Hi Reader, If you’ve ever thought about starting your own business or you’ve already begun, chances are you’ve met these fears head-on: Doubt: Will this even work? Lack: What if I can’t make enough money? Judgment: What will people think of me? I’ve been there too. As a working mom with a demanding job and family responsibilities, I often wondered if I had what it took. Here’s the truth I’ve learned: Building a business is less about the *perfect* strategy and more about who you’re becoming...

Hello Reader, Six years ago, at my dad’s wake, I kept hearing his voice ask me a single, haunting question: 'What will your legacy be?' That question changed the trajectory of my life. Two weeks later, I incorporated my business - not because I had it all figured out, but because I didn’t want fear to dictate my future. Today I honor my dad's 6th death anniversary with this week’s podcast, From Grief to Growth: How My Dad’s Words Shape My Business and how he continues to guide me. I share:...

Hello Reader, Ever set a big goal, then life got in the way?The sick kid. The late nights at work. The weekend that disappeared in errands. That used to throw me completely off. I’d feel like I 'failed' and wonder if I’d ever make my business work. Until I discovered the secret: systems. Systems are what keep me moving, even when everything else falls apart. My morning routine sets the tone for the day. My evening reflection pulls out lessons (even from tough days). My weekend batching gets...

Hi Reader, This week’s podcast was born out of a messy Saturday that started at 2 a.m. in the A&E with my son (he’s okay now, thank goodness 🙏). It reminded me of something I’ve been learning over and over again: It’s not your to-do list that creates your reality. It’s the energy you bring to everything you do. Last week we talked about mindset and identity. This week, we’re onto the E in my MES Framework: Energy. Here’s the truth: You can have the best plan in the world, but if you’re...

Hi Reader, A few years ago, it took me ~2 years to go from 'nice to meet you' to 'yes, I’m a client'. Today it’s ~5 months - while working full-time and building in ~1 hour a day. What changed wasn’t a trendy tactic. It was who I was being. Inside this week’s podcast episode, I share: The identity → beliefs → emotions → actions chain that quietly controls your results (and timelines) The refund that hurt, and the alignment lesson that followed Why my newest client arrived inbound with zero...

Hi Reader, For years, I thought I only had two choices: Stay in my job for the steady paycheck — but miss out on time with my kids. Or quit to be there for them — and lose financial security my family depends on. Sound familiar? I call this the false choice. Because the truth is, you don’t have to choose between career or kids. Here’s what I did instead: I carved out just 1 focused hour a day in the margins of mom-life. I stopped waiting for the 'perfect time' or 3-hour blocks that never...

Hi Reader, It's August 2025 - the start of my 12-month experiment to lean into and do what scares me but that I know it's the right thing for me to do. Not anyone else, just me. Beginning with sharing about a topic that I used to hide from others, afraid what they would think of me if they found out. This week’s podcast is one of the most personal I’ve recorded. It’s about fear. And how it sneaks into our decisions when we’re building a business and trying to grow into the next version of...

Hi Reader, I used to hide behind quote posts and faceless content. What would my corporate colleagues think if they saw me talking about my side hustle? What if my boss questioned my commitment? What if other moms judged me for 'trying to do it all'? So I stayed invisible. Safe updates only. No personal stories. No mention of my business. But here's what I realized: My fear of judgment was keeping me from helping the working mom scrolling at 11 PM, feeling completely trapped between a job...

Reader, If you’ve ever felt so overwhelmed by all the advice about 'how to grow your business' that you don’t know what to do anymore… I get it. As a full-time working mom myself, I know how hard it is to juggle family, career, and the dream of building something on the side. When we’re already stretched thin, the noise of conflicting strategies only adds to the exhaustion. This week on the podcast, I shared: Why overwhelm keeps you stuck (and what it’s really doing to your brain and body)...
