Francheska Stone is a former litigation paralegal turned creator, and host of 9 to 5 Mom with a Pod, the media platform for everyday women and moms, serving unfiltered, diary-level conversations.
After spending over a decade in litigation, Francheska did everything “right” on paper, rising as a trusted paralegal while building stability for her family. But privately, she felt herself disappearing inside a career that no longer fit her life as a mom. Realizing she was building a life that looked good but felt misaligned, she made the decision to pivot.
Through the 9 to 5 Mom with a Pod podcast, she has built a community designed to disrupt the 'perfect mom' narrative and explores what it really looks like to pivot a career and reclaim an identity while raising a family.
But inspiration without action is just noise. That’s why she leads a high-value weekly newsletter that goes deeper than the episodes. It serves as the exclusive home for her behind-the-scenes video diaries where she hands over the exact hacks and professional strategies she uses to manage her everyday “life systems”.
Francheska has been featured in Yahoo! Life, Success Magazine, Forbes, The Bump, and Manychat, and has spoken at Podfest, Vidfest, and on multiple national podcasts and media platforms. 9 to 5 Mom with a Pod maintains a 5.0-star rating on Apple Podcasts.

Ep. 28: Quiet Quitting or Healthy Boundaries? The Truth Moms Won’t Say Out Loud (ft. Alli Kushner)
Working motherhood comes with blurred lines, burnout, and a constant tug‑of‑war between “doing it all” and doing what actually keeps you sane. In this episode, Fran sits down with Alli Kushner, founder of BeeKyn — the playdate app for parents launching in 2025, to unpack the debate around quiet quitting vs. healthy boundaries, why role‑creep at work drains your family life, and how BeeKyn helps parents actually meet up—without the awkward texting spiral.Alli also shares a candid story about postpartum mental health and the spectrum of PMADs, offering language, validation, and hope for anyone navigating the after‑children version of themselves.🔗 Join the BeeKyn waitlist: https://beekyn.co/
