About a year ago I made the transition from being a full-time working mother to a full-time stay at home mother. To be honest, the transition was hard for me. But I had a business that had just started and was enjoying working from home while my son took naps or in the evenings.

Five things that I have found helpful when working from home are:

1. iMac

2. iPhone

3. Diet Coke

4. Organized Space

5. Strong Social network
I don’t just mean Twitter and Facebook or even LinkedIn and Skype ( though I am totally obsessed). But I have found that personal connection, true one on one networking is key when you work from home.

A few if my favorites include:
– Start Up Princess Start Up Princess
– Ladies Who Launch: If you have a new product or concept, incubate your idea first! Ladies Who Launch
