Today, I brought on Rebecca Schor from Mama in Biz, and we're talking about some of the shifts and changes that come when becoming a mom who already has a business and is trying to fit motherhood and business together. If you're a first time mom, expecting mom, or a mom to just one little who's trying to figure out how to make business work with your new role as a mom, then this episode is for you.
Rebecca shares some fundamental reminders about business productivity and motherhood that we often hear, but we don't actually implement. And so this is your encouragement to really do and implement the things we're talking about here today, because I do believe you'll see big results in your life and business when you do.

Maybe you are a stay-at-home mom, and you want to start a business. Maybe it relates to the career you had prior to motherhood, or maybe it’s a completely new idea. Whatever it is, you want to create something new.
Maybe it’s to contribute financially to your family, maybe it’s because you want something that’s “just yours” and the adventure of business sounds fun/exciting to you, or maybe it’s for so many reasons that you can’t even pinpoint them exactly, you just know you’re feeling called to this, passionate about this, and you have capacity to add something else to your plate.
If that’s you, this episode is for you. I’m sharing four pieces of advice I’d give the stay-at-home mom who wants to start a part-time business.

Have you considered intentionally working less in your business or career to prioritize your motherhood? Or maybe you desire to take a career pause from your paid work to focus your time and energy on family life?
These decisions can be tough ones to make, especially when it can feel like the world is telling us that we should do it all and just keep pushing harder and harder. If you're craving slowing down, softness, maybe you feel a little over girl bossing right now, or maybe you've decided you don't want a seat in the C-suite right now, but you do still consider yourself an ambitious woman, this episode is for you.
I’m talking to Neha Ruch, creator of Mother Untitled about what it can look like to take a career pause or downshift your work or business. Pausing doesn't mean you're falling behind. It just means you know your priorities for the season and you're pursuing those priorities. So, in this episode, we're really talking about what that can look like and how we can start redefining how to do a pause.
Neha shares about:
Why the term stay-at-home mom needs a rebrand The reality of what it looks like to be a stay-at-home mom in 2024How many American women are desiring career pauses and downshifts (and what we can do to pursue one)What a pause or downshift even is (if those terms feel new to you)What you can do to enjoy a career pauseHow you can use a pause to develop your sense of identity aside from your workPlus, she also talks about how you can ultimately leverage time away from the traditional workforce to network, explore, and ultimately return stronger than ever. As a mom of little kids, I felt just so honored to get to have Neha on the podcast, and I hope that you love this conversation as much as I did.

Last week, I shared all about how I just redesigned my whole Showit website from scratch after years of having the same design. And today? I'm sharing six things I learned from designing for myself that you can apply to your own business, whether you're customizing a website template (like one of the ones in my template shop!), or if you're simply updating your current website every now and then.
My hope is that tips will help you even as a non-designer. These lessons are fresh because I literally just launched as I'm recording this (the site went live yesterday as the time I recorded this). These are things that I learned in real time that you can apply to your business. Let’s dive in!

Today, I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look into a very typical work week for me as a mom, as a business owner who works from home, and as a woman in the new baby and toddler phase of parenting. When I asked you guys what you want more of on the podcast, these kinds of episodes are always a favorite. It was actually one of the first 10 episodes of The Breakthrough Brand Podcast (which is fun to think about – because life was so different back then!).
I hope you enjoy this behind the scenes (from what I do on my full work days to what I’m doing in “mom mode”. Personally, I love when people pull back the curtain and just really share the raw and real of what this looks like to run their business. And so that is truly what this is. You'll hear me check in every morning to say what I have planned for that day and then check in the evening as well to let you know how the day actually went.

Today, I’m bringing on Stephanie King from My Essential Birth to the podcast. Stephanie has been instrumental in my pregnancy and birth journey with both of my boys. I discovered her podcast early in my first pregnancy and have been a dedicated listener ever since. Her content, courses, and guidance have been invaluable. It's amazing how our paths crossed through social media, and we've since collaborated in a number of ways.
Today, I'm excited to dive into a topic she doesn't often discuss: her business smarts and the journey behind My Essential Birth podcast. We’re talking about how she grew her business, what she would do differently, and what she recommends for new business owners looking to start an online course business and podcast!
And spoiler alert - Stephanie’s podcast now has over 2.3 million downloads and 692 reviews! She’s served over 1500+ students in her online course, so she’s definitely an expert in the field (and it’s especially fun having her talk about the B2C world, since it’s often different from other podcast advice out there (but still highly relevant and worth considering for your own business). Welcome, Stephanie!

Most podcasters don't earn as much as they could from their show. In fact, many smaller podcasts don't make any money at all, which is one reason why so many podcasters quit. Today, I’m talking about how making money from podcasting goes beyond just getting sponsors for ads. For smaller podcasts with less than a thousand downloads per episode, you likely won’t make enough on sponsorships for running a show to be “worth it” which is one of the reasons so many podcasters quit.
In this episode, I’m sharing THREE ways to make money through your podcast but there are actually TEN ways I make money through my show that I’ll discuss in detail in Podcast Success Blueprint. If you want to turn your podcast into an asset for your business (that makes you money!), I’d love for you to join me inside!

In this episode, I’m going to share a behind-the-scenes look at how I planned this leave: from what I had to do to prepare my business for me to be gone, what I’d do differently, what I thought worked well, and what I did do differently from my last leave.If you want more maternity leave episodes, tune into these next:

Today on the podcast, we are talking all about ConvertKit's rebrand to Kit. In case you missed their big announcement of this, don’t worry! I’m sharing all about it today: from my thoughts on the name, what it looks like to rebrand a company of this size, domain name things, and even diving into the last time ConvertKit rebranded and how it relates to all of this.
I have a spicy opinion on it all that I'm excited to talk about it from the perspective of a brand designer and business owner (and someone who has been a ConvertKit user for many, many years now, loves the company, and supports them wholeheartedly). Let’s dive in!
