Ally Loprete has made it her mission to help 1 million parents bring their careers home. 

Together we are rebuilding a new economy that will support us rather than enslave us. Never again, will we have to choose between raising our children and earning to provide for them. It won’t be easy, but it will be worth it.

Moms and Dads looking to bring one parent home to stay with their children in an age when 2 incomes are vital for a family's survival are finding their inspiration through activist and motivator, Ally Loprete, your radio host of This Little Parent Stayed Home. 

Laugh along with This Little Parent... each week, as you go through this "no-brainer" tutorial that will show you how to give up your corporate salary, and get started supplementing your family revenue offering the skills you've always had. This Little Parent... covers important issues such as how to work as a family unit to make your dreams become a reality (how to get your spouse on your side), how to discover untapped resources in your very own community, how to start a business for under $200, and everyone's favorite: how to manage your time between building your business, providing for your family, and taking much needed time for yourself to recharge each day. You'll learn how to survive on a fixed budget, work around additional expenses simply by getting creative, and enjoy more time with your family as nature intended.

About The Host

Known as the Work/Life Balance Parenting expert, Ally Loprete’s career began when she  founded the widely popular OurMilkMoney.com, an online search directory that lists the products and services of thousands of self-employed parents in more than 120 cities across the country.  In addition to inspiring a movement of work-at-home moms and dads who support each other with their own purchasing power,  Ally has created an abundance of opportunity for parents who are seeking alternatives to expensive daycares and long hours away from home.

Prior to becoming a self-employed parent, Ally spent several years in various creative roles at ABC Television, and although her time there was rewarding and plentiful,  it wasn't until her first child was born that she came to realize her true calling in life. Returning to work with knots in her stomach from dropping her newborn off at a poorly run home daycare, she became determined to find a way to better her family's situation.

Ally has become a nationally recognized personality through her widely popular internet radio show, THIS LITTLE PARENT STAYED HOME, where she is diligently chipping away at her mission to help 1 million parents bring their personal careers home. It is on her weekly live show that she is able to help challenged career parents deal with the sometimes overwhelming prospect of starting a new business while still running a household, and creating a haven in which parents across the nation will continue to thrive and get the support they need in their personal journeys. 

Ally Loprete has been featured in Working Mother Magazine, the Los Angeles Daily News, ABC TV's Eye Witness News, and in a great deal of internet media including The Business Opportunities Weblog, Divine Caroline, Motherhood Incorporated, WorkItMom, Work at Home Success, Inc. Magazine and The Mommy Reporter, to name just a few. Ally writes a column entitled HOME FREE for the Santa Clarita Valley Tidbits weekly magazine and is a nationally recognized motivational speaking to many women's groups across the country with a concentration on family and career balance.

Behind every successful parent entrepreneur are

MORE parent entrepreneurs supporting, encouraging, and nurturing them.

There has never been a better time for moms and dads to claim their place in society and earn their way to freedom. You better believe that YOUR CHOICE to be self-employed is making a significant difference for your children and the future that awaits them. Today there is a greater ability to connect with one another than in any past generation. Thanks to our unlimited virtual information sources... (social media platforms and the ability to carry it all around with you in a hand-held mobile device) gone are the days of the lonely house parent who's grown-up intelligence turns to mush from lack of stimulation. We have resources! HURRAH!!! =) =)

There is a science behind all of this and when closely examined, it equals progress.

It should come as no surprise that we are all --every one of us-- motivated by the exact same thing: The love we have for our children. We may be activated through different passions, career aspirations and lifestyle visions, but the driving force is still the same.

Therefore...we MUST share the same philosophy. You MUST believe that there is a force that binds us all together. Not one of us will dispute that our families are worth the sacrifices that we make every day. 
 
YOU possess a powerful spirit. It was born on the same day your child was born... it's a determination that keeps us bound together as parents and visionaries.  It's the same spirit that helped us to create and nurture our children, it's the reason we are BETTER TOGETHER, and why we should never allow things like LONLINESS, LACK OF INFORMATION or FEAR of the unknown become the unfortunate guiding force. Deep down that EMPOWERED SPIRIT is always there... and we can USE it to our advantage--- to step out of our comfort zone, apply for a business loan, or call up an intimidating client to close the deal. DO NOT deny this spirit!!
You don't want your children to settle for mediocrity, so why accept that for yourself?

 
Let go of those limiting beliefs and you will achieve a better perspective in all you do.

If you are truly ready to be in a better reality, you must be willing to see things differently than in the past. Negative illusions might be holding you back from knowing that it is a grand thing just to be alive. More than that, it could be preventing you from broadcasting a powerful message to the world that only you were meant to deliver. If you are truly ready to become a pioneer, then you must be willing to invest more into your creative core.

 Make the world a little brighter.... more colorful... more magnificent.

You owe it to the world to put your ideas into action! It's moms and dads LIKE YOU who started out with nothing more than a vision...and they FLAT OUT REFUSED to deny the world of their greatness and insane determination to be cutting edge. It's YOUR creations that will inspire millions more.

There is tremendous value in living in the moment - in treasuring every trial and tribulation and having pride in your "war wounds".  We learn through struggle. We become stronger each time we fall down. We gain valuable insight by DOING - much more than listening to others tell us HOW TO DO IT.

Use your creative force to thrive on these endeavors.

Today I will be introducing you to Michelle Van Otten, a transformation "Breakthru coach" who will be sharing with us how to use our uniqueness as parents and entrepreneurs to create MAGNETISM and the "it factor" in yourself and in your brand... no matter what you are "selling" to the world! =) =)

Unlock the Power of Your Mind.

I LOVE PUZZLES. Crossword, Sudoku, Riddles-- even jigsaws.

I wasn't always this geeky. As a child, I don't remember enjoying USING MY BRAIN this much. Not in the least. But as an adult...I not only see the benefits of keeping my mind alert... I FEEL IT.

It's like exercise for my brain.  I love figuring things out, narrowing down possible solutions through processes of elimination, pattern recognition, mathematics and science...searching for different colors, shapes, insights, nuggets of information ...to be pieced together collectively in a way that will bring new insights into focus --- unlocking higher levels of consciousness, paving the way for different opportunities and awakening new schools of thought. 

Sometimes putting our LIVES together can feel like a multi-faceted, big puzzle filled with unexpected twists and turns... but ultimately leading us to a higher purpose or a desirable end result... (WE HOPE!)

Your BRAIN is the most valuable resource that you have-- and NO

ONE can take it away from you.

The Left-brain thinks logically and follows sequence while the right brain is creative, intuitive and emotional. When you are able to use both sides of the brain, you will find that your mind power is harnessed to its best potential and improves in critical thinking skills and problem solving ability. NOW we are being told that our brain has the ability to heal diseases, improve our quality of life, help us to fall in love, and bring us unlimited funds.

The concept of abundance appeals to everyone for obvious reasons. We have been told that advances in the field of quantum physics over the last fifty years are beginning to provide scientific validation for principles like "law of attraction" and other creative concepts. It is no longer possible to blow off the reality of vibrational influences on our physical reality.

It is believed that by implementing certain principles into your business, you will be able to spend less time on marketing efforts and MORE TIME on weighing your choices. Those who are applying these "beliefs" report feeling less stressed, more clear on their intentions, and their goals seem to materialize with less effort.

Achieving Great Success Starts With a Bit of

Reprogramming.

It's not that I didn't believe in The Law of Attraction -- it's that as much as I WANTED to wrap my brain around this trendy topic  (brought into pop culture through the movie, "The Secret") I couldn't help my skepticism. I had questions -- lots of them-- and without answers... it felt... like... an unsolved puzzle. 

And because I LOVE puzzles, I went on a hunt to unveil the big mystery.

Last week we talked about "MAGIC" and how sometimes it is important to just --- SUSPEND DISBELIEF--- How to have faith in things we cannot see, but FEEL in our core. We talked about WHY believing in the unimaginable will lead us into creating new miracles.

THIS WEEK, we are going to talk about HOW to put it into action. There is a learning process behind adjusting our stubborn and limiting beliefs into a mindset that produces INTENDED RESULTS.

Whether you incorporate energy work, energy psychology, positive thinking, spirituality or simply a sense of conducting conscious business, you are essentially taking resources within yourself and applying them to your work. This process not only benefits you and your business but the world around you.

Today's guest, Allison Sutter will be joining us to discuss holistic health, personal development and how to create lifelong abundance and prosperity. Her philosophies are based on the teachings of Bob Proctor, Celebrity Speaker known for his appearance on The Secret, Author of the best seller YOU WERE BORN RICH, and one of the most transformational leaders of our generation.

We could all use a little MAGIC in our lives.

I have not even left New York  - where I was HONORED to be on the stage at Mom Gets A Business Conference-- (I am writing this as I wait to board the airplane at JFK) -- and I simply cannot contain my enthusiasm for what I just experienced! 

When I first began this journey as a self-employed stay-at-home Mom, I was not only looking for a way to provide for my children that did not take me away from them every day, but also a way to nurture my desire to make an important mark on the world.  I had QUITE an uphill battle ahead of me. I was determined to create wealth ON MY TERMS, prove to the naysayers that IT COULD BE DONE...and I didn't care that I didn't HAVE A CLUE where to start.

But I had more than "a clue". I had a VISION that fueled so much passion in me... nothing would allow me to back down. Ignorance was most likely bliss... because if I REALLY KNEW what was ahead of me, I might not have ventured forward. I HAD TO BELIEVE IN MIRACLES-- and I learned to close my eyes and ears to the negative chatter. Now, when I am asked about HOW I got to where I am... I can't help but think of the remarkable women that I have chosen to surround myself with in my journey. These women taught me that MAGIC was possible.

The Magic is already within YOU.

Okay, if you think this sounds fluffy-- you are not far off. BUT... don't write off this message JUST YET. When I say "magic," I am talking about ALL that has been accomplished by those who had visions, followed their instincts, and broke new ground DESPITE being told it couldn't be done.

I am talking about those who trusted their heart even when their head told them it wasn't logical, those whose ideas were rejected - whose confidence and self worth was marred - and those who found a way to create MEASURABLE SUCCESS against the odds. We must NEVER stop learning from those who have created magic before us. Every day new paths are paved FOR US ... so that we may be able to create our own.

MAGIC defies the laws of science.

We are all up against SOMETHING...that is what makes life INTERESTING. Trickery or not, the BELIEF in MAGIC is what fuels our spirit and feeds our energy to keep going.

Join me on today's show when I introduce you to a Mom who needed to heal and created magic and miracles. Through her experience... she discovered her "super power" in healing others. Janet D. Thomas is the author of Lemons, Lemonade & Life - Practical Steps for Getting the Sweetness Back When Life Goes Sour. It's always a favorite topic of mine. Instead of seeing the struggles in our lives as a hinderance --- we can just wave our magic wands and turn those struggles into STRENGTH.

Are you willing to do ANYTHING to build wealth and stability? Prove it.

Back in college, I remember my professor of Acting 101 asked the small crowd of freshmen what they were willing to do to become "famous." The question wasn't meant to be rhetorical, but rather-- provocative. HOW BADLY DO YOU WANT IT? Because in the most competitive industry in the world...chances are... your competition wants it MORE.

We were told that if you are not willing to do just ANYTHING, crazy or not... QUIT NOW and find another college major, another dream, a more "simple" paycheck, and an easier way of life. The good life wasn't meant for YOU.

It was reserved for the people who were willing to do what most were UNWILLING to do. 

That was the lesson --- and it stayed with me.

Kara Anderson was willing to CLEAN TOILETS to

provide for her family.

She sent an email to family and friends and offered to clean bathrooms for free... the only catch was if they loved her, they had to HIRE HER and then brag to their friends ABOUT her. From that thrifty beginning, she now cleans over 100 homes a week, employing 14 other moms and helping them provide for their families.

A wife, mom, business owner and a breast cancer survivor, Kara is not a woman who lets hardship determine her fate.  After losing her job in 2008 she found a way to take her passion for being a neat freak and CLEANED HER WAY to profit. Now providing ABUNDANTLY for her family with a six figure income, her business MAIDS ON THE RUN has become a nationwide franchise.

What are YOU willing to do?

This is a hypothetical question that... IF you are willing to ENGAGE IN... will, without a doubt, yield answers. Yes, you may EVEN have to work for free in the beginning, just so that others will take a chance on you and allow you to prove yourself. In lieu of payment, ASK FOR THE REFERRALS. It's a brilliant way to launch your service-providing career on the fast track-- without capital or even experience!

Inspirational stores are all around you!! If you are looking for more... all you have to do is read the PERSONAL JOURNEYS of the parents who have listed their small businesses on OurMilkMoney.com. I AM INSPIRED EVERYDAY by these SPOTLIGHT STORIES of success-- especially the ones told by the moms and dads who overcame adversity in their lives--like Kara.

Join us live on the radio today to hear my interview with Kara Anderson of Maids on the Run!
