Do these moms know something I don't know? Why yes...yes they did! Coaching, Mental Well Being Support, A Village is the biggest differentiating factor I have seen in moms that are peaceful and seem to understand that juggling it all does not need to be solely on our shoulders. Motherhood is a BIG job combined with running businesses and homes and when we have a team to do life with...it truly becomes Happy In The Hustle.

There was a time when I first began business that I saw other mom leaders as competition. I always want to be honest. But it was a lonely, tiring, fraught filled existence. When I grew up, when I matured, when I realized how competition was cutting my enjoyment in life short I embraced collaboration. The #1 shift to my mindset was recognizing I AM THE UNIQUE part of my business. Nobody will ever have my brain and therefore I don't need to worry. I began to open my world up to other women business leaders, other entrepreneurs to grow to expand and rise with AND LIFE GOT REALLY FUN! Collaboration is a huge key to living Happy In The Hustle!

Ughhhh! Trying to be who other people want us to be is EXHAUSTING. Take control of life and discover what brings you energy. What lights you up? What makes your soul absolutely smile? Life is Energy. When we become comfortable with our own energy and how to stay rejuvenated we can begin to attract the energy we need to live the life we love. It's a powerful, unstoppable, limitless way to live. Cheers to Happy In The Hustle Life!

Be love and watch love circulate in your life. So many people struggle with a lack of self worth and tend to lash out at those around them because hurt people, hurt people. If we can take a moment to really think about nurturing our minds and bodies to intentionally love ourselves more- it can unlock a beautiful way of life. Ways I like to nurture myself: I take time to gratitude journey absolutely everyday with a good cup of coffee. I make sure to workout everyday to get my endorphins flowing and produce a positive body image. I work to be truly present with people as spending time with friends and family fills my souls with joy. How do you like to nurture yourself?

Networking can be such a downtrodden word in the world of business. I have found after opening multiple businesses that transitioning the mindset from what's in it for me at this event to being curious and open to learning about other people can make it much easier to approach networking. Can it be awkward at the coffee bar wondering who to sit by that will be most beneficial or thinking about the litany of all the other things you could be doing instead of networking? Of course. I recommend shifting to a mindset of possibility and envisioning who you want in your network. It turns it into an exciting opportunity instead of a dreaded event. I also know the more confident I have become as a business owner, I no longer feel that poverty mentality of 'having' to get business at a networking event but instead looking at it as an opportunity to serve with community members. You just never know that one person you could meet that could introduce you to exactly who you dreamed of meeting to uplevel the amount of positive impact you can make. Cheers to living Happy In The Hustle! Michelle

Becoming a mom after climbing the corporate ladder for 10 years was a shock for me. How can taking a shower become my barometer of a successful day after a decade of working to break million dollar revenue goals? What was this new body that seemed to not be recognizable to me?

So I set off on a journey to rediscover who I am.
