The Mom Founders Table

The idea of having to choose our career or family? I’m calling BULLSHIT and here’s why…

💡 Another narrative that keeps us small and from reaching our full potential. When you take the seat of choosing one over the other, you are sitting in a seat of powerlessness. But here’s the thing, you can design a life to embody it all. 

We are taught that we can’t scale our business and deepen our relationships simultaneously. Or that children hinder success; That there isn’t a way to rise up in leadership while being a present mother. 

So, today I am challenging you to break free from this mindset. You get to do both, because you are wise enough to design a life where you are fully supported in all of your roles. You get to choose the reality where you do both. 

Instead of buying into these beliefs that dim your light, what if you…

• Showed your kids what it is like to be successful and celebrate the wins inside your business that you have built?
• Brought in the strengths you have as a mother to your business to nurture your relationships with ideal clients + customers?
•  Whole-heartedly believed you can be a successful multi-faceted woman, who is building her empire while being a kick-ass mom? 

I refuse to choose. And I invite you to dive deep into this mindset too. Because you, CEO, deserve to prove yourself right. You can do this. You were meant for this.

Work-life balance… the thing we hear, we know we need, but getting there is a different story…

If you’ve struggled with finding balance in your personal and business life, this episode is for you.

💡 Today I am joined by my long-time client, friend, and team member, Jess Escalona! As a mother, CEO, and business-owner, Jess found herself overwhelmed with the responsibilities that came with each role. Once she recognized this busy-cycle and the unsustainability of it, she decided to make the shift to truly embody a work-life balance!

Jess and I discuss the mindset switch that it takes to call in balance. To achieve this, you must learn to prioritize YOURSELF, and recognize that the go-go-go lifestyle leads to one thing and one thing only: continuous burnout. 

From Jess’s experience, she shares that to embody balance fully, you must…

• Unlearn old beliefs. Surrendering to the flow is critical, and knowing that you do not need to sacrifice your time, energy, and mental health guides you to inner peace. 
• Trust that this prioritization of yourself is okay. There needs to be trust in your life and business that things will not fall apart without you. 
• Design your ideal schedule and stick to it. It’s one thing to have the idea to make time for your family, but it’s when you put it in action the magic happens.
• Take in the data of when you build balance, meaning there might be a clue on where you need additional support, boundaries, trust, etc. Be open to recreating what your day looks like!

I’d be lying if I said being balanced is easy, because it truly takes maintenance and management. But when you are dedicated to tuning into your inner power and taking back control over your life, you start to understand where your time + energy are truly needed. 

And sticking to those boundaries you have created for your daily life is powerful as fuck!

The story of who I am is something I hold onto as I venture onto new paths. I thank and honor my past self because she taught me strength, resilience, and the importance of standing in my truth. 

Trigger warning: This episode includes sensitive topics such as drugs, alcohol, sexual abuse, arrests, sudden deaths, and experiences in jail. 

💡 This episode is a little different. I am an open book, but I realized I haven’t shared my full story, only bits and pieces. And to know the whole story, I knew I needed to share every chapter. Even the dark ones.

Very early on I craved safety, security, and love. Truly at the core, I wanted to be fully seen. But I didn’t know how to find it in a healthy way. Which led me down a decade-long path of self-destruction. 

From 14 years old and on, I thought I would find inner peace by numbing myself. I entered this phase of self-sabotage, abusing my body, and slipped into this mode of feeling as if I had no worth or purpose.

Then it hit me. As I was staring at my blurry reflection in a jail cell, knowing that I made major mistakes, I desperately desired to release the shame and take a step towards finding myself.

This journey of self-discovery  helped me realize…

• The external doesn’t change us. We need to turn inward to create real impact in our life. 
• To succeed in life, we need to ask for help and be transparent when we need extra support.
• To reach impact, we need to continue to put one step in front of the other. Even if the journey feels slow at first, eventually you will realize that you are miles down a path that embodies your truth.

My past taught me what needed to change in order for my light to shine. It led me to finding my person, the one who sees my authenticity, becoming a mother of 3 beautiful children, connecting with incredible and diverse women who also desire to share their mission, and ultimately let me find myself. And love every inch of who I am.

✨Are you desiring to turn your business into your legacy? If you are an established business owner who is ready to operate from a place of alignment and find your inner fire, this is for YOU! Click here to learn more.

Being an adult is not synonymous with no longer playing. In fact, here is your permission to invite in more play to regain the child-like and free spirit energy that comes with it!

💡 In this episode I am joined by my former client Adrienne Hofmann who is an early childhood educator and nature-play specialist. Adrienne shares the importance of finding your version of play as an adult. 

Oftentimes when you decide to give  yourself a break in whatever form, it is difficult to get out of the go-go-go cycle. But take an honest look at why you feel the need to be constantly working towards something and challenge yourself to take time where you instead create the judgment-free space for you to integrate play into your life. 

Truly allow yourself to free-flow during this moment. Ditch the idea that you need to perform. Because when you embody this perspective and mindset, you….

• Operate from a place that is no longer fear based. You step back into that version of yourself that isn’t afraid to remove filters. 
• Realize that your time for play doesn’t represent your performance. It is not for anyone else, it is for YOU. 
• Tune into your mind, body, and emotions. You allow yourself to break free from your outer shell and return back to your inner self (the one who craves these moments of ease)

Think back to when you last played.

There weren't time constraints. 

There wasn't any judgment.

There weren't any rules. 

Giving yourself this time is the foundation of living in balance. And as business owners, I know you understand the importance of bringing in this alignment fully.

✨Are you an established female-business owner who desires growth but doesn't want to sacrifice your time and energy? This was designed for YOU.

Failing doesn’t set you back, instead it teaches you a new way to move forward. =

💡 Kelly Adams,  my beautiful friend who is a business & life coach, is putting the spotlight on me and putting her interview skills to work!

Together we discuss why making peace with your past and learning from our life experiences is the key to finding momentum for your future. 

Kelly’s insight and questions sheds light on the phrase “failing forward”. This term embodies…

• The invitation to release the fear of things ending because failing doesn’t mean that. Instead it is a fresh start and a new beginning. 
• Choosing to live and finding your drive for the road ahead. It’s to surrender to the knowing that you can create purpose, direction, and self-love. 
• Cultivating trust with yourself regardless of the external because turning inward allows you find your power.

Past experiences do not define you, however honoring each version of yourself allows you to witness the power of embracing who you are now and the journey ahead. By doing this, you step into our fullness knowing each part of you has always belonged together.

Uncovering your truth is power. Your journey is your own personal blueprint to build self-love, success, and trust. Knowing where you belong, what deserves your energy, and how to create balance protects your inner peace. 

Your path is YOURS. Define it YOUR way.

The first step towards truly thriving in your life and business starts with releasing constriction, limitations, and tunnel vision!

💡 No matter how many people want to paint the picture of “everything is flowing with ease”, it doesn’t dismiss the pressure the rest of us feel of being able to perform and create at peak level. The tunnel vision of where you are now and where you want to be is real, but it can blind you from the alternatives. 

The alternative options that can accelerate YOU even faster. 

It’s time to reframe this mindset- being fueled from a place of pressure, you can start to feel stuck. Instead, look at the ways you can show up in your life and business with authenticity and inner power to create your freedom. 

When you move from a place of feeling internal liberation, you…

• No longer have to wait for the external to give you permission to move. The momentum has always been within YOU.
• Recognize that fear limits you, but when removed time and time again, you continuously build the pathway towards your desires. You remind yourself of your worth along the way.
• Can build bigger when you trust your choices, body, voice, and inner self. Removing the armor to be fully seen unleashes your potential to the world. 

How would you move, act, and show up if you had no fear? No limitations? No restrictions? 

You would stand in a place of magnetism. Attracting abundance. Freedom. Wealth. Power. And so much more.

It’s okay to be afraid of the unknown, but taking control of how far that fear goes is up to you. Free yourself from your own bullshit. Trust yourself to move. Trust yourself to make it big. Trust yourself to actually reach your goals, because you can. Learn how to choose yourself.

Are you content with your life or are you complacent?  If it isn’t the first one, know that you are worthy of creating a life by design.

💡 Instead of feeling trapped by your current circumstances, there are simple shifts you can take to start living a life that embodies YOU. Exploring your intentions can transform you from burnout culture to living in tune with all of your desires.

To learn how to move and operate from a place of personal freedom, I called in my client + friend Cady Huss. Cady is a probate lawyer and coach, who is on a mission to change her industry; to prove that there is a new way to work without running yourself into the ground. It can (and should) be in alignment with your core values and desires, regardless of the industry.

If you crave personal freedom, here’s what Cady suggests you shift to cultivate this fully:

• Learn to not give up. Prove to yourself that what you love to do is worth navigating through to create a daily life that supports you.
• Explore your options. If you have become complacent, explore what else is out there that allows you to flourish.
• Ask for support. Whether it’s a new perspective you are looking for, to delegating your tasks, or for someone to simply create space for you during this shift, find your circle that is willing to fill you up. 

You can be grateful for what you have, AND still desire more. You always have a choice. Choose the option that lets you step into your personal power even more.  Bet on yourself, you are so damn worth it.

When you push your wellbeing to the back-burner, the truth is that your physical, mental, and emotional self will suffer. There is strength in honoring yourself fully. In fact, it’s the key to making you powerful as fuck.

Instead of just doing, start being. Are you forgetting to lead yourself?

💡As a leader and mentor, you can step fully into your power when you embody the idea of leading yourself. Leadership is not only a foundational skill for becoming a successful CEO, but it is impactful when you make the shift to being self-led.

My incredible friend,  former client, and leadership mentor, Erin O’Quinn, is here to drop some truth bombs about effective leadership. When you tap into your truth as a leader you…

• Create a space that when people come to you, it’s not a transaction. It’s a transformation. 
• Encompass what it means to lead not only in business, but inside your home, with your friends, and everyday interactions.
• Build the tool box for efficient communication, time-management, and cultivating trust.

Leadership is switching the awareness of others to help them commit to their growth. It is a conscious choice that you help them recognize, but this is only possible when you actually practice what you preach. Don’t just tell them, show them.

In order to lead better, you need to lead yourself better. There is power in investing in yourself. Doing this allows you to perform from an elevated space and raise others up to join you, and that’s powerful as f**k.

Burning out in your business isn’t a necessity for growth, but it does happen. And as a business owner, you still have to show up for your responsibilities regardless… but how?

💡 Back again with the hard truth: burnout is real. And valuing your energy so you feel aligned is important, but if you desire success, you have to learn how to show up and lead no matter what you are feeling. 

There’s a false sense of security floating around the entrepreneur space- as if every day as a business owner is rainbows and butterflies. And that, for lack of a better word, is bullshit. 

Let’s pull back the curtain and tap back into reality. To show up and lead effectively, no matter where you are, you…

• Must normalize the peaks and valleys. Success isn’t linear, it is a wave. So grab your surfboard and learn to ride it. 
• Understand that a picture-perfect business is unrealistic. Cut the expectation and embrace the journey.
• Stop telling yourself that you aren’t enough, and you know that you always have something to offer.

When you choose to believe that whatever phase you are in provides a lesson, you start to find value in every part of your journey. Not only will you showcase transparency, honesty, and vulnerability, you will continue to scale your business from a place of truth.

You can call in success from any place. From the peaks, or the valley’s, you choose how to digest the lesson you are learning in the present moment. But know this: You need to believe in yourself. You were meant for this.

Building sustainable wealth doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice living and spending on what you want!

💡 In this episode we are chatting with CFO + financial mentor, Caitlynn Eldridge about the balance of investing, saving, and spending all in a way that fully aligns with your goals to expand.

When you start to embody this balance you realize…

• Money you invest will come back to you in the same amount, or greater!
• It isn’t about having a bigger bank account, but what growth opportunities you will be able to afford with it.
• That releasing the tie between time and money can be cut. You can invest, take risks, and continue to feel secure.

Challenging your money beliefs will allow you to see that money flows when you are open and dedicated to receiving it. Caitlynn shares the importance of releasing that scarcity mindset, because it proves to your mind that there is a lack of something. 

An abundance mindset lets you rewrite the story of what is flowing back to you. Lean into your intuition to guide you towards financial abundance in a way that feels good for you. While also having trust that your legacy will provide for you.
