As far as growing my business, I utilise a waitlist because I want to make sure that my business serves my family and not the other way around. I never want to say no to my children in order to serve my business. So I make sure that I have enough time to do everything I want to do for my family. And then my business fills in the gaps. – Sarah Perez Seriously, that's not all.
