402 - Future Planning for Entrepreneurs with Special Needs Families (with Pro members Marc, Lisa & Ed)

Web Design Business with Josh Hall

Being an entrepreneur is challenging. Being a parent-entrepreneur is even more challenging. Being a special needs parent entrepreneur…it’s tough to put into words. But one thing’s for sure, the freedom of schedule and flexible availability, to be able to care for a special needs kiddo as a web designer is UNMATCHED and well worth all the challenges.
We’re diving into all of that and more in this special group chat that I had with Marc Hyde, Lisa Dorian and Ed Gomes. All members of Web Designer Pro who have something in common, being a web designer and entrepreneur with one or more special needs children we care for.
We get into:

• Future planning for special care after retirement
• How goals and vision changes after having a child with special needs
• How to structure your schedule and calls around a complex schedule
• How we stay balanced during hard times (emergencies, surgeries, etc)
• The invaluable need for a supportive community of others who are in similar situations

And don’t worry, you don’t need to have a special needs kiddo to get a lot out of this convo because everything we talk about is applicable to you as an entrepreneur parent.
