Are You Really There for Your Children?

August 03, 20256 min read

How Parents Can Reclaim Time, Freedom, and Presence in 5 Simple Steps

For parents, the question isn’t just “Am I providing for my kids?”

It’s also… “Am I actually there with them?”

Not just physically in the same room, but truly present: mentally, emotionally, and without the weight of work constantly hanging over you.

I’ve met countless parents who wake up before their children, race through the day juggling work and responsibilities, and come home just in time to kiss them goodnight. They miss football games, school plays, or even simple dinners together, not because they don’t care, but because life’s demands keep pulling them away.

Olivia’s story is one example.

She was a realtor for over a decade, juggling two young boys and homeschooling.

Life was already full, two young boys, homeschooling, and a real estate business that was struggling in a slow housing market. She started learning, but like many parents, she got pulled away by family responsibilities.

Here’s the thing: most people stop right there.

They pause for “just a little while” and never come back. Life gets busy. Fear creeps in. The dream gets pushed to the back burner until it disappears.

But Olivia couldn’t give up. She knew if nothing changed, nothing would change.
She kept reaching out, checking in with us, asking questions, staying connected even when she wasn’t moving at full speed.

And because she invested in herself and in this program, she always had a lifeline. The AMZSHIFU team was there for her every step of the way, not just with answers, but with encouragement and accountability.

Success rewards those who refuse to give up. Olivia didn’t stop; she improvised, adjusted, and kept going. Eventually, she restarted with determination, followed the roadmap, and tapped into every resource we offered, sourcing, listing creation, PPC setup, and built a $10K/month Amazon business that now runs semi-passively alongside her family life.

Her journey taught me something important: regaining your time and freedom isn’t about working harder, it’s about working smarter.

Here are 5 powerful ways you can start reclaiming your time, your freedom, and your presence with your children:


1. Know Your Hourly Worth

If you make $50/hour at work, but spend 4 hours mowing the lawn or fixing something you could hire out for $20/hour, you’re losing both money and time.

Delegating tasks allows you to focus on higher-value work or better yet, spend that time with your family.

Ask yourself: What am I doing right now that someone else could do better and faster?


2. It’s Not Just What You Know, It’s Who You Know

You could learn to do everything yourself but will it be up to the standard needed for success? And at what cost in time?
Olivia could have spent months researching suppliers and learning PPC from scratch, but instead she tapped into our proven network and got results faster.

Surround yourself with mentors and peers who have already achieved what you want. Their shortcuts become your accelerators.


3. Learn to Say “No” More

Every “yes” to something unimportant is a “no” to something that truly matters.
If you’re always saying yes to extra work, last-minute favors, or social obligations that don’t serve your priorities, you’ll have nothing left for the people and moments that matter most.


4. Draw Boundaries and Protect Your Focus

When you become a parent, no one else can steer the ship for you, not your parents, not your boss. You are the captain now.

If you don’t decide how to spend your time, life will decide for you and your children will feel the impact.

Block out time for family like it’s a non-negotiable meeting. Protect it fiercely.


5. Learn, Grow, and Apply

Reading the right books can change how you work and live:

  • Atomic Habits by James Clear – Small, consistent changes compound into big results.

  • Who Not How by Dan Sullivan – Stop asking “How can I do this?” and start asking “Who can do this for me?”

  • Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill – Mindset and vision shape reality.

Don’t just read, apply. Pick one concept and start implementing it today.

The Bigger Picture

For most parents, the challenge isn’t just making money, it’s making time. Without dedicating even 1–2 focused hours a day to building something better like an Amazon FBA online business that provide passive income for her family on autopilot, change won’t happen!!

And remember: success isn’t just about skills. It’s about relationships. Having the right mentor and network can collapse years of trial and error into months of progress.

That’s why Olivia succeeded, because she had both the determination and the right guidance. She started with us almost two years ago, got pulled away by life, but we never gave up on her. When she was ready, we helped her climb the mountain.

Amazon FBA isn’t going anywhere. If you’re still shopping on it, people are still making money from it. The question is: will you be one of them?

Because one day, your kids won’t remember how much money you made…
But they will remember if you were there.

Why AMZSHIFU UNIVERSITY Exists & Our Mission:

I started AMZSHIFU with my cofounders because I know what it feels like to try and fail, again and again.

When I first began my Amazon journey, I didn’t have a mentor. I tried to figure everything out myself, spent thousands of dollars making mistakes, and learned from the wrong “gurus.” It took me years to realize that success is like climbing a mountain:

If you’ve never been to the top, how do you know which path to take?

The climb is steep, and the wrong turn can cost you months or everything. Everything changed when I invested in the right mentor who had already made it to the summit and could guide me step-by-step. That’s when my life and business transformed.

Our mission at AMZSHIFU UNIVERSITY is simple:

To give everyday people a clear roadmap, the right network, and personalized mentorship so they can build real, sustainable businesses without wasting years in trial and error.

We believe in our students. We show up for them. But they must also show up for themselves because no one can steer the ship for you.
