Not That Kind of CEO - Business for Mompreneurs

Some days I sit down to work and I feel like an utter failure before I've even started. Not because anything went wrong. Just because I know enough now to see exactly how much I still can't do. And if you're a mompreneur trying to grow a business while keeping the rest of your life from falling apart, I think you know that feeling too. This episode went somewhere I didn't plan. And somewhere in th...

You keep disappearing online and you tell yourself it's because life got in the way. A fall, a crazy week, the kids. And sometimes that's true. But if I'm being honest with you, and with myself? That's not what's really happening. I've spent two years stopping and starting with my content. Two years of sitting down, freezing up, and walking away. And I kept telling myself I just didn't know what t...

You read one comment online and suddenly it's pinned to your shirt for the rest of the day. Every quiet moment, there it is again. I've been there. And what I found out is that this has very little to do with how strong you are mentally and everything to do with how depleted you already were before you even opened your phone. Sleep deprived, chronically overstimulated, running on a mental load tha...

If you're an overwhelmed mompreneur, there's a good chance the way you're talking to yourself is making everything harder, and you don't even know it yet. I'm not talking about toxic positivity or journaling prompts. I'm talking about two specific words that are running your whole relationship with your business, your to-do list, and whether you actually take action or just spin. I found the first...

You bought the course. Again. Maybe you didn't even open it. And now there's that voice, again. The one calling you lazy, unmotivated, a bad entrepreneur who just can't follow through. I've been there. And I want you to hear this: it's not about you not having enough time, and it's not about the course being bad. There's something else going on, and as an overwhelmed mompreneur trying to hold ever...

You know what you need to do. You've known for a while. But somehow you're still sitting on that post, that offer, that thing you've been tweaking forever; because it's not quite there yet. If you're an overwhelmed mompreneur who keeps measuring everything against brands that have full teams and years on you, this episode is going to feel uncomfortably familiar. I'm talking about the mistake I see...

You know that feeling where you've been working all day, you're exhausted, the kids have had maybe 30% of you, and you still have nothing to show for it? Not behind on one thing. Behind on everything. Again. In this episode I'm getting into the real reason so many mompreneurs are stuck in that loop. And it's not your schedule, your systems, or your kids. It's something you've been treating as comp...

You're not imagining it; you're feeling exhausted, overstimulated, and running on empty, and you've somehow convinced yourself that's just life right now. Maybe it's the world. Maybe it's the kids. Maybe it's the season you're in. But what if you're also doing things every single day that are sneakily draining you, things that feel completely harmless? In this episode, I'm getting honest about som...

You’re doing everything you’re supposed to do, and somehow you’re still exhausted, resentful, and wondering how long you can keep this up. In this episode, I’m sitting down with Jenn Fast to talk about the side of productivity most mompreneurs never get to see. The support systems, the protected time, and the boundaries that exist in the background at the highest levels. We talk about what happens...

You’re exhausted, but not the kind of tired that sleep fixes. You’re an overwhelmed mompreneur sitting down to work, feeling resistance in your body, and wondering why motivation and consistency feel so hard lately. January pressure, new goals, new plans, new habits, it all sounds good on paper. But when you’re balancing motherhood and entrepreneurship, that push to do more can lead to mompreneur...

Some people plan their way into entrepreneurship. Others follow a curiosity that makes no sense at first, until suddenly it becomes the thing. In this episode, I’m talking to Sarika, who walked away from a respected corporate role and followed an unexpected pull toward Japanese sake. What started as an interest turned into a business, awards, and a completely different way of defining success. Not...

If you’ve ever thought, “Why can’t I keep my house tidy?” while stepping over toys for the hundredth time, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I sit down with my friend Heather Clark, founder of Declutter for Change. We start with the stuff. The toys. The cupboards you avoid. The mess that never seems to stay gone. But very quickly, we get to what’s actually underneath it. We talk about...

Reflecting on your business goals can feel heavy, especially at the end of the year. I see so many women look back at what they planned, what they didn’t finish, and what didn’t work, and suddenly reflection turns into self-criticism. In this episode of Not That Kind of CEO , I talk about how to reflect on your business goals in a way that actually creates clarity, momentum, and peace, instead of...

If Christmas leaves you exhausted, even after doing things you genuinely enjoy, this episode is for you. For a long time, I thought I was relaxing by staying busy. Cooking, organizing, planning. All things that look productive, nurturing, and completely normal. But I started to notice that the things I called “relaxing” were often the same things that left me wired, snappy, and completely depleted...

Planning your next year sounds like a good idea… until you try to do it in December. In this episode, I talk about why planning while exhausted, overstimulated, and in survival mode often leads to plans that don’t stick, especially for mompreneurs. We explore what’s really happening when clarity feels out of reach, why so many next-year plans quietly fall apart, and how timing plays a bigger role...

This episode is for every mompreneur who hits December and suddenly feels like she is three steps behind, exhausted, and somehow supposed to turn into a productivity wizard while the kids are decorating cookies in the background. Everywhere online people are screaming about “finishing strong,” planning for 2026, or “what you should already have in place.” It's no wonder your system feels fried. Th...

If you’re a mompreneur, chances are big you’re constantly feeling ten steps behind. You try the new planner, the new course, the new tool, hoping this will finally make you consistent in what you do. And when it doesn’t, you immediately blame yourself. You start thinking you’re just not good at this. You feel guilty. You feel like a bad mom, a bad entrepreneur, a woman who “should” have this figur...

If you’re an overwhelmed mompreneur who keeps procrastinating on important tasks, this episode will hit close to home. You sit down to work, fully intending to move forward, and somehow end up avoiding the one thing that actually matters. Procrastination isn’t laziness, and it’s not a discipline problem. For many mom entrepreneurs, it’s a protective response that shows up when you’re stretched thi...

I’ve been thinking a lot about how nature moves through the seasons… and how we, as entrepreneurs, rarely give ourselves permission to do the same. In this episode, I’m unpacking the idea of winter energy. That natural pull to rest, reflect, and restore before stepping into a new year. We’ll talk about what it looks like to stop chasing the next big goal, how to bring more calm into Q4, and how to...

You know that voice that whispers, “I’ll start when I’m ready” ? Yeah, she’s a liar. Waiting to feel ready is one of the biggest reasons burned out mompreneurs stay stuck in their business. If you’re an overwhelmed mompreneur who keeps delaying launches, offers, price increases, or visibility because you don’t feel confident yet, this episode breaks down why that approach backfires. In this episod...

What if the reason you feel behind… is because you’re doing it right ? In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what real, lasting change actually looks like. Especially when you’re building a business while juggling motherhood, messy systems, and the reality of, you know, only having 3 kid-free hours a day. We’re talking about why so many mompreneurs feel like failures when they’re actual...
