Rebel Mom Boss

Being a mom is hard. Being a mom to two under two is a whole other level. Doing all that while successfully running an online business takes next level organization and discipline. That's exactly what this week's guest does.

Taylor Lane runs Spiritual Business School, an online business coaching program that helps online entrepreneurs maximize their potential. She also runs Moms Coworking After Bedtime, a Zoom co-working space for fellow moms.

Starting a business in the 21st century means designing, creating and updating your own website. It also means producing all your own branding, and that can be daunting, especially for entrepreneurs who aren't super tech savvy.

But, creating and launching a website isn't enough. You also need to think about making sure your site is discoverable, so that you can drive organic traffic (and business) to your page.

This week on Rebel Mom Boss, host Robyn Flynn is talking to an SEO specialist who helps small businesses and entrepreneurs bring their brand visions to life.

Kelly Kumler is a mom of three and founder of Kelly Ryann Co, a marketing consultancy business that ​​specializes in crafting strategic branding and websites for female founders and small businesses.

Entrepreneurship is not for the faint of heart.

When you decide to take that plunge and start your own business, success and income are suddenly no longer guaranteed, and paid time off becomes a thing of the past, which can be a major deterrent.

But for many of us, the freedom, flexible hours, and creative control are worth it.

This week on Rebel Mom Boss, we're joined by Kirsten Diachidos, who spent 12 years as a highschool science and art teacher before deciding to become a tattoo artist. She's also a mom of three who 100% fits the definition of a rebellious mom.

Do you ever wish you could clone yourself just to keep up with everything? I definitely have those days. This week's guest is all about delegating so you can get more of your valuable time back. Ashley Cox is a leadership coach who is all about helping female entrepreneurs stop taking on too much and start leading with clarity and confidence.

With over 20 years of experience guiding teams from local businesses to multi-million-dollar corporations, Ashley has seen it all, and she's sharing her insights with us today on Rebel Mom Boss.

How often are you posting pictures and videos of your kids on social media?

What kinds of pictures and videos are you posting of your children?

What is your plan to protect your child's digital identity?

For many parents, these aren't questions they've ever really considered. But, it's extremely important to start thinking about your child's digital footprint. And that starts TODAY.

Pretty much all of our guests here on Rebel Mom Boss are both moms and entrepreneurs or employees. But today, we're joined by an absolute powerhouse of a mom who is not only a Senior Social Media Coordinator at Mattel, she's also a content creator and a mom! With over 20,000 followers on TikTok, Isabella Robinson brings humor, raw honesty, and relatable parenting moments to life on her channel @minibaroudeurs, where she shares what it's really like raising her family.

From playroom chaos to pitch meetings, Isabella's mastered the art of balancing motherhood, creativity, content creation and a corporate career. And she and host Robyn Flynn discuss all things motherhood, parenting and social media.

Sleep isn't something most parents get a whole lot of.

Between late-night diaper changes, teething and hormonal shifts, it can feel next to impossible to get the recommended 7-9 hours a night.

This week on Rebel Mom Boss, host Robyn Flynn is talking to a certified pediatric sleep consultant and motherhood coach who is helping moms hit that sleep target.

Maria Moreno is a wife, mom of two and founder of Mindful Mother, her sleep consultancy business where she offers one-on-one coaching helping newborns, infants, toddlers, and children with special needs sleep.

Nothing causes the Sunday scaries quite like a toxic workplace.

So many women deal with unhealthy, unsupportive and sometimes even downright abusive working conditions. That's exactly what happened to Kaitlyn Rios, the founder of Faced With Grace.

After leaving her toxic workplace, Kaitlyn founded Faced With Grace, a charitable organization that offers mentorship, coaching, and leadership development for women navigating toxic workplaces.

If you're in a heterosexual relationship and you've got kids, chances are you've had at least ONE argument with your partner about the mental load… even if you don't realize it.

Today, women are expected to pay half the bills but still handle the lion's share of the cooking, cleaning, childcare, and household management. So, how do you get OUT of that cycle, and start to distribute these tasks more equitably?

Paige Connell, aka SheIsAPaigeTurner on Instagram and TikTok, has been tirelessly advocating for working moms on social media, highlighting what the mental load looks like. She's a mom of four, and absolutely fits the definition of rebellious mom.

In this conversation, we talk about the complexities of the mental load that women often bear in heterosexual relationships, particularly in the context of parenting.

We also discuss the invisible work of caregiving, the societal conditioning that leads to unequal distribution of household responsibilities, and the importance of communication and accountability between partners.

Paige eloquently shares her experiences as a mother of four and highlights the systemic issues surrounding childcare and emotional labor, emphasizing the need for a collective effort to address these challenges and model healthy relationships for future generations.

For young women today, it can feel next to impossible to break into male-dominated industries. Especially when those industries include sports and sports broadcasting. Throw in a couple of kids, and you've got a real recipe for stress, burnout, and mom guilt.

This week on Rebel Mom Boss, Robyn is joined by Jenn Hildreth, ESPN broadcaster, and Aimee Leone, Vice President of Talent Relations at Fox Sports. Jenn and Aimee are two incredible moms who are breaking barriers and redefining what it means to thrive in both sports media and motherhood.

Their new book, Tough as a Mother, talks about the struggles and triumphs that we all share as moms, as well as their own journeys as leaders, mothers, and trailblazers in an industry that hasn't historically made space for women. Especially those juggling diapers with deadlines.

We've all heard the saying, "You are what you eat." But for many moms, their daily nutrition comes from surviving on coffee and whatever leftovers their picky toddlers refuse to eat.

This week on Rebel Mom Boss, we're chatting with Lindsay Pleskot, a registered dietitian, recipe developer, and fellow mom. She's also the author of The Feel Good Meal Plan, a cook book packed with over 100 healthy, delicious recipes your family will love.
