Let's Meet MasterMom: Amanda @lineandcleat

I couldn't be more excited to feature Amanda Horan. Amanda is owner of Line and Cleat, Midwest Shore Society, a podcast host and a mom. I met Amanda while living in the Chicago suburbs and love her passion for all things coastal. Let's meet this amazing MasterMom who is doing all things and keeping it real with her positive fun loving energy!

Tell us about yourself and family!

I'm married to Collin, we live in the Chicago suburbs with our 2 year old daughter and another little girl on the way in June.

How do you keep your mom and work life balanced?

With running our business and being a full-time mom it is crucial I have a to-do list and carve out specific chunks of time to work on what needs to get done! I try to focus on just 2-3 top priorities each day, you can’t do it all at once.

What’s your favorite go to meal?

Crock pot, pork tacos! Super easy and cooks all day so dinner is ready when we are.

What’s been the best product you’ve been using for yourself, kids, or home?

My Line + Cleat tumbler filled to the brim with coffee of course!

What’s your favorite date night?

Collin and I love to walk to a local restaurant on a nice night or out for a drink.

What’s the one thing that you must have on a daily basis?

My daily planner! I probably check it 5 times a day HA!

What’s a typical day look like for you?

Mom duty always comes first then I work on Line + Cleat and any other “to-dos” during nap time.

What advice would you give for a new mom?

Everything is a learning curve, there is no one right way to do it! Be flexible and show yourself grace- being a mom is HARD WORK!

Do you have a favorite parenting resource, book, podcast, etc?

Other moms! Building connections with other parents that are in your same shoes has not only been helpful for tips and tricks but a great support system for yourself too.

What’s your favorite time of day?

Quiet afternoons during nap time.

LOVED this Amanda and I'm so excited to celebrate you as a MasterMom!
