Doing a little crossover episode with my friend (and alumni coaching client!) Katelyn Werner, who recently launched her own podcast, The Patchwork Narrative.

Katelyn interviewed me about why motherhood doesn't come as naturally to me as building a business does, how I set boundaries to protect my time and energy, and what it really means to define success on your own terms.

It's an honest, thoughtful, and refreshingly unfiltered look at the push-and-pull between ambition, family, and self.

The Patchwork Narrative is a podcast about the lives of women balancing motherhood and entrepreneurship. Hosted by Katelyn Werner, each episode features candid conversations about building a business while raising a family—what works, what's hard, and what no one talks about. It's a space for honest storytelling, practical insight, and connection for anyone navigating the overlap of caregiving and creating - because no one has it all figured out, but we each know a thing or two.

Trigger warning: This episode contains discussion of miscarriage and pregnancy loss. If these are sensitive topics for you, please take care while listening, and feel free to skip past that part of our conversation. 41:46- 45:50
