Ep. 50 - Forget Perfect, Just Get it Done! Our CEO Layla Lisiewski on Raising a Family & Building a Business
Moms, there is no one better to kick off Season 2 of MomCast than the CEO of The Local Moms Network Layla Lisiewski! When Layla became a mom, she couldn’t find the mom community she craved so she built one. Ten years later, her company is comprised of 100+ moms in suburbs across 30 states, each bringing moms the best resources and relatable content. Layla dreamt of “giving moms the gift of time” and she does.Layla is a mom of 4 kids and exudes calm and confidence-her signature blend! As a more seasoned mother (her oldest is now a teenager) her process has shifted some, while her values remain front and center.We learned so much about Layla’s approach to parenting and the foundation she’s laying for her family.Here are just some of her incredible nuggets that you’ll want to duplicate:* Tossing out perfection and focusing instead of doing something completely* Outsourcing a pain point: why hiring help for dinner alleviated so much stress* Navigating the teen years and prioritizing listening over fixing* Celebrating other adults who nurture and inspire our kids. Layla shares an encounter with her lacrosse coach who changed her trajectory.* Finding magic in the car rides and their unexpected bonding opportunityFind us at www.thelocalmomsnetwork.comIG: @thelocalmomsnetworkEmail: demetra@thelocalmomsnetwork.com
