In this special episode, I’m bringing you behind the scenes to This Mother Means Business LIVE, where I had the incredible honour of kicking off the day with a keynote presentation. If you’ve ever felt like you're drowning in expectations—whether from society, your business, or even yourself—this one’s for you.

I share my deeply personal journey from running a CrossFit gym as a brand new mom, to burning that business down (literally), and finally learning how to build a life and business that puts me first. This talk is a raw, honest, and empowering reminder that you always have a choice. I unpack what it means to redefine success, reset your priorities, and create space for yourself—without guilt. If you’re ready to stop playing by everyone else’s rules and finally build a business that supports your life (not the other way around), hit play.
