What if the life you worked so hard to build no longer feels aligned with who you're becoming?In Part One of the ICON Series, Allison Walsh explores the powerful process of reinvention and what it means to intentionally create your next chapter. From career changes and entrepreneurship to identity, personal growth, and finding greater alignment, Allison shares the lessons she has learned through her own seasons of reinvention—and why starting again does not mean starting from scratch.You may have the career, business, title, recognition, or stability you once dreamed about, yet still feel like something is missing. If you've been asking yourself, “Is this still right for me?”, this episode will help you recognize the difference between simply being successful and being truly aligned with the life you're building.In This Episode, Allison Explores:The 4 signs that you may be ready for reinventionWhy success can stop feeling like alignmentHow gratitude and growth can exist at the same timeWhy your identity can become limiting when it is tied too closely to a title or roleThe difference between being capable of something and being called to continue doing itWhy working harder isn't always the answer when something no longer fitsHow to recognize whether a difficult season is developing you or depleting youWhat to do when your future requires more space than your current life can holdHow to conduct an intentional reinvention auditWhat you should honor, release, carry forward, and practice nowWhy you don't have to burn down your current life to begin creating your next chapterHow to start building your next career, business, or opportunity before you're ready to make the leapThe Reinvention AuditIf you're in a season of change, Allison challenges you to evaluate four things:HONOR — What has this chapter given you?RELEASE — What no longer fits?CARRY FORWARD — What experience, skills, relationships, reputation, and strengths are you taking with you?PRACTICE NOW — What decision can you make today that reflects the woman you're becoming?You don't need to map out the next five years. You simply need to get honest about your next right move.Your Challenge This WeekTake a few minutes to complete your own reinvention audit.Write down four headings:Honor. Release. Carry Forward. Practice Now.You don't need to figure out your entire future. Start by telling yourself the truth about what no longer fits and identifying one decision that moves you toward your next chapter.Because reinvention isn't about becoming someone entirely different.It's about becoming a more complete expression of who you've been becoming all along.

I keep getting asked the same thing lately. How am I still selling, still getting brand deals, still getting all these open doors, all on organic? No ads. No boosting.And the honest answer is I stopped caring about the numbers everyone else obsesses over. The follower count, the likes, all the stuff that makes you feel behind.There are only three numbers I actually look at now, and they changed everything about how I show up.If social media's been feeling heavy lately, this one's going to take some of that weight off

What if the key to a more impactful 2027 is the work you do before the new year begins? In this amazing episode of The She Believed She Could™ Podcast, Allison Walsh sits down with Carolina Flores to take you behind the vision for Iconic Impact, an intentional experience created for ambitious women, entrepreneurs, leaders, thought leaders, and change-makers who are ready to create their next incredible chapter. Allison and Carolina explore what it means to honor where you are while still being ambitious about where you're going. They dive into alignment, mindset, personal branding, visibility, leadership, influence, and the importance of channeling ambition in a direction that creates meaningful impact—not simply doing more because you feel like you should. They also talk about why Q4 is the perfect time to start preparing for 2027. Instead of waiting until January 1 to set goals, this is an opportunity to reflect on what worked, what didn't, what you want more of, what you're ready to release, and what you need to put in place now to enter the new year with clarity and momentum. For women who have spent years building behind the scenes, Allison and Carolina also explore the next step of becoming more visible. Whether you're growing a business, advancing your career, building a personal brand, leading a nonprofit, or expanding your influence, visibility can help you take the expertise and experience you've already built and turn it into greater impact. And then there's the power of community. Iconic Impact was created to bring together ambitious women who understand what it means to build something meaningful—and who believe that success becomes even more powerful when we use it to support, champion, and create opportunities for other women. From the incredible speaker lineup to the hands-on Impact Lab, meaningful connections, and the new Impact Grants supporting women entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders, Allison and Carolina share what makes this experience different and why every detail has been created with intention. If you're ready to strengthen your visibility, expand your influence, connect with women who understand the journey, and create a more intentional next chapter, this conversation will give you a glimpse of what's waiting for you at Iconic Impact. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why Q4 is the perfect time to prepare for a more impactful 2027 How to align your ambition with your purpose and values Why ambitious women often compare themselves to their own expectations How to move beyond comparison and focus on meaningful impact Why personal branding and visibility matter for your next level How women can turn their expertise into greater influence The importance of building a strong community around you Why you don't have to build your business or career alone How to recognize when you're ready for your next chapter What to expect from the Iconic Impact experience How Impact Lab will help women strengthen their visibility and create content How the Iconic Impact Grants will support emerging founders and nonprofit leaders Why investing in women creates a ripple effect of meaningful change How to think about your legacy and the women coming behind you Join Us at Iconic Impact Ready to create your next incredible chapter?

What happens when your business looks successful on paper—but behind the scenes, something feels completely off?In this episode, Holly sits down with Laura Schoenfeld to talk about what happens when the business you've built no longer fits the person—or life—you have today.Laura knows this firsthand. She was bringing in close to half a million dollars a year, yet she wasn't keeping enough of that revenue to make the business feel worth it. Eventually, she made a decision most entrepreneurs would be terrified to make: she shut down her multi-six-figure program and rebuilt her business.Today, Laura has intentionally designed her business around her strengths, her season of life, and the work that actually energizes her—all while raising two young daughters and working under 25 hours a week.She talks about why there is no one-size-fits-all business model, how to recognize when you're following a strategy that was designed for someone else, and how to diagnose the real structural issues in your business instead of continually trying to fix the symptoms.Laura also shares a simple 30-minute exercise you can do this week to uncover what's working, what's draining you, and where your business may be asking for a change.00:00:00 — Laura Schoenfeld's journey from a multi-six-figure program to rebuilding her business around her life00:01:30 — What building a life-first business means while raising two young children00:04:30 — Why an evergreen business model looked perfect on paper but ultimately didn't fit Laura00:07:30 — The danger of copying someone else's successful business model00:09:00 — Creating a personal decision-making framework instead of blindly following business trends00:12:00 — Using personality assessments, Human Design, birth charts, and AI to understand how you work best00:15:00 — Why there's no one-size-fits-all business model00:16:30 — The inside-out framework Laura uses to diagnose what's actually broken in a business00:19:30 — Why your natural communication style should influence your content strategy00:22:30 — Is your strategy really not working—or are you expecting results too quickly?00:25:30 — What happens when your expertise evolves but your audience doesn't00:28:30 — Laura's 30-minute exercise for identifying business misalignment00:31:30 — The business rule Laura has completely unlearned00:33:00 — Why social media engagement is no longer a metric Laura focuses on00:34:30 — Laura's advice to her younger self: be careful who you allow to influence youCONNECT WITH LAURA:Website: lauraschoenfeldrd.comInstagram: @laura.schoenfeldPodcast: The Nourished CEOThe CEO Type Quiz — lauraschoenfeld.com/quiz

Why Spiritual business success sometimes feel empty — even when you've achieved the money, growth and impact you thought would finally make you happy? Why Spiritual business success sometimes feel empty — even when you've achieved the money, growth and impact you thought would finally make you happy? 0:00 The Hidden Cost of High Achievement 0:36 A 30-Day Practice for Sustainable Growth 1:49 The Five-Step Path to Emotional Regulation 5:38 Weekly Reflection and Self-Leadership For many high-achieving spiritual entrepreneurs and mission-led leaders, creating more success isn't the problem. The problem is being able to hold, receive and actually enjoy it without overworking, overspending, moving the goalpost or unconsciously creating another problem. In this episode I'm sharing the simple 5-step daily practice I use to uncover and dissolve the unconscious patterns, protective strategies and beliefs that can make success feel unsafe, empty or never enough. Try this practice for the next 30 days to start noticing what's really happening beneath your thoughts, emotions and behaviours — and begin becoming the woman who can receive success without immediately needing to sabotage it, chase more or create chaos. Because sustainable success isn't only about creating more. It's about having the capacity to hold your health, your money, your business and yourself as you expand — and actually enjoy the life you're creating.

They also cover the strategic role of AI in modern personal branding, how to balance personal life with business content without oversharing, and Mallika's upcoming AI-powered branding tool.

What does it really take to build a billion-dollar career and have the courage to build something of your own, while raising 3 kids under 4?In this episode of Beyond Common Business Secrets, Tracey Watts Cirino sits down with longtime friend Tori Nook, a powerhouse in commercial real estate who has built an extraordinary career, generated more than $1 billion in real estate sales, and ultimately launched her own company.But this conversation isn't just about real estate.It's about what happens when ambition, resilience, motherhood, money, intuition, and the desire for freedom collide.Tori and Tracey go behind the scenes of what it really takes to build a successful business and a successful life, including the moments when you have to decide whether you're willing to keep playing by someone else's rules.They talk about the lessons Tori learned throughout her career, what finally pushed her to start her own company, the reality of building a business while raising a family, and why women shouldn't wait until they feel completely ready before they ask for more.And then the conversation goes somewhere even deeper:How much of your success comes from what you know and how much comes from trusting what you already know?If you've ever wondered whether you're capable of more, struggled with the pressure to do everything yourself, or questioned what true financial independence and freedom could look like for you, you're going to want to hear this conversation.This is a story about building wealth, betting on yourself, trusting your intuition, and creating success on your own terms.

What if you don't need to do more to create greater momentum? What if you need to pull back long enough to see what is working, what no longer belongs, and what deserves your full energy next? After a wonderfully full—and admittedly wild—summer, Allison began looking at her business through a different lens. She created space, ruthlessly evaluated what the company was carrying, and established extreme clarity for herself and her team around the next chapter of She Believed She Could. In this episode, Allison shares the three decisions that are reshaping the remainder of her year and challenges listeners to consider whether constant movement is taking them closer to the future they want—or simply keeping them busy. This conversation is for the woman with a full calendar, a growing vision, and the sense that something needs to become clearer before she moves forward. Memorable Moments From the Episode “There was only one week all summer that we were home for the whole week. It was a lot, but it's also what I prayed for. I'm incredibly grateful that we were able to do so many things together as a family.” “What if the most powerful thing you could do to move forward is pull back—not quit, not abandon the vision, but intentionally create enough space to see what's actually working and what no longer deserves your energy?” “We convince ourselves that movement is momentum, but they are not the same thing. You can be moving constantly and still not be moving in the right direction. You can have a full calendar and an empty strategy.” “Creating space can save you months or even years of pursuing the wrong priorities. White space is not wasted space. White space is where we reconnect with the vision.” “Where do I need to stop pushing long enough to see clearly? Maybe you need to stop saying yes to every opportunity and determine which ones actually support the future you want.” “Sometimes we pull back because we're afraid, but sometimes we pull back because we're preparing to leap—and those are two completely different things.” “For every part of our business, I began placing it into one of four categories: Do we keep it, merge it, pause it, or eliminate it? Growth is not always about addition. Very often, growth requires subtraction.” “Sometimes the bravest decision is to acknowledge that something was right for a previous season, but it isn't necessarily right for the next one. History is not always a reason to continue.” “We're building an integrated ecosystem that supports ambitious, impact-driven women through a clear path that strengthens five areas of growth: mindset, messaging, marketing, monetization, and momentum.” “Clarity does not mean knowing every step. It means knowing the next right step and being willing to take it. ICONIC stands for Intentionally Creating Our Next Incredible Chapters—and that's exactly what this season represents to me.” Ready to Create Clarity Around Your Next Move? If you have an idea you are ready to launch, a business or brand you want to strengthen, or a fresh direction you are ready to explore, enrollment for the next SBSC™ Collective is now open. This intentionally small, high-touch, eight-week coaching experience gives Allison the proximity to understand what you are building and help you move it forward with strategy, personalized guidance, and accountability.

Send us Fan MailWhat if AI could help you do more than write social media posts? What if it could actually help you reduce your mental load, reclaim your time, make better decisions, and become a stronger CEO?In this episode of The Good Enough Mompreneur Podcast, Angela sits down with Dawn Andrews, founder and CEO of Free Range Thinking, business strategist, executive leadership coach, speaker, and host of the She's That Founder podcast.Dawn has spent more than two decades working with high-performing leaders who are exceptional at what they do—but often exhausted by how they're doing it. Today, she helps female founders and leaders stop being the bottleneck in their businesses and create systems that allow them to grow without sacrificing themselves in the process.And increasingly, AI is becoming part of that solution.This conversation goes far beyond finding the perfect AI prompt. Angela and Dawn explore how busy mom entrepreneurs can use AI as a thought partner, strategic resource, and support system to take some of the invisible mental weight of entrepreneurship off their shoulders.What You'll LearnWhy highly capable women often become the bottleneck in their own businessesSigns you've exceeded your capacity—even when you're still getting everything doneWhy constantly expanding your capacity isn't the same as creating sustainable growthHow to shift from doing everything yourself to thinking and leading like a CEOWhy marketing is one of the first areas Dawn recommends systemizingHow motherhood may have already given you valuable CEO and leadership skillsPractical ways to use AI to reduce mental load and reclaim your timeHow to use AI as a thought partner instead of simply a content generatorWhy you don't need the "perfect prompt" to start benefiting from AIA simple way to begin building an AI marketing assistant for your businessHow to use AI without losing your voice, authenticity, or human connectionThe belief Dawn wants more women to retire: "It's just easier if I do it myself."Whether you're already using AI every day or you've been hesitant to begin, this episode will help you think differently about what AI can make possible—not so you can squeeze more work into your day, but so you can create more space for leadership, creativity, family, and the life you wanted your business to support in the first place.Connect with Dawn AndrewsGet Dawn's Free 100 AI Use Cases:https://hellodawn.live/norobotsFrom simple ways to save time today to systems that can help your business operate with less dependence on you, this is a great place to start if you're wondering how AI could actually fit into your business.Dawn Andrews / Free Range Thinking:https://dawnandrews.comConnect with Dawn on LinkedIn:Search for Dawn Andrews on LinkedIn.Listen to She's That Founder:Learn more about Dawn's podcast and her work through her website above.Connect with AngelaWant to keep the conversation going with Angela?Visit The Mom Business Coach:https://mombusinesscoach.comConnect with Angela for more conversations and resources around building your confidence, growing a sustainable business, navigating changing seasons of motherhood and entrepreneurship, and creating a business that actually works for your life.And be sure to **follow or subscribe to **The Good Enough Mompreneur Podcast so you don't miss upcoming conversations about AI, leadership, confidence, sustainable growth, and building a business without doing it all yourself.Reflection QuestionWhere are you still doing something the hard way simply because you believe you should be able to do it yourself?What could change if you allowed yourself to get support, create a system, delegate—or let AI help carry some of the load?You don't have to do it all to be enough. 

The warning sign almost nobody catches is not exhaustion. It is guilt.What if the thing burning you out is not your inbox, your clients, or your calendar? What if the call is coming from inside the house? This conversation went somewhere most burnout talks never go, and I am still thinking about it.Burnout prevention is not a luxury topic for women in digital. It is survival. So many of us are high functioning, holding it together on camera and in meetings while our shoulders creep up to our ears. Marian knows that pattern from the inside, and she shares the practical strategies that helped her build what she calls a depression proof life.Marian Mills is a mental wellness speaker, award winning voice artist, Army veteran, former social worker, and founder of Depression Proof Your Life. After burnout pushed her out of the career she loved, she built the Depression Proof Method, a practical approach to everyday mental resilience for professionals, women in leadership, and female entrepreneurs online.Key TakeawaysGuilt about resting is one of the earliest and most overlooked signs of burnout among professional women in digital.People do not burn out because they stop caring; they burn out because they care so deeply they forget to care for themselves.Awareness is the foundation of burnout prevention, from tense shoulders to stress headaches to emotional numbness.Asking for help is a muscle, and real strength is knowing when to reach out, not handling everything alone.A simple pause between meetings, calls, and tasks can reset your nervous system before stress compounds.Marian Mills said, 'People don't get burned out because they don't care. They actually burn out because they care so deeply and they end up forgetting to take care of themselves.'Marian Mills said, 'I used to think that strength meant handling it all on my own. I learned that the real strength is actually knowing when to reach out.'Timestamps00:00 Welcome and meet Marian Mills01:50 From social work to voiceover to Depression Proof Your Life05:06 The burnout patterns professional women share08:14 Rest is part of getting stronger08:35 The Depression Proof Method in practice14:04 Military discipline, recovery, and vulnerability15:16 Ask, Give, Grow and learning to ask for help23:25 Your voice, your energy, and your mental wellness26:58 Protecting your energy in emotionally demanding work32:20 Auditions, interviews, and positive self talk36:26 Early warning signs: numbness, guilt, irritability, resentment41:14 The first thing to do when burnout is on the horizon46:40 Protecting your mental health in the year ahead50:25 Power Round55:26 How to connect with Marian MillsConnect with Marian MillsWebsite: https://www.depression-prooflife.comVoiceover: https://www.marianmillsvoice.comLinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/company/depression-proof-your-lifeEmail: info@depression-proof-life.comSupport the show

Send us your feedback about the episode!What does maternity leave actually look like when you're self-employed?In this episode of Beauty Behind the Brand, Nicole opens up about preparing for motherhood while running multiple businesses—and why her version of maternity leave looked very different from the traditional year away from work.Years before having James, Nicole knew that if she wanted the freedom to step away from the treatment room and eventually become a mom, she needed to build a business that didn't depend entirely on her being physically present.She shares how she transitioned clients to other technicians, built a team she trusted, automated systems, delegated responsibilities, prepared distributors and clients ahead of time, and created other streams of revenue that could continue even when she wasn't actively working.Nicole also talks candidly about something you can't completely prepare for: how becoming a mother changes what you actually want.From thinking she'd immediately use daycare or a nanny to realizing she wanted much more time at home with James, this episode explores the reality of balancing ambition, motherhood, mom guilt, childcare and entrepreneurship.Nicole shares practical ideas for anyone preparing for maternity leave while self-employed, including:Getting yourself out of the day-to-day operations of your businessBuilding a team before you actually need oneCreating systems and automationsPreparing clients, employees and business partners in advanceBuilding online or retail income that doesn't require your physical presenceSaving ahead and understanding your monthly expensesFinding ways to reduce overhead while you're awayPlanning for childcare earlyEasing back into work instead of expecting everything to immediately return to normalGiving yourself permission to change your plans once your baby arrivesMost importantly, this episode is a reminder that you can prepare as much as possible—but you won't fully know what motherhood will look or feel like until you're living it.Build the systems. Save the money. Prepare the business.And then give yourself the freedom to figure out the rest as you go.

Five years on since the Taliban took over Afghanistan, we hear how it has changed women's lives in the country and beyond. Anita Rani speaks to BBC World Service journalist Mahjooba Nowrouzi in Kabul, and human rights activist Shaharzad Akbar. We'll also hear from 21-year-old Purvin Juma who left Afghanistan in 2021 and fled to the UK.Pregnancy, motherhood, fertility treatment: why are some female entrepreneurs keeping major life events secret? The founder Eshita Kabra joins us to discuss the culture of life editing and whether women still feel they have to choose between business success and family life. We also hear from Emmie Faust from Female Founders Rise, which supports female entrepreneurs.A chance discovery in an attic has revealed that the Booker Prize-winning novelist Iris Murdoch also had an artistic side. More than 80 of her artworks have been found in a secret room in the attic of her former home, where they had been lying for decades. They include the only self-portrait she is known to have painted, four surrealist landscapes and three sketches of female nudes. Dr Miles Leeson, who made the discovery and is Director of the Iris Murdoch Research Centre at the University of Chichester, and Professor Anne Rowe join us to discuss the importance of the art.The Hundred has brought a new audience to cricket with its fast-paced 100-ball format, star players and family-friendly atmosphere. Uniquely, women's and men's matches are played as double headers at the same venue on the same day, giving equal prominence to both competitions. With this season's finals taking place at Lord's on Sunday, Anita is joined by BBC cricket commentator Alison Mitchell to discuss the growth of The Hundred, the impact it has had on the women's game, and the teams and players to watch as the tournament reaches its climax.PRESENTER: Anita Rani PRODUCER: Melanie Abbott

In honour of Lindsey Marie's 10th year throwing the exceptional event that is Powerhouse Women, I thought I would do a replay of the episode back in 2024 where I had her on the podcast! Please enjoy!Lindsey Marie is an entrepreneur, author, top podcast host and founder of Powerhouse Women! As Lindsey moved through her own entrepreneurial journey and searched for something more, she saw the need for more honest conversations about the highs and lows of business and creating big dreams. From there, the Powerhouse Women community, annual event and podcast were born, all rooted in the belief that we're not meant to do business or life alone.In this conversation, Lindsey and I dive into how Powerhouse Women came to be, what it really takes to build a meaningful community and the personal growth required as your business continues to evolve. We also talk about vulnerability, learning to ask for support, creating more space in your life and trusting yourself when it's time to say yes, say no or let go of control.Tune in to hear more about:• Lindsey's entrepreneurial journey, the lessons she carried forward from health, fitness and network marketing. Plus, how Powerhouse Women began.• Building and cultivating a strong community through connection, vulnerability, support and allowing yourself to truly be seen.• The intentional evolution behind live events and creating spaces where entrepreneurs can find deeper relationships, accountability and next-level support.• Slowing down, creating stillness and trusting your intuition when you have too much on your plate.• Learning how to give your best full YES, say no when something isn't aligned.There are so many incredible reminders in this conversation about what can happen when we stop trying to do everything alone. Growth often requires us to be vulnerable enough to ask for help, intentional enough to protect our time and open enough to let the right people support us along the way. Send this episode to your favourite business bestie who needs a little reminder that we really are better together.Lindsey's Links:Lindsey's Instagram @lindseymarieofficialPowerhouse Women Instagram @powerhouse_women Powerhouse Women WebsiteLet's Connect!• INSPIRE + MOVE EVENTS• Instagram• Private Coaching• BENCHMARK FITNESS• Website• Facebook• TikTok

Send us Fan MailWhat if AI didn't have to mean doing more—but could actually help you do less?In this episode of The Good Enough Mompreneur Podcast, I'm talking with Ashley Gross, Founder and CEO of AI Workforce Alliance, about how mom entrepreneurs can use AI as a partner to reclaim their time, reduce mental load, and create more space for the work—and people—that matter most.And if you don't consider yourself "techy," this conversation is especially for you.Ashley wasn't always an AI expert. In fact, she shares how becoming a mom and unexpectedly facing life without maternity leave pushed her to look for a better way to work. That search eventually led her to AI and a completely different approach to building systems in both business and life.We talk about moving beyond the all-or-nothing conversation around AI and instead asking a much more useful question: Where could AI make my life easier?Ashley shares practical examples you can start thinking about right away—from triaging your inbox and organizing your calendar to automating client onboarding, reducing family mental load, planning activities with your kids, and even making those never-ending family to-do lists easier to manage.In this episode, you'll learn:✨ Why you don't need to be "technical" to start using AI✨ How to identify repetitive and mentally draining tasks that could be automated✨ Practical ways to use AI for your inbox, calendar, client onboarding, and weekly planning✨ How Ashley uses AI in motherhood and family life—not just business✨ Why AI should amplify what's already working instead of trying to fix a broken process✨ How automation can reduce the cognitive load so many moms carry✨ Why Ashley doesn't believe AI will eliminate the need for humans—and where the human experience still matters✨ How to stop chasing every new AI tool and instead build a tech stack around the problems you actually need to solveOne of my favorite reminders from this conversation is that we don't get a medal for doing everything the hard way.AI doesn't have to replace your creativity, expertise, intuition, or relationships. Used intentionally, it can simply become another tool that helps you spend less time on the repetitive work and more time being the business owner—and mom—you want to be.About Ashley GrossAshley Gross is the Founder and CEO of AI Workforce Alliance, where she helps businesses identify where and how to implement AI into their workflows so technology strengthens human capabilities rather than replacing them.Ashley is also the author of The AI Work Week and shares resources and education to help people approach AI in practical, strategic ways.Connect with Ashley:Find Ashley on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theashleygross/Visit theashleygross.com for Ashley's resources, newsletter, and more information about her work.https://www.aiworkforcealliance.com/https://www.aiworkforceacademy.io/https://www.instagram.com/theashleygross/The AI Work Week is available for pre-order and, as Ashley shares in this episode, is scheduled to be available at Barnes & Noble beginning September 9.If this episode helped you think differently about AI, share it with another mom entrepreneur who feels like she's carrying way too much.

What if success isn't about working harder—but about stopping the internal battle that's been draining your energy all along? In this thought-provoking conversation, Jennifer Urezzio sits down with TEDx speaker, success designer, and award-winning entrepreneur Bri Seeley to explore why so many high achievers unknowingly spend the majority of their day fighting themselves instead of creating the lives they desire. Together, they unpack the role of the subconscious in success, why strategy alone isn't enough, and how old beliefs formed in childhood can quietly sabotage even our biggest dreams. Through powerful metaphors, honest stories, and practical wisdom, Jennifer and Bri discuss how awareness, repetition, self-compassion, and conscious choice create lasting transformation.

What if growing your business didn't require posting every day, constantly checking your DMs or chasing the algorithm?In this episode, Holly sits down with Ashley Brock, founder of Paid Ads Academy and an eight-figure business owner who has managed more than $200 million in advertising spend. Ashley shares how entrepreneurs can use paid advertising to become more findable—so the right people discover their businesses without relying entirely on organic social media.Ashley breaks down why paid ads can be an anti-social, life-first growth strategy that continues working while you spend time with your family, serve your clients or step away from your phone. She also explains why successful advertising is about much more than Facebook and Instagram, how to choose the right platforms and what needs to be in place before you start investing.00:00:00 — Why paid ads can be an anti-social, life-first growth strategy00:01:30 — What building a life-first business means to Ashley00:03:00 — Using stronger boundaries to separate work, family and phone time00:04:30 — Leaving a six-figure corporate job while pregnant00:06:00 — Growing a business without relying on daily social media activity00:07:30 — How advertising helps customers find you across multiple platforms00:09:00 — Why paid advertising goes far beyond Facebook and Instagram00:10:30 — Choosing platforms based on customer behavior and business goals00:12:00 — Combining search ads, social ads, prospecting and retargeting00:13:30 — How to think about ad budgets and customer lifetime value00:15:00 — Why learning ads feels overwhelming at first—and how it becomes easier00:18:00 — Using AI to audit your calendar and reclaim valuable time00:19:30 — What must be proven before you invest in advertising00:21:00 — How AI can connect advertising and sales data for faster decisions00:24:00 — The support, delegation and weekly structure behind Ashley's business00:27:00 — Letting go of DMs, sales calls and founder-only responsibilities00:28:30 — The testimonial ad Ashley recommends creating firstCONNECT WITH ASHLEY:Website | https://www.paidadscoaching.com/Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/ads.with.ashley/TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@ads.with.ashleyYouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@ads.with.ashleyLinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleyjettonbrock/Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/WinWithPaidAds/

Send us Fan MailWhat does it really take to build a successful product-based business with family—and grow it without losing sight of why you started?In this episode of The Good Enough Mompreneur Podcast, I'm joined by Sara and Vinnie Cann, the mother-daughter co-founders of Birdie's Batch, a family-run food business built around locally sourced ingredients, seasonal products, family recipes, and a whole lot of heart.Sara and Vinnie started Birdie's Batch in 2020 after Sara was laid off from her career in the restaurant industry. What began as an opportunity to sell homemade products at local farmers markets grew into a loyal community, an online business, award-winning marmalades, and national recognition—including a feature in The New York Times that increased their sales by 264%.But what I especially loved about this conversation is that their story isn't simply about growing a business. It's about figuring out what kind of business—and life—you actually want to build.We talk about working together as mother and daughter, listening to your customers, overcoming the challenges of shipping food products, using storytelling to differentiate your brand, navigating motherhood while running a business, and why sustainable growth doesn't always mean doing more.Sara also opens up about how a major health challenge changed her relationship with work and helped her redefine success. Instead of continuing to push toward bigger numbers and a seven-day workweek, she began creating a business model that better supported her health, motherhood, and life.In this episode, we talk about:✨ Turning family recipes into a product-based business✨ Starting a food business from home without a huge investment✨ Building a loyal customer base through farmers markets✨ Listening to your customers to discover new products and opportunities✨ Making a mother-daughter business partnership work✨ Treating failures as data instead of reasons to quit✨ Building around your actual capacity as a mom and entrepreneur✨ Overcoming shipping and fulfillment challenges✨ What happened when The New York Times featured Birdie's Batch✨ Using storytelling and community to build customer loyalty✨ Why business growth doesn't always mean doing more✨ Redefining success and creating a more sustainable business✨ Starting before you have the perfect planOne of my favorite reminders from this conversation is that growth doesn't necessarily mean doing more. Sometimes growth means figuring out what's already working, getting better at it, and letting go of what no longer supports the business or life you're trying to create.If you're a mom entrepreneur building a product-based business—or you've been sitting on an idea because you don't have everything figured out yet—I think you'll walk away from this conversation feeling encouraged to start where you are, stay flexible, and build success on your own terms.CONNECT WITH SARA, VINNIE & BIRDIE'S BATCHWebsite: https://birdiesbatch.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/birdiesbatch/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/birdiesbatch/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@birdiesbatchLinkedIn – Sara Cann: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sara-cann-b785a21a/KEEP THE CONVERSATION GOING WITH ANGELAVisit https://mombusinesscoach.com for more episodes, resources, and ways to work with me as you build a business that supports your goals, your family, and the season of life you're actually in.REFLECTION QUESTIONWhere in your business are you assuming growth means doing more—and what might change if you focused instead on doing what already works better?If this episode encouraged you, follow The Good Enough Mompreneur Podcast, share it with another mom entrepreneur, and leave a rating or review.

Just landed back on the Gold Coast from Singapore and this one poured out of me Every single client I met in person this month said the same thing.They love how clearly I explain concepts, and it's because I teach in shapes. Arrows, circles, little messy iPad scribbles.But then something hit me on the flight over. I've been teaching the wrong shape for 18 months. The funnel drains and runs out. What I actually teach spins and never stops.Once you see the shape your work really wants to live in, everything clicks so much faster. Have you ever thought about yours?Come find your shape with me
