There’s something every mom needs, but no one is talking about it. It’s not more sleep (though that would be nice). It’s not better time management. It’s validation. Motherhood shifts everything.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re procrastinating, self-sabotaging, or just spinning your wheels, this episode will help you understand why—and what you can do about it. What You’ll Learn in...

info_outlineFor moms juggling businesses and family, the pressure to "do it all" doesn’t just feel overwhelming—it feels impossible. The push to work faster, harder, and longer leads to exhaustion, frustration, and a sense of failure when life doesn’t go according to plan.
For years, we’ve been sold the idea that hustle = success. But the more we embrace the hustle culture, the more we sacrifice our health, relationships, and happiness. There’s a better way to build your dream business, one that doesn’t leave you feeling drained.
How would your life and business look if you didn’t have to do everything all at once? What if slowing down and focusing on fewer things actually made you feel happier and more successful?
In this episode, I welcome back published author, keynote & TEDx speaker Jadah Sellner, who shares her “anti-hustle” approach to growing a business that nourishes your life instead of depleting it. If you've been feeling the pressure to juggle every role at lightning speed, this episode is your invitation to pause.
Things You’ll Learn In This Episode
- Why hustling isn’t the only path to success
Hustle culture tells us to go faster, do more, and never stop. But what if slowing down actually helped you achieve more?
- How to build a business that fits your life
You can create a business that makes you happy and doesn’t leave you feeling tired all the time. How can you enjoy your work without feeling overwhelmed?
- Why saying "no" is important
Not everything is worth your time. Learning to say "no" helps you focus on what really matters. What can you let go of to make more room for what’s important?
