Making Moves with Mom Boss Co-Host Jennifer Mawson opens up about a chapter she wrote for in a brand new anthology book called "Magnificently Made", in which she explains why she chose to Move 7 times in 5 Years with a small child in tow! Life begins outside your comfort zone and she talks about how she took the leap of faith to become a real estate investor by literally moving to chase her dreams and how getting uncomfortable ultimately worked out for her family in the end!

If you are expecting or are unsure what doulas do, like we were, you'll definitely want to listen to this one!

We are joined by Kelly and Hollie, two New Jersey doulas, who share exactly what they do and how they've helped their client over the years welcome new bundles of joys into their lives. Aside from their doula professions, both also have other complimentary businesses geared towards helping moms, including plant based prepared food service and pre/post natal massages.

Sometimes the corporate gigs aren't as glamorous as some may think. But also, life changes, and so does our scope on career paths. Our good friend Alissa joins the group to talk about her journey in leaving a corporate job, where she was highly paid with a ton of job security, to pursue a career in real estate. And if some of you are not aware, real estate is anything but consistent. Mom Boss Sue also discusses her journey leaving corporate to real estate as well.

Soon after you have your first baby, you often hear, "so when is baby number two coming?" But what if you want to be one and done? And how do you know you want to be one and done when societal pressure often has us feeling like multiple children is the only option? We invited our friend Dawn to chat about her decision on only having one child and also share our thoughts and observations as well.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and in honor, we invited our friend Joanne Musarra-Pipitone, to discuss the tragedy of losing her older sister to domestic violence and the steps she's taken since that day to educate and advocate for the cause. Joanne not only brings us back to the day her sister was brutally murdered at the hands of a former boyfriend, but also fills us in on her role with the Domestic Violence Unit with the Sayreville Police Department and her tireless work with Dina's Hope, a not-for-profit organization she started to help raise funds and awareness for those affected by DV.

The event she mentions on the show, "Silent Witness Candlelight Vigil," takes place on October 17, 2023 from 6pm - 7pm at 1 Samuel Place, Woodbridge NJ.

If you are or know someone suffering from domestic violence, there is hope and help. See below for resources and know that all police departments have a DV unit and are available to help in any way they can.
