I'm No Longer The Default Parent with Claire Pelletreau


Listen Later

It's really fucking hard to be a mother entrepreneur with young kids, especially if you're the default or primary parent.

My guest this week has a robust business and she makes good money.

She realized last year that she was afraid to take on big projects in her business because as the primary parent of 2 young kids, she didn't consistently have the capacity she'd need to carry them through. She and her husband decided to switch roles. In this conversation she talks about what's changed since they made that switch.

We also talk about how we each navigate the complicated and ever changing terrain of co-parenting and doing life with our spouses.

Claire Pelletreau is a Facebook and Instagram ads expert and conversion optimization expert. Her mission is to actually help people see a return on the money they're putting into the Zuckerberg machine without the expensive help of an outside ad consultant. Claire is also the host of The Get Paid Podcast where she asks her guests everything about their businesses, including how much they charge - and how much they earn. Annie was a guest in May of 2022.

She's also my coach.

Here's some of what we talked about:

  • The conversation with her husband that led to switching roles
  • The resentment Claire used to feel about holding the family to-do list
  • Dealing with the cultural expectations of what a mother is supposed to do
  • How she feels different from most moms she meets
  • The joy of sometimes traveling alone
