I’m obsessed with morning routines. There’s just something about hearing how people start their day—their rituals, routines, and even those quirky little habits—that gives me a glimpse into their world. 

Over the years, my mornings have evolved—a lot. Parenthood, business, and life in general have reshaped how I approach my day. Today, I’m giving you a backstage pass to my exact morning playbook: what I do to set the tone, the rituals that ground me, and the productivity hacks that keep me on track.

Whether you’re juggling life as a CEO, managing parenthood, or just trying to figure out what works for you, there’s something here for you. So grab your coffee or lace up those sneakers, and let’s dive into my morning playbook!

When I think about the incredible women in the Goal Digger community, I’m constantly blown away by the way you’re showing up for your dreams while navigating the beautiful, messy realities of life. 

Today’s guest, Samantha Gaunt, embodies that perfectly. She’s a blended mom of five, a creative entrepreneur, and the founder of Simply Scaling—a business that helps mompreneurs streamline their businesses and align their passions with their monthly cycles for a strategic edge. How amazing is that?

Sam reached out to me in the Goal Digger Podcast Insiders Facebook Group with a challenge I know so many of us face: how to prioritize intentional growth while protecting your energy. With so many opportunities calling your name, how do you decide where to focus? How do you shift from “doing it all” to doing what matters most—without losing yourself in the process?

In our coaching session, we explore Sam’s journey as a multi-passionate mompreneur and unpack the importance of saying “no” to good opportunities to say “yes” to the great ones. Let’s dive into how to identify what truly moves the needle in your business, align your work with your personal values, and create boundaries that honor your energy.

Have you ever hit a huge milestone… and realized you had no one to truly celebrate with? Entrepreneurship can feel isolating, but here’s the truth: you don’t have to do it alone.

Over the years, I’ve learned that the key to thriving in life and business wasn’t about doing it all yourself, but about creating a circle that lifts you up: a group of people who support you, inspire you, and help you grow in ways you never thought possible.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to stop doing it alone—how to build meaningful relationships, find like-minded people, and nurture those connections even when life feels overwhelming. I’ll share personal stories, like my fan-girl moment with Amy Porterfield that turned into a life-changing friendship, and give you actionable tips to start forming your own circle of support.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re cheering for everyone else but no one’s cheering for you, this episode is your reminder to prioritize connection. Because when we surround ourselves with the right people, incredible things happen.
