Q and A with Heather from Niagara Falls, NY

“I know it might seem like there’s a huge mountain in front of you when it comes to what you want to get out of life, but it’s important to remember that you’re not just going to wake up one morning and be on top of it.”

Q: Tell us about yourself.

A: I am passionate about my family and making sure my children are able to experience all they can in life. We love to travel, so being able to work from wherever I have a Wi-Fi connection has been amazing. I have worked all over—in the air, in the middle of the ocean, and all the way down in the Maldives. I also love that I have unlimited earning potential through affiliate marketing via our savings group (facebook.com/groups/cmrdeals) and brand promotion, so I am able to hit the goals I set out to achieve.

Currently, I am working on building my blog while continuing to build an engaging social media following. A goal of mine is to hit 1 million followers this year. I would also LOVE to start a podcast, but it’s not at the forefront at the moment.

Q: What were your younger years like?

A: My family was chaos. I am the oldest of four children. My father was a blue-collar worker and my mom worked intermittently as a cashier or a CNA. We never traveled; we couldn’t afford to do much, so I think that not growing up with certain things has really pushed me to want to take over the world, so to speak. I want my children to experience everything I wasn’t able to.

As far as education, I have my B.S. in Financial Forensics and was accepted to Law School back in 2016. My ex-husband and I chose to continue to travel the country in our RV following his career, so I never finished my education. Maybe one day I will, but for now, I am enjoying the freedom and flexibility I have with the brand I have built.

Q: What is something valuable you’d like others to know?

A: You are capable of great things. You are invincible. You are worthy. You are AMAZING. There were dark times during my teenage and even adult years when I wanted to give up everything. In fact, I wrote a blog post about begging my (now ex-) husband to help me end my life. (https://coffeemomrepeat.net/2019/08/dear-husband-thank-you-for-saving-my-life/) I would not be here without him and the community I have built with my brand, “Coffee. Mom. Repeat.”

I know it might seem like there’s a huge mountain in front of you when it comes to what you want to get out of life, but it’s important to remember that you’re not just going to wake up one morning and be on top of it. My former therapist taught me the importance of baby steps and that’s what I have done with everything: Set your goal, then list ALL of the baby steps you need to get there. Then list all the steps inside those baby steps. Celebrate each one along the way.

Q: What does feminism mean to you?
A: To me, feminism means that I am not unworthy simply because I was born a female. I strongly feel as though I can do anything, barring my own physical limitations, that a man can.

MORE ABOUT HEATHER:
I created Coffee. Mom. Repeat., Inc. out of sheer boredom after my daughter was born. It began as Mom’s Time Out and a strictly silly meme page, but once my Facebook started to gain momentum in 2017, it was changed to Coffee. Mom. Repeat. and later registered with the USPTO. In the last five years, it has grown beyond my wildest dreams to include brand promotion, affiliate marketing, and the blog. I am forever grateful for starting something on a whim.
