how can i fix this so that my custom component is loaded and displayed at the same time as my main.mxml file

If you're waiting for some asynchronous operation (e.g. a RemoteObject call) to complete, you could wrap your "main page" in a container, set its initial visibility to false and only flip it when your operation completes. You can also use states in your main.mxml for the same effect.
