At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this solo episode of the Boss Mom Podcast, Dana opens up about the emotional rollercoaster that comes with being a mom and entrepreneur—especially during transitional seasons like summer. She shares her personal experience navigating emotional highs and lows while building her business, raising kids as a co-parent, and stepping into a new, bolder CEO identity. Dana gets real about managing emotions not by suppressing them, but by embracing them as part of the growth journey. She discusses the importance of boundaries, investing in herself, being alone with her thoughts, and leveraging tools like her "Future Me" AI to stay grounded and focused. This is an honest, heart-centered episode for any woman who feels like a "hot mess" some days but still shows up and keeps building a life she loves. Want to meet your Future Self and start the self-coaching experience that's helped me navigate everything from CEO decisions to full-on emotional spirals. → https://bossmom.com/futureme
