radio group, but it wasn't until I had the pleasure of working with her on Everyday Autism Miracles with Shannon Penrod,  that I learned what a valuable commodity she is. In less than 5 minutes she taught me a technique that has completely changed my life and empowered me to overcome my own  stubborn setbacks.  
I am so excited that Marla will be joining us this week to share some of her secrets to success, especially the tool that became so valuable to me: EFT Tapping aka The Emotional Freedom Technique. 
If you have concerns that you would like to resolve with this amazing and powerful technique, we invite you to join us and allow Marla to guide you in the experience first hand! Marla’s training and experience as a life and business coach bring powerful results to her EFT Tapping sessions. ]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Let's Hear it for the Boy! 
In the last 30 years our gender roles have changed significantly, but it is my personal feeling that the last 10 have been the closest we've come to getting it right. In this modern day society, more and more men have surrendered themselves to a greater purpose of family. Whatever that means to them, they are more willing to do what it takes to provide and nurture. Dad's everywhere are opening their minds to new possibilities and different lifestyles than what they had known in the past. Whether it be staying at home with the kids while their wife commutes into the corporate workforce, supporting the mom who has chosen to start a new business, or something else, Dads everywhere need to be given recognition for stepping up when the going got tough, and stepping back when it was someone else's turn to be supported.   
I am truly honored to be inviting these fantastic fathers to the show on Friday:
Nathan Bright, a hilarious and heart-warming guest blogger for the OMM Daddy's Den. He is a stay-at-home dad of 2 little girls, and the author of a terrific children's book "Maddi Patti and her Stay-at-Home Daddy." 
Dave Ballard and Bill Wardell, partners in Cyberhood Watch, and stay-at-home Dads who are passionate about keeping the internet safe. You can hear them on Blog Talk Radio. 
 
In addition to these fine gentleman, we will be opening up the phone lines for any other Dad's who would like to call in to the show. We are looking forward to possibly getting a few surprise visits!]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[It doesn't matter what product or service you are offering to your community. Marketing is everything. This Friday we'll be learning how to market your business like a Rock Star!!
You are not alone if you feel overwhelmed by the competition or what it takes to keep up on internet trends. Don't let these fears cloud your vision!
Instead of becoming frustrated by what you do not know, concentrate your efforts to promoting what makes you... you. Because you are the only one there is. As the only true expert on you, you are beyond your competition!
I am super excited to be introducing Craig Duswalt, my long time friend and personal business coach.  Former personal manager to Axl Rose, award winning copywriter, Artistic Director for a Los Angeles Theatre, Creative Director for an advertising agency,  professional speaker, author, and most impressively, a stay-at-home Dad,  Craig is a true inspiration!   Join us Friday for some Rock Star Expertise, and maybe if we're lucky, he'll share with us a few fun stories of what it was like to tour with Guns N' Roses. 
PS. As an added bonus Craig is giving 2 Free Passes to his 4 Day Boot Camp Seminar to 5 lucky TLPSH Listeners!]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Maybe you were just dealt a terrible hand and you didn't get the luck that others get in this lifetime. Maybe you just don't have it in you to be a success.  Maybe you are not smart enough, energetic enough, pretty enough, thin enough, or rich enough. Maybe you just don't work hard enough. Maybe your lazy. 
 
If these are thoughts that often go through your head... this week's show is for you. 
We are ALL guilty of these negative and unproductive thoughts,  so don't think you are any different . One thing is certain, we need to stop beating ourselves up for it, because that just might be the most unproductive thing of all.  The truth of the matter is that we are often clouded by our own fears and instead of taking time to conquer them, we end up getting in our own way. It's time to break past those limitations and get excited about taking the risks you were meant to take.
This week we will be talking about adopting an attitude that will change how you view your day to day life, your business, your marriage and your relationships.
Get ready to open your mind! Friday we will talk about learning to embrace everything about who you are, and how to capitalize on your individuality- which most definitely includes your imperfections. 
It's an open coaching day so we'll be opening up the phone lines for you to discuss whatever challenges you may be having.*
Pour yourself a nice glass of wine, turn up the volume and laugh along with your friends, Mona and I. We'll be here to support you through yet another week, all the while reminding you that it's the journey that matters the most.

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish, feed him his entire life."
-Confucius
 
A couple of weeks ago, I made a bold declaration. What we are working on together, is to bring parents home. One million parents as a matter of fact, is what I stated to the world. And I’m not backing down. Nope, this goal means far too much for me and even more for YOU, the parent who is longing to be home with their child and doesn’t know if they can do it. Or the one who is already working at home and wants to grow their business. Or the one who’s business is already successful, and is looking to join our mission and  connect with other work-at-home parents. 
This is our movement, folks, ARE YOU ON BOARD? If so, Let us know! Sign the Parent Collective Now!
I am going to help bring 1 million parents home, but I can’t do it without those that are willing to help themselves. It may not ever be as easy as just handing out jobs like a placement agency. That is why  the greatest gift I can give you is the resources and tools to be able to do it yourself.  
But what if you don’t want to be your own boss? Maybe you know that you are better at working for someone else. 
That is why I am thrilled to bring you this next topic on Friday. It’s one that I’ve been putting together for awhile. We’ve partnered with fellow Her Insight Networker Sharon Davis, host of “Your Way to Work at Home”. She is also the owner of the incredibly resourceful site  2Work-At-Home.com which features companies that actually hire telecommuters.
Like so many of us, Sharon is a mom who has been through the frustrations and challenges of trying to find a telecommute job, and she's been working at home successfully since 1999. Sharon will be joining us to share her experience and tell us exactly what we need to do to make out dreams of working at home a reality.  
If you are looking for real answers about earning a legitimate income from home, this is a show you won’t want to miss!]]></itunes:summary>

<title><![CDATA[Life Balance in the Life of a Parent Entrepreneur 05-21-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[If you need a good pick me up- this is a great show to listen to. Lots of laughs among girlfriends, talking about how we got through the toughest times, and then celebrating how far we've come! It's a show full of growth and productive discoveries!
Yes, I may be overly enthusiastic, but I still believe that anyone can learn to become a work-at-home parent. Now more than ever, I am determined to help you see your full potential to obtain the way of life you and your family deserve. You've already heard me talk about sacrifice, staying sane, budgeting and teamwork. Yet, it still feels like we are just barely scratching the surface.
Lets turn this up a notch.

You each have something valuable to offer your community, whether you realize it or not. You already have what it takes to create positive and meaningful change. You are your own instrument, so its important to keep you fine tuned.
This week we will be giving you more of the tools you need to become your best self, learn what sets you apart individually, and what you can contribute in cooperation to this new culture. 
I am pleased and honored to invite a true inspiration to join us on the air. Passionate about the OMM mission right from the beginning, I once gave her a staff position because I was determined to have her on my team! Laurel Crossley-Byers, founder of Opti-mom, has become one of the most sought after speakers on the topic of Life Balance for the Entrepreneur and Business Professional. As my very good friend, I can tell you that Laurel is engaging, informative and completely hilarious. Mona and I will be welcoming Laurel to discuss her philosophy for the simplicity of living, and how a balanced mind, body and spirit produce a balanced life - something so many of us are seeking.

Two goals this week: Finding the simplicity in your life AND Fine tuning your instrument.

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[I am on a mission to bring home 1 million parents. But I can't do it alone. I am here to inspire, to educate, and support you...but you must make a commitment to yourself. What are you willing to do to come home? What sacrifices are you willing to make? What is being home with your kids worth to you?
 
We will continue these discussions this week as I introduce you to a valuable new element of This Little Parent Stayed Home:
I am pleased to acquaint you with My new co-host and "side kick" Mona Colwell.
Up until now, you may know her is the Direct Sales Expert on TLPSH, as well as on the Our Milk Money Blog, but she has also served as OMM's PR and Media Director. 
 
It's important that we surround ourselves with supportive associates and close companions, especially when we give ourselves enormous missions like "bringing home 1 million parents." Lofty goals like this could never be possible without the proper reinforcements in place, such as my dedicated staff, of which Mona has been a part of.   I have no doubt that Mona will be an excellent contribution to the show because as my counterpoint, she has an exceptional knack for provoking me to give my best exposition.  When it comes to having someone in your corner, Mona is as devoted and steadfast as they come.
What makes her such an asset as my co-host on TLPSH is that even in the midst of her unwavering loyalty, she has no problem giving an alternate point of view, and balancing out my frenzic nature. Mona is just as passionate about our mission, but less outrageous. She's been my voice of reason, my rock, and my friend. Everyone should have a Mona in their lives- so I am please to announce that each Friday I will be sharing my Mona with you.
 
Speaking of friends, I am also proud to be bringing my very good friend and colleague, Shara Lawrence-Weiss  as this week's guest.  Shara is an incredibly resourceful and visionary leader among the work-at-home parent community. With a passion for children, reading and education, Shara is the current owner of Mommy Perks, the founder of Personal Child Stories, Early Childhood News & Resources and Kids Perks. Shara will be joining us to discuss the importance of Play Time/Outdoor Time for Kids, and providing much needed advice for those of us looking to find a healthy and productive balance while working at home. 

I hope you are having a great week! We are looking forward to sharing another hour with you!]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[I mean it. No more messing around. I am telling it like it is. If I am going to bring home 1 million parents, I need to count on YOU to put on your boldest and bravest outfit. Are. You. With. Me?
 
It's what you've been asking for. You just want someone to give it to you straight. You got it.
 
You are sick of spending hours of research looking for the perfect work-at-home job that is going to replace your corporate salary. You are only finding rosy colored fabrications- none of which you are stupid enough to fall for. You can trust me. I'll be the first to tell you that those jobs don't exist.
 
You just wish someone would tell you the truth about what to expect. No problem. 
 
You don't feel like any of this applies to you. Your situation is different than the ones talked about on the show. Okay, then. Bring. It. On.
 
You think I am kidding? 
If you want to come home, there will be no more excuses. No more waiting for the perfect scenario. It doesn't exist. You can only prepare so much before you allow yourself to move forward. Let your fear drive you into a better reality,  for your sake and your family's sake. Let the love you have for your beautiful children guide your convictions.
Without anguish there would be no passion. Without vulnerability there would be no courage. Without your family, you would never desire the need to discover a new part of yourself... the part that is willing to risk everything you have ever known for a better way. Don't waste one more second waiting to make the most of your quick little life with the darling little people who make that life so worth living. 
Flex those muscles and give yourself the leverage you need to take back the control. Reclaim the power that will allow you to decide the best way to provide for your family and how often you are able to see them.

I am on a mission to bring home 1 million parents. 
See you soon.

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Show #11: Super Spousal Support: Becoming the Ultimate Mom/Dad Team when Bringing One of You Home.

Things are changing rapidly all around us, and that might be a bit confusing for some, but  do not mistake it as a bad thing. Vulnerability and uncertainty are only opportunities to confront our fears head on.
You are not in this alone.
Whether you know it or not, you are surrounded by others who are like-minded, just as passionate, and just as willing to step into new, never before seen territory for the chance at spending as much of this lifetime as possible with their families.
Besides, you aren't alone. You have your family- the very thing that you are fighting for!
 
There is some good stuff here.
This new generation of parents encompasses the greatest amount of equality in history thus far, and I don't see anyone laying down and declaring a victory just yet. There is still more unity to achieve! More sacrifices to be made!  More understandings to be shared! More awareness to be mastered!
There are men that still feel the financial burden of providing for their families on their single income, as their fathers did before them. Unfortunately this is not possible for the majority, so its been an incredibly difficult adjustment for them. There are women who once fought to take control of their financial destiny by proving to the corporate world that they are just as significant and impactful, but very few expected the maternal instinct to kick in with such industrial fervor, transforming every priority they'd ever known in their lives the moment they held their new baby in their arms.
Everything has changed.
All of a sudden, these men have become dads, and the women have become moms.
As caretakers, we have a little more understanding of one another, and have become a little less divided. In this new world, we have all had to redefine our gender roles as they relate to the family, and recreate a new set of rules geared towards our financial survival. This revolutionary time can be just as liberating for the men as it is for the women. Make no mistake, the most successful work-at-home moms are the ones that have the most supportive husbands rooting them on, fighting to be a part of your mission and adjusting to each new set of rules that gets thrown their way. 
I know this because I happen to have one of my own.
I wouldn't have known where to begin any part of this journey without my husband, the most loyal friend I have ever known.
Adjusting to this new way of life hasn't exactly been a walk in the park for him, and he'll tell you exactly that, I am sure. But each step of the way has allowed us to grow stronger as parents, as providers, and as partners. 
 
Joining us this Friday is none other than my amazing husband, life-partner, and soul mate. He is the one and only, Chris Loprete. This podcast has never been just for women, but ladies if there was ever a time to invite your husbands to listen in with you, it would be now. As the ultimate guy's guy and husband interpreter, he won't let you down - nor will he let us end the show without at least a giggle or two. ]]></itunes:summary>

<title><![CDATA[Money, I am totally over you. Gonna go earn me some happiness. 04-23-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Let's talk about money! (Wait, where are you going?)
 
I am not going to deny that this subject may seem a little daunting but it doesn't have to be, and we can't avoid it forever. Now that so much of our hard earned money seems to have to vanished into thin air, families across the country are being forced to make new decisions regarding mere survival.  
 
We CANNOT let this fear control us and prevent us from moving forward. We are in this together.  We must choose to fight past this uncertain time and use our power in numbers to work towards a new solution. Are you with me?
 
It's time we had this discussion.
A career in Corporate America no longer represents financial stability the way that becoming one's own boss does. We must stop expecting for things to go back to the way they were and embrace this as a necessary change in our society.
This is the time I like to call "the storm before the rainbow." Storms aren't all bad if you know how to wait it out. Getting there is half the fun. When the rain finally stops, the air will be clear, the earth clean, and the sky filled with color.
Count on it. 
It's time we set ourselves free from the fear that is causing our limitations. We must open up our hearts and our minds to see all the potential of a clean slate.
Let's get creative!
As parents, we are more resourceful than ever, and with enough commitment, we are capable of making gold out of garbage.   This show is dedicated to help you re-examine your financial situation, realize the value you still have in yourself, your assets, and your future. Together we will release the power that money has on us, and capitalize on our ability to live a quality life on a shoestring budget. Let's put things in perspective and simplify our over extended lifestyles. Often we can provide for our families in even MORE substantial ways simply by getting creative. If you truly want to become a stay-at-home parent,  this show is crucial for your survival: mentally and literally.
 
This week, I am proud to welcome two incredible guests to aid us in this discussion.  Beth Engelman and Jenna Riggs are co-hosts of the radio show Mommy on a Shoestring also part of the Her Insight Network. These two ladies are incredibly inspiring and successful work-at-home moms who have made careers out of "living rich" by staying creative and thrifty.
 
Also, you asked for it!! Due to popular demand, Katie Dean of Oh! Katie Cookies will be returning to the show. We've received so many wonderful letters from listeners telling us how much they enjoy following her journey as a new entrepreneur. Thank you for cheering her on!
 
It's going to be a great hour!! See you then :)]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Whether you are looking to become a work-at-home parent, or you already are one, you’ll be amazed to learn that the rules from your old job may not apply to this community.

The Parent Entrepreneur community has tripled in the last 2 years, and it continues to grow month after month. This is no longer a trend. It has become a way of doing business for so many parents. Top executives, take note! Parent Professionals have had to re-think the way they conduct business, the way the network,  the way they pace themselves, and who they build relationships with. Finding a solid community of support is a necessity to the success of any home based business. Parents have joined together in a collaborative effort to create a community with a whole new set of rules.
You’ve heard me talk about some of them:
Don’t ever apologize for your kids when on a business call.
Don’t work until the kids are in school or in bed.
Kids come first and work comes second.
Choose to work with other parents who “get it”.
You are the boss, so work at a pace that makes sense for you and your family.

This is most likely the most challenging time of your life. You never stop learning how to be parent, and now you are learning to run a small home based business. The parent business community is here to support you, and we want you to thrive!
I expect this to be our most inspirational show yet.  This topic truly excites me because the progress that we have made as parent entrepreneurs in the last 3 years is truly revolutionary. To help welcome you into the parent business community, I have invited *Laura Wintemute of BizEworks to join us. We will be discussing the importance of supporting your local community, successful networking and the benefits of “paying it forward.”
We are looking forward to having you join us!]]></itunes:summary>

<title><![CDATA[Productive Politics: A respectful Discussion About How the Newly Passed Legislation Affects Self-Employed Parents 04-02-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Do we dare talk politics even at an attempt to stay neutral? Is it even possible right now?
There are heated disputes and vicious bickerings all around us. Arrows are being flung back and forth between friends and family members on Facebook, Twitter has become a mass of short and sweet cheap shots, and it is all at the ironic expense of our nation’s health (pun intended). Most American’s have not even read the health care reform bill, and yet they have no problem delivering their arrogant and uninformed “expertise”.
(I admit, I am one of them.)
Given the acrimonious state of the people on BOTH sides, you may think its not possible to discuss government or policy in a neutral way…but I’d like to try. It’s important that we learn what the bill is about before scratching each other’s eyes out…and maybe, just maybe…we’ll lose the desire to grapple once we realize…we are not nearly as divided as we thought.
*Julianne Wish may not be of the same political affiliation as myself, but we are friends and colleagues who have at least one shared goal: Becoming more united as parents and entrepreneurs, becoming less divided in the political arena, and striving to gain as much real information as we can to obtain a true understanding of our current situation and what it might mean for our future.  (Er, make that 3 shared goals). We are both passionate advocates for parents and their children.  So, if our goals are truly the same, its just a matter of finding the best way to get there. It is my hope that we’ll have such a productive discussion that we’ll be showing D.C. how it should be done.
I have invited Julianne, who is one of the few people I know to have actually read the bill, to speak with us about the newly passed legislation, and help us to see how it will affect us personally, our families and our small businesses. There will be no battling or battering, and we will keep our personal opinions out. Instead, we will be working together to represent the facts without the slant, and explore the components without the criticisms.
We know there is conflict. Our intention is not to add to it. Nor is it to convince you to choose one side over the other.
The intent is to give you the tools you need to understand the health reform bill and how it affects YOU. Perhaps we’ll get really lucky and it will advance us one step further toward our own goal of becoming less divided. ]]></itunes:summary>

<title><![CDATA[Everything you want to know about Direct Sales and MLM (but Were Afraid to Ask) 03-26-2010]]></title>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[As you know, I am on a mission to change the way we all shop, and to educate the public on the value of purchasing from a family owned and operated business. I believe that the broken economy is actually an opportunity for us to rebuild it in a way that works for us rather than against us, and as a result of so many lost jobs over the past 2 years, self-employment has risen more than 20%. So as part of my mission, I support these parent-run businesses by making as many purchases from them as I possibly can...and changing my purchasing behaviors.... so that I am not spending anymore money that I was in the past...And yes, I do purchase some of these products from parents who run a direct sales business out of their home, and I have no problem listing them on the OurMilkMoney.com business directory. Why would I have a problem with it? If its a good product, and similar in price to a product I've purchased from a megastore, I'll switch over. And in most cases I’ve been pretty satisfied with the level of customer service, the price and with the product itself. So,  I don't care if it came from an MLM or a private source... if my money goes directly to the parent... then it is within my mission. However, I do have to draw the line somewhere, and in a lot of cases, I have not been happy with the products, some were over priced, for some it was set up in a way where you have to buy a certain amount each month and your credit card will automatically be charged and new product sent to you whether you are ready for it or not, membership fees...all issues that are debatable, and I know there are 2 sides to everything...but the biggest issue I have about businesses such as these is that it often has very little to do with the product itself. For some people, it’s obvious that the real goal is not to introduce you to the products, or to build a real client/consumer relationship… for some, it’s all about selling the opportunity… and you can smell it a mile away. It’s offensive, especially when someone asks me to buy into their opportunity and there is obviously no regard for the fact that I am already a business owner with a mission of my own. In these cases in becomes clear to me that they are not making very much money on selling me the products and the real incentive is for them to get as many people as they can to sell the products FOR them so that they can earn a residual income.
the stigma is this...everyone wants to get money for free. I sure would. But it’s not really ethical. It feels like stealing. I am not saying that it is...but when something is described to me as this” I barely have to do anything!  The money just comes pouring in…” that is when my red flag goes up.  
Now the reason I wanted to talk about this today is because I sincerely want to help the situation. I see so many good  honest people, and strong passionate parents buy into these opportunities and fail...and I’d like to see less of that happen. I want to see parents who have chosen to stay home succeed. 
But in many cases it seems like the businesses that they buy into are full of empty promises, or they weren’t upfront about the type of work that it would involve, or the incentives are set up to recruit people rather than sell products and services to people. It’s as if many of these businesses are preventing its own success by the way it is being approached.

My goal is to support all parent and their home based businesses, so I want to address this subject as a way of helping those that have chosen an MLM as their profession to find success, and not hurt their chances for success by compromising their own business integrity. ]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[You have just started your own business, and there is 3 times the amount of work that you expected, you have 2 kids under the age of 3, a mortgage that isn’t getting any smaller, a household to run… and only 12 hours in a day….
How are you supposed to handle all of this without going insane?
 Please don’t call me “Supermom”

I don’t have any super powers, and I certainly have a breaking point just like the rest of the world.

There is a misconception among work-at-home parents that we have to do it all, and have it done YESTERDAY. The more moms and dads I speak to, the more I realize we are all very similar. Parents today are simply amazing- but then again we HAVE to be. Of the parents that I know that are working full time- or even part time- and raising a family and a household, none of them are doing it just because it’s fun for them, or because they were looking to do MORE in their lives. Most of us are doing it because it’s what is necessary for our families to survive in today’s world. Our families need us to try and bring in a supplemental income because one income is not enough. Not even those with college degrees and higher educations are able to provide for their families on one income. It’s not their fault, and we certainly don’t blame them. It’s just the way it is.
Before you choose to let someone who seems to be able to do it all overawe you and minimize what you know you are capable of doing, LOOK CLOSER. If there are days that you feel you are barely staying afloat, take a moment and look at the others in your very same pool treading water. Perhaps they are looking at YOU and wondering how you got YOUR superpowers. Pat yourself on the back, because you have accomplished something today.
This week, with guest *Lori Lite, owner of Stress Free Kids we will be discussing how easy it is to let yourself get overwhelmed, and how to manage your time between running a new business, caring for your children and running a household. It’s hard work, but for many parents, the hardest part is scheduling time to take care of your own health. This is such an important topic, and my hope is that you’ll come away from this show feeling less stress and more confidence in your abilities as a parents and as business owners. ]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Celebrating Hollywood Baskets 1st Annual Academy Awards Swag Gift Bag.  Given to nominees and presenters staying at The Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles…and to one lucky winner on This Little Parent Stayed Home National Podcast! 

Well it’s about time we were treated like ROYALTY!!
For many of us, the mega superstars that walk the red carpet on Oscar Sunday is the only royalty we will ever really know. Where my family lives, in SoCal, Oscar Sunday is practically a holiday. This time of year everyone around us has been scrambling for months to watch the nominated films in time to be able to have their true opinions for the big day. In our younger days, we always had at least 2 or 3 Oscar parties to choose from, and although some of them were black tie optional, the only clear option was the party with the least amount of “talkers”. Because as only the serious Hollywooders know, you don’t make a peep during a Royal Superstar’s speech. It’s just… not…cool.

So when Lisa Gal, a new member of OurMilkMoney.com, superstar mom and owner of Hollywood Baskets, a custom gift basket delivery service, contacted me and told me she was in charge of handing out the Swag Party Favors for the red carpet walkers and presenters themselves… well, I knew that we needed to celebrate. Lisa will be a guest on the show next week, and in honor of Oscar week, she has VERY generously offered to give away one of her Swag Party Favors to a lucky listener of This Little Parent Stayed Home.

For those not familiar with the term SWAG- it stands for “Stuff We All Get”. Love that watch you saw on Clooney?  Want to get the same necklace as Charlise?  Wonder what was in all those swag bags on the arms of your favorite stars? Small and unknown companies have gotten mega-exposure in years past at the Academy Awards by using a cutting-edge marketing strategy of gifting and pampering celebrities and VIP’s. The baskets themselves, complete with the goodies inside can be worth anywhere from $2000- $50,000. This one is valued at OVER $7,000!!

I don’t know anyone more deserving of that kind of indulgence than the everyday parents of today’s society. The question is…who will the lucky winner be?  

Topics today also cover using your own resources to start your own business, the power we all have as consumers, parents working in corporate America who feel enslaved by their jobs, making that leap of faith into becoming a stay-at-home parent and so much more!

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Small businesses run by parents have exploded in the last 2 years, and there are a ton of books and websites popping up all over the place on the subject. But the thing that sets This Little Parent Stayed Home apart from the rest is that it speaks to ALL parents, and both genders. I don’t mean to criticize the motivational movements that are empowering women, but very often it seems as though it is done in a way that puts blame on the men. In fact, every where I look there are groups that aim to empower and inspire, but they end up counter actively segregating themselves with mass amounts of finger pointing and blaming some other group. There is division everywhere we look. It begs for us to examine more closely if we are really as divided as we think we are.

This show will begin the discussion of all the things we try to avoid at parties. Politics, Religion, Marriage, Gender issues, and big business vs. small business. This show will not attempt to persuade you into joining into any group over another, but will encourage you to adopt the viewpoints that make sense for our productivity and our common goals as parents. We’ll begin with encouraging you to make a conscious decision that will open and expand your minds and your hearts, by letting go of assumptions, and societal misconceptions of what the ideal family situation should be.

We’ll be celebrating the fathers who are staying at home while the mothers go earn the larger salary, and exploring all the ways that families can work together to bring one parent home. Stay at home father, *Chris Mancini will be joining us as a guest to talk about how his family achieves this result, and how he is still able to use his skills to earn a supplemental income for his family.]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:author><![CDATA[Ally Loprete]]></itunes:author>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[I am constantly amazed at the parents that I meet on the OurMilkMoney.com business directory. When I think of all the things the Parents of the Our Milk Money Organization are  accomplishing together, and the cooperative efforts that are occurring in thousands of families across the country, I can’t help getting a little teary eyed. For so many of these warm-hearted and attentive moms and dads, taking that leap of faith into becoming self-employed was one of the scariest things they’ve ever done.
The Parents of the Our Milk Money Organization are some of the most heroic and spirited people I’ve had the pleasure of knowing, and they should be commended for their courageous efforts to provide for their families. When I had first founded the concept, I had set out to inspire parents to join together and fight for a better reality. So you can imagine my delightful revelation when I realized that it was me who was being inspired by them.
It is my genuine pleasure to introduce you to these fantastic individuals on my first broadcast, and I know you will enjoy staying connected to them week after week.

Many of these parents have donated fantastic products and services from their home based businesses. Please take a moment to register and tune in to win!

Thank you for tuning in each week. Together we will change the world.
