In today's episode of Creative Moms Focus, Tara, Samantha, and I are diving into a topic that might surprise you: why sometimes your business best friends can be even more valuable than a paid business coach.

Don't get us wrong—we love our coaches! They bring structure, proven frameworks, accountability, and step-by-step processes that can help us scale strategically. But there's something incredibly powerful about having a business BFF who truly gets your life as a mom and small business owner. When you're juggling work and family life, a friend in the trenches with you can offer relatable advice, share real-time resources, celebrate wins with you, and offer genuine empathy because they're facing the same challenges. That intimacy and ease of accessibility can be invaluable!

So how do you actually find your business besties? Whether you are looking for a new BFF that is a photographer too, or you're seeking a creative entrepreneur that's a mom running a small business, we're sharing our top tips for meeting like-minded women. Through cultivating authentic friendships and creating your own circle built on mutual support and shared experience, the advice you give and receive feels more like a lifeline than a strategy session.

If you've ever wondered whether a business BFF could impact your growth as much as a coach—or where to even find one—this episode is for you. Take it from us, three business best friends, that have enriched each other's lives in business, friendship, motherhood, and more!
