At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family.

In this episode, Dana breaks down the five non-negotiables for moms building sustainable businesses. From understanding why isolation kills momentum to getting brutally honest about whether you need money now, are monetizing your healing, or want impact and visibility, each reason requires a completely different strategy. She explains why traditional time management fails moms, introduces the three internal parts (Mom, Woman, Voice) fighting for your attention, and reveals why messy, authentic marketing is now your biggest competitive advantage. You don't need more time or fewer responsibilities to succeed, you just need to stop building like someone without kids and start creating a business that fits your actual life.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family.

In this episode, Dana opens up about the challenge of receiving love and support as a mom—and why we're often the ones standing in our own way. From realizing she never asked for her own Christmas stocking to understanding that people can't read our minds the way we read theirs, she shares the raw and honest truth about mom resentment, over-giving, and the guilt that comes with doing it all in silence. She explains how knowing what you want, identifying where you get resentful, and actually asking for help can transform your relationships and your boundaries. You don't need to do it all alone to be a good mom—you just need the courage to tell the people who love you how they can show up for you.

Dana sits down with Leah Remillet to tackle the guilt and hesitation that stops moms from pursuing their business dreams. From the gender gap in confidence (men apply for jobs at 60% qualified, women wait for 100%) to the damaging cultural myth that good mothers must sacrifice everything, Leah shares why that persistent business idea on your heart isn't accidental, it found you because you're meant to act on it. She reveals the truth about successful mom entrepreneurs: they don't do everything alone, they build systems that create freedom, and they bring their kids into the journey instead of hiding their ambitions. You don't need perfect credentials or the ideal setup to start building a business, you just need to stop waiting for permission that will never come and take action before that dream finds someone else who will.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family.

In this episode, Dana breaks down the critical difference between sharing that builds your business and sharing that kills sales. She explores the concept of wounds versus scars—why sharing too soon can make customers back away, and how waiting for the lessons to crystallize creates content that converts. From her own experience with grief tanking her revenue to learning when vulnerability becomes a powerful teaching tool, Dana gives you the framework to know exactly what to share online and when to share it.

In this episode, Dana sits down with Dr. Shannon Irvine to explore why your brain actively works against your business growth—and how to rewire it. From hitting invisible revenue ceilings to the "I'll just do it myself" trap that keeps mom entrepreneurs stuck, Shannon shares the neuroscience behind why all your strategies aren't working. She reveals how limiting beliefs programmed in childhood create subconscious patterns that sabotage success, and walks through her proven 67-day framework for building new neural pathways that make scaling, delegating, and wealth feel safe. You don't need more hustle or willpower—you need to understand how your brain works and intentionally rewire it for the success you're building.

In this episode, Dana addresses the spiral every mom entrepreneur knows too well: when your brain has 80,000 tabs open and everything feels equally important. She reveals how we condition everyone around us to need us, making it impossible to prioritize effectively. Dana introduces the FEE test and ROI framework to help you distinguish between being busy and being productive, shares why not all time with your kids has the same value (and why that's okay), and explains the three-step process to pull yourself back when you're overwhelmed. From the guilt of wasted time to the reality of managing multiple "babies" in your business, she gets honest about what it takes to stop spiraling. You don't need a perfect system—you just need clarity on what actually moves the needle.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family.

Dana and Krista get real about why starting a business might be the smartest parenting move you'll ever make—not just for the income, but for the life skills your kids absorb by watching you. They discuss breaking rules vs. following them, teaching autonomy through example, and why hiding your struggles from your kids means they miss the entire lesson. Krista shares how her 16-year-old daughter Bri landed her first job after watching her mom fearlessly approach local business owners, and Dana explains why she believes 100% of moms should have a business—even if it's small, seasonal, or just brings in vacation money. This is an empowering, slightly ranty conversation for any mom who wants to raise kids who question the status quo and create their own path.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family.

A woman in a flowing gown and heels carefully straps on knee pads, positions herself at the top of a staircase, and deliberately throws herself down the stairs. It sounds absurd. Maybe even reckless. But when you understand why Michelle Lang does this—and what it represents—it becomes one of the most honest conversations about motherhood you'll ever encounter.

After 12 years away from her career as a professional stunt performer, Lang has returned to throwing herself off buildings, getting hit by cars, and tumbling down staircases. But this isn't just about revisiting old skills. It's about what happens when mothers finally get enough mental space to ask themselves a devastating question: "Who am I if I'm not just someone's mom?"
