    279: Three Practical Ways To Be A Happier Mom While Growing A Business

    Send us a text Want a calmer home and a lighter heart without adding more to your plate? Camille gets candid about what actually moves the needle for moms who feel stretched thin: taking a real inventory of time, turning down comparison, and writing honest truths that challenge fear. This is a practical, compassionate guide to feeling happier while you raise kids and keep your dreams alive. We start with time, because time tells the truth. Camille shows how to stack joy on chores you already do—podcasts while cooking, music during cleanup, a favorite show in one ear while you manage the dinner rush—so your day feeds you back. She shares the power of a personal joy list and explains why sleep and exercise act like washing machines for your mind, restoring patience and energy when both feel scarce. Bath time becomes a flexible pocket for reading aloud, quick tidying, or quiet listening that lifts your mood without leaving the room. Then we get honest about noise. Social feeds often turn into a loop of comparison that drains confidence and warps perspective. Camille walks through a simple nightly ritual—screens off, counters cleared, candle lit, a timer for family wind-down—that protects your recharge window and recenters gratitude. Finally, she lays out a writing practice to list strengths and name fears on paper, then ask: what else is true? That shift turns guilt into grounded action and models repair for your kids when tempers fray. If you’re craving more flexibility, Camille also shares a path to build a home-based career as a virtual assistant, setting your own schedule and serving clients with skills you already have. Ready to feel more like yourself again? Press play, save your favorite tip, and share the one ritual you’ll try tonight.

    274: Find Your Story, Grow Your Brand with Melissa Hughes

    Send us a text A seven-second “mom fail” video, 22 million views, and a brand-new path. Our conversation with Melissa Hughes, founder of Rise Social Media Agency, is a candid look at how authentic storytelling can turn a personal turning point into a clear, magnetic brand. Melissa opens up about a valley season that tested her identity, the unexpected viral clip that launched her into entrepreneurship, and the mindset shifts that helped her lead with purpose while raising confident kids. We dig into why story beats slogans every time. Melissa breaks down psychographics—the beliefs, emotions, and inner shifts behind your milestones—and shows how they create resonance your audience can feel. You’ll hear a powerful case study of a client who moved beyond a generic “unstoppable” message by sharing a pivotal mental health battle, unlocking relevance, booking stages, and a mission that finally made sense. If you’ve ever wondered how to clarify your message, this is the blueprint: define the belief you held, the moment that changed it, and the mission that followed. We also get tactical. Melissa shares her content cadence, how to capture working processes with simple screen recordings, and why hiring for complementary strengths transforms your capacity. At home, she uses clear systems—the “five B’s” routine—to build independence and peace, proving that delegation isn’t lazy parenting; it’s leadership. And we reframe imposter syndrome as a signal you’re expanding into work that fits who you really are when it’s rooted in authenticity. If you’re a mom, creator, or founder ready to evolve without burning out, you’ll walk away with practical steps to focus your offer, say no with confidence, and build a brand that grows because it’s true. Listen, share with a friend who needs the nudge, and leave a quick review to tell us the defining moment shaping your message today.
