What does it take to build a thriving business in a male-dominated industry—while raising kids, navigating personal loss, and staying rooted in purpose?

In this inspiring episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker speaks with Brittany Hansen, mom of three, Chief Discovery Officer at a groundbreaking tech company, and a fierce advocate for effective communication in business and life.

From managing international teams to tackling real-world issues like human trafficking through strategic partnerships, Brittany shares how her company, Viiiision, helps businesses transform the way they deliver information—making content accessible, trusted, and multilingual through smart mobile delivery platforms. But what makes Brittany’s story even more compelling is the heart behind the hustle.

In this candid conversation, Brittany opens up about:

✅ Breaking into the tech world without a tech degree

✅ Launching a business with her sister-in-law and strengthening their family bond in the process

✅ Why honest, clear communication is the most underrated business skill

Brittany also shares how her business got its start by simply asking better questions and staying curious—something she believes is essential to both leadership and relationships. She and Charisse explore real examples of how choosing curiosity over cynicism can shift outcomes, especially in business scenarios where miscommunication often breeds distrust.

The conversation takes a tender turn as Brittany vulnerably shares her experience with miscarriage and infertility—connecting with Charisse’s own story of loss. Their shared reflections on grief, resilience, and the unspoken strength of mothers is one of the most touching moments on the podcast.If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing too much, or not sure how to balance family with big dreams, this episode will remind you: You’re not alone.

Is it really possible to go from surviving to thriving—with real estate as your path?

In this powerhouse episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker sits down with real estate investor, construction business owner, and community revitalizer Tara Zaluski, who shares how she went from being a newly divorced single mom to building a multi-million-dollar portfolio of over 50+ rental properties, flipping dozens more, and launching a white-glove property management company—all while raising two amazing children and pouring into her community.

But Tara’s story isn’t just about success in real estate. It’s about resilience, faith, and vision.

You’ll hear how Tara turned trauma and hardship—including PTSD and a difficult marriage—into a foundation for personal growth, entrepreneurship, and impact. Tara now teaches financial literacy to high school students in underprivileged areas, helping the next generation understand the basics of passive income, credit, and generational wealth—one conversation at a time.

What makes someone a true leader—not just a manager? In this powerful episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker sits down with leadership expert and coach Allie Stewart to unpack what it really takes to lead teams, grow people, and build thriving businesses and organizations.

Whether you're leading a team at work, running your own business, or managing the chaos at home, leadership is a skill that touches every area of life. But too often, we confuse managing with leading—and that’s where problems begin.

Allie brings years of coaching experience to the table and shares how great leaders don't just give orders—they create safe, empowering environments where others can thrive. From hiring to performance management, from motivation to communication, Allie helps us understand how to lead with clarity, empathy, and impact.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The key differences between managers and leaders

• How to create a safe space where employees can grow and take risks

• Why setting clear expectations during hiring is one of the most overlooked leadership skills

• What to do when your team isn't motivated (hint: it's not just about perks or pay!)

• How to build trust and increase buy-in from your team

• Real-life examples of leadership transformations from Allie’s coaching clients

• Practical advice for new or struggling leaders

Allie and Charisse also explore the emotional side of leadership—especially for women juggling family and work. They talk about the importance of self-awareness, personal growth, and self-care, because you can’t pour into others when your own cup is empty.

And for moms listening, Allie offers encouraging advice: You are already leading. Whether it's your household, your business, or both, you're influencing and shaping lives every day. The key is to become intentional about how you lead, what kind of energy you're bringing, and how to model resilience for those around you.

If you’ve ever felt unsure about your leadership style, overwhelmed by team dynamics, or just unsure how to grow as a leader while managing everything else in your life—this episode will inspire you to level up with confidence.

Because leadership isn’t about control—it’s about connection. 💡

Are you feeling stuck in your business… but can't quite figure out why? You’re grinding, showing up, building, creating—but underneath it all, something feels off. In this powerful episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker sits down with healing and leadership coach Denise G. Lee to uncover the hidden truth behind why so many ambitious women burn out, stall in their growth, or feel disconnected from their work: unresolved trauma.

This isn’t just about your to-do list or marketing plan—it’s about what’s really driving your decisions, your burnout, and your connection to your audience.

Denise breaks down the difference between Big T and Little t trauma and explains how both can sneak into your business. From childhood wounds to cultural conditioning, from burnout at the peak of success to constant self-doubt, she shares why healing isn’t just a personal journey—it’s a business strategy.

You’ll hear us discuss:

• The myth of needing to “choose one thing” as a mompreneur

• Why emotional authenticity is your greatest business advantage

• How trauma affects visibility, confidence, and client relationships

• The science behind your business behaviors (including Transactional Analysis!)

• What burnout really looks like for high achievers

• Why controlling the chaos isn’t the goal—embracing it is

This episode will leave you thinking differently about what’s holding you back—and how much power you actually have. Denise shares how she went from sex addiction and alcoholism to becoming a transformational coach helping others step into leadership by first stepping into healing.

We also dive into practical tips for managing fear during uncertain times (hello, economy and global conflict), how to attract clients without losing your authenticity, and how to thrive in your own energetic lane—whether you love long-form writing or viral reels aren’t your jam.

And for all the new moms out there: Denise offers one of the most beautiful, grounded pieces of advice you’ll hear—reminding us all to “enjoy the beautiful mess.”

If you’re a mom, entrepreneur, or woman who’s ready to lead from a place of wholeness instead of hustle, this episode is your invitation.
