    YES, YOU CAN grow a business AND stay organized with family, homeschool and RV life!


    Brooke Happe is a mom of three who is modeling how to CRUSH IT with all of the above 💪


    She left her career as a Doctor of Physical therapy to be a stay at home mama. Brooke then taught herself to crochet, and created a slouchy beanie to both hide her dirty mom hair and feel more put together during a transition to a new season of life. Other mamas asked where to buy the hat, and the brand b.e.happe started!


    After a health scare with her kiddo, Brooke and her family decided to sell everything to travel the U.S. and focus on time together. She ran her product business from their RV for many years, and now (spoiler alert!) has a home base in Texas where she continues to grow her business, homeschool and travel part-time in their RV.


    In this episode you’ll learn:

    ➕ How to run a product-based business from a tiny space

    ➕ Minimalism and intentional living can bring a sense of fulfillment

    ➕ Why setting boundaries and saying no to things that don't align are crucial for success

    ➕ The systems Brooke has in place to help her stay productive

    ➕ Why reflecting on goals and progress is essential for personal and professional growth

    And much more!
