We're celebrating a world where the way mothers build businesses isn't a compromise. It's the competitive advantage. Story-led interviews with working moms and founders who turn the Motherhood Advantage into sustainable, service‑based businesses - redefining career success, visibility without performing, and growth through quiet, non-performative marketing. We talk about building differently. Your Way Works (Even if it doesn’t look like everyone else’s).

How to Break the Cycle of Self-Criticism

Struggling to stay consistent with your new habits and being disciplined in your work? You're not alone!

Let's talk about the importance of self-compassion and tiny steps towards change and how to be kinder to yourself when trying to change (and why your kids need to see it!)

I often explore my own personal challenges through the podcast and this week I reflect on how me trying to change my habbits and patterns affects me, how I handle setbacks and how I improve going forward.

In this episode:

I talk about the importance of discipline and the challenges of forming new habits, particularly in the context of working from home.

I reflect on the the impact of generational patterns on behavior and the significance of role modeling for our children.

I talk about why mindfulness and self-compassion are so important when attempting to change habits, advocating for small, manageable goals to foster sustainable change.
