22. Running an Airbnb Rental Business While Mindfully Mothering with Cozy Escapes Owner Rachael Laurin
Meet Airbnb Host + Mindful Mama, Rachael Laurin!
Rachael is a devoted mother of four and the creative mind behind the Cozy Escapes short-term rental brand. She values deep connections and embraces slow living, a sentiment I resonate with deeply. Rachael identifies herself as a multi-passionate entrepreneur who transitioned from the corporate world to prioritize her family while pursuing her passions. Through Cozy Escapes, Rachael and her family curate memorable experiences for guests, offering remote getaways that encourage disconnecting from distractions and savoring life's simple pleasures with loved ones.
In our conversation, Rachael and I explore the identity shift that often accompanies leaving a corporate or 'safe' career for something new and different. We discuss the diverse roles and responsibilities of being a multi-passionate entrepreneur, how Rachael effectively manages her time and priorities, the hands-on nature of running an Airbnb business, the importance of crafting personalized experiences for guests, and more.
Both Rachael and I share a commitment to leaving meaningful legacies for our children. As Rachael nurtures her short-term rental business, she does so deliberately, ensuring it complements and enhances her experience of motherhood. If you're navigating the intersection of motherhood and business and yearn for intentionality in cherishing moments with your loved ones, you won't want to miss Rachael's invaluable insights in this episode!
