    I’m here to tell you that it doesn't have to be that way! As a mom of FOUR BOYS, I’ve had to do my fair share of work to combat the chaos to find a rhythm of life that’s enjoyable and helps me to thrive. I want to share with you some key components to my strategy that I know are going to you help you nail down a rhythm that works for you!

  • Kristina Braly is a mom of two, a board-certified anesthesiologist and a digital content creator for 13+ years. She is also the CEO of Cloud9 Scrubs, a modern luxury performance brand, and the founder of AEMBR, a newly launched candle and home fragrance brand with products selling out in 90 seconds!

    But being a multi-passionate individual, like Kristina, is no walk in the park, especially for moms. It’s easy to feel pulled in so many directions, and if we’re not careful, it’s likely that burnout will follow close behind.

    In our conversation, Kristina and I chat about what it means to be a multi-passionate entrepreneur, how to invest in the things that light you on fire, and specifically how to do that as a mom without succumbing to burnout and overwhelm.

  • It can be difficult to break into an existing industry, especially when you’re doing it differently! My guest is someone who decided to pursue what she loved, but with her own creative and “disruptive” spin. She wasn’t interested in choosing between her passion and her family, so she took that path that had it all!

    Kelly Stumpe is the founder and creator of The Car Mom, where she uses her extensive knowledge and resources from her career in the automotive industry to empower first-time car buyers, women, and families to make the most informed decision while car shopping.

    In our conversation, Kelly shares all about how she grew The Car Mom after leaving her job in sales, the mission that fuels her, and exactly how she was able to pull it off while also being present as a mom. We also spend some extra time engaging in a bit of car talk, so if you’re interested in hearing from the expert, keep listening!

  • I’m anxious to share my thoughts on a reel I recently posted that was met with some controversy about why I don’t relate to women who complain about motherhood. Which got me thinking about how relatable content isn’t always good for us!

    As moms, we often find ourselves mindlessly scrolling through social media or filling our minds with videos that don’t really challenge us to grow as human beings. In the name of relatability, moms take to the internet to commiserate about the real challenges and hardships they’re facing, but without any constructive goal in mind. The result? A severe increase in mental depression, anxiety, and unhealthy habits, which are not helping us in motherhood.


    In this episode, I talk about
..

    A time in my life when I realized I had given in to negativity.Why media can be so toxic.The dangers of relatable content.The Media Pyramid.Toxic positivity and unrelenting negativity.My solutions for being more intentional with what I put out into the world.
