In this deeply honest episode of This Mother Means Business, Laura Sinclair explores one of entrepreneurship’s most unexpected emotions — grief. While growth is often celebrated as exciting and empowering, it can also mean saying goodbye to familiar routines, relationships, and versions of ourselves. Laura shares personal stories from her 10-year journey — from leaving her corporate job to closing her gym — and reflects on how expansion often requires letting go.
