MBA SAHM’s Best Posts of 2014

2014 was a major year for me and my family.  I transitioned to being a stay-at-home parent, managed to keep my little one healthy and happy, re-adjusted to a traveling spouse – and of course, launched this blog.

I wouldn’t trade being home with my son for anything, but I also can not deny that I would probably go absolutely crazy if I did not have this blog to keep me mentally challenged and fulfilled.  I still love business and the working world, so this has been my way to stay engaged and feeling adult-ish.

So here goes! A letter to my 20-Something Self:

Why We Need a 4-Day Workweek

A 4-day workweek. Forever. Sound good?

And the economy.

And our relationships.

And even the environment.

Ok, I’ll stop. But you get the point – it would be good for us!

But seriously, here are the actual, supported, peer-reviewed, expert-recommended reasons for switching to a 4-day workweek. (more…)
