[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I quit my corporate career and started my own consulting business to be closer to home and our three young children. It made our lives so much easier and the good news was that my business did really well. Ending the juggling of our work and business travel schedule eliminated a lot of tension. Our marriage was strong but my career move meant our home life was more relaxed but still chaotic. [/quote] I'm considering making this move. How many hours a week did you end up working on the consulting time? Were you the primary earner? Primary parent?[/quote] We had a nanny pre and post the change and I probably put in 30 hours a week initially in a home office and then I rented office space. I was not the primary earner but my income was not insignificant! I was the primary parent though my husband was a very engaged Dad. I was lucky in that my husband was incredibly supportive of whatever I wanted to do but deep down I know he was happy with the career move I made. It worked out for all of us. [/quote]
