I’m majorly honored to be included here Stephanie, thank you so much. I’ve always believed that any storyteller has the obligation to their readers to tell it best they can, and it doesn’t matter if it’s about your firstborn or your trip to France or your company’s sparkplugs.

Writing about children doesn’t give you any sort of built-in storytelling advantage; if it did, all mom bloggers would be rich and David Sedaris would be asking us for advice.

Vulnerability! You’re totally right, that’s what’s missing from so many business blogs. Great addition to this piece, thank you.

Remind yourself of two things: You can either write content that is dry, safe, and has no personality, or you can write something daring and transparent — something that will shake the floor beneath your reader’s feet.By practicing vulnerability and storytelling it can transform into a habit. A habit that will yield love and appreciation from your tribe, stories of your idea or product being put into practice, and a strong foundation that will reinforce your business and life.

My pleasure. Your writing about Ivy (the same age as my Aaron) and all of your kids, and how you document their lives, was the primary motivation for this post. I wish I were doing the same for Aaron! but it’s really just not in me.

There is a blogger I have just started following as she shares her journey from a tough pregnancy to an even tougher postpartum period where she just had her surgery. It takes guts to share personal details like that, but I admired her when she said she wanted to do it so it would help other Moms. http://www.charlenechronicles.com

This is a great point. In a corporate blog, the blogger is trying to “sell” the company. Corporate bloggers must paint the company in a positive light. On the other hands, parenting blogging is much more real and sincere. These parenting bloggers truly love what they do. They are not being paid to be a parent.

This post has made me rethink my blogging approach. Thank you for the advice. I will make sure to check out parenting blogs!
