I Shut Down My 75k Facebook Group: What I'm Doing Instead
The Boss Mom Podcast
Since 2015, we have built our Facebook group into a thriving 75k member community. This year, I decided to shut it down. Walking away from something that’s “doing well” is scary, but if it’s not lighting us up, it’s the right thing to do. The Facebook group was working - even growing, but the truth is: I had started to resent it. I didn’t fall out of love with building community. I fell out of love with doing it on someone else’s terms. So, the BossMom+ app was born! We aren’t just building a village, we’re building a city where moms can grow their...

The Boss Mom Podcast
Today’s rules of marketing force us in one direction: be everywhere, all the time, non-stop. It’s all about more content, more entertainment, and of course - more virality. Here’s the problem for moms: this isn’t a sustainable version of marketing. It’s exhausting, guilt-inducing and unrealistic. Our life requirements don’t align with being online all the time, and we shouldn’t have to play by those rules to succeed. No matter what: our children will always be the dominant priority in our lives. Why not set up our business with this in mind, instead of forcing...

How to Be Cool with Changing Direction w/Marki Lemons Ryhal
The Boss Mom Podcast
As entrepreneurs, there’s a ton of pressure to commit to one thing and stick with it, no matter what. Even though we’re constantly evolving, switching things up makes us think we’re wishy-washy, indecisive and uncommitted. Does that mean we have to sell and say the same thing forever, even when it’s no longer in alignment with us? Life's too short to stick with something that's not lighting us up just because we're scared of looking flaky. We shouldn’t be afraid of letting our businesses evolve like we do. How do we make a big change without feeling guilty? How do we...

info_outlineSo many women have juicy and purposeful potential inside them, but because they’re too depleted to see the possibilities, it never sees the light of day.
We tell ourselves that being moms is what’s holding us back. The truth is: not tapping into our potential has nothing to do with our kids, and everything to do with our own emotions.
When we operate from an agitated nervous system, urgency, overwhelm and exhaustion become the norm. When we step out of our spinning minds and shift into presence, the awesome things we’re pushing hard to have will just flow to us.
That way, we’ll never have to choose between the greatest gift in life, and our purpose and contribution to the world.
How do we repair our nervous systems so we can start operating from a place of calm and wholeness? Can we unearth our purpose by doing less?
In this episode, I’m joined by top ranked podcast host, 8 figure spiritual and business coach, and author of the upcoming book “Abundant Ever After”, Cathy Heller. She shares how moms can design lives filled with purpose, peace and presence.
When your nervous system is agitated, you will keep making lists, feeling depleted and doing everything for everyone. When you repair it, you can find peace, calm and start feeling a sense of wholeness. -Cathy Heller
