2: Why Strategy Feels Hard (And How to Make it Simple)
In this episode, I’m getting honest about why so much traditional business advice feels impossible to follow when juggling school pickups, practices, and the mental load of running a household.
I’ve been there—feeling overwhelmed by the endless to-do list and wondering why “simple systems” feel so complicated in real mom life. The problem isn’t you; it is trying to follow systems that weren’t built for the complexity of being a mom.
Today, I’m sharing three things that changed how I approach strategy—and how I help other moms build thriving businesses without sacrificing what matters most. If you’re ready to stop drowning in advice that doesn’t fit your life and start creating a business strategy that works with your family’s rhythm, this episode is for you.
