    105. The Power of Momentum: Behind the Mic and Beyond

    Send a text If you feel like you know what to do in your business… but you still feel stuck, this episode is for you. You’re not behind. You’re not lazy. And you’re definitely not broken. You’re just carrying a lot. In this episode, we’re talking about the kind of momentum that doesn’t require hustle, 5am wake-ups, or grinding yourself into burnout. We’re talking about quiet, sustainable momentum — the kind that cuts through overwhelm and helps you move forward in part-time hours. Jenny breaks down why motivation is unreliable (especially in motherhood), why momentum builds confidence faster than clarity ever will, and how podcasting can become your built-in momentum machine. If you’ve been overthinking, overplanning, or waiting for the “right time,” this is your reminder that the next small step matters more than the perfect plan. In this episode, we cover: Why momentum matters more than motivation in seasons of motherhoodThe real reason most podcasters stall out (hint: it’s not strategy)What momentum actually looks like behind the micWhy confidence follows action — not the other way aroundHow momentum spills into every area of your business and life4 simple ways to create momentum without overwhelmThe one question you should ask yourself this weekYour Next Step Instead of asking, “How do I fix everything?” ask:  👉 What is the next small step I can take?  👉 What can I let go of to protect it?

    104. From Inconsistent to Intentional: Your 20-Hour Visibility Plan

    Send a text If you’ve ever told yourself, “I just need to be more consistent,” and immediately felt behind, overwhelmed, or annoyed… this episode is your permission slip to stop blaming yourself. In this conversation, I’m breaking down why visibility advice was never designed for a 20-hour workweek — and why you’re not inconsistent, you’re just overextended. We’re shifting from hustle-based visibility to intentional visibility. Instead of showing up everywhere, posting daily, and chasing trends, I’ll walk you through a simple 5-step framework that helps you build steady, sustainable visibility that actually fits your life as a mom entrepreneur. Because when visibility supports your capacity (instead of draining it), you stop disappearing and start converting with clarity. In this episode, we cover: Why “just be more consistent” is terrible advice for busy momsThe real reason you keep ghosting your visibilityThe difference between inconsistent visibility and intentional visibilityThe 20-Hour Visibility Framework (5 simple steps)How to choose your anchor platform (and why social media isn’t the foundation)How to create a visibility rhythm you can actually maintainWhy your content needs one clear goalA lightweight repurposing plan to get more mileage from your ideasThe importance of protecting your visibility time with boundaries If visibility has felt heavy, scattered, or stressful, this episode will help you zoom out and simplify. Because this isn’t a personal failure — it’s a systems issue. And systems can be simplified.

It’ll help you create a visibility and growth plan that actually fits your real life as a mom. 👉 Grab it here: momsmakemoneycollective.com/blueprint Let’s stop asking “How do I show up more?” And start asking, “How do I show up on purpose?” The MOMentum Hub is a free community for mom entrepreneurs who want clarity, consistency, and momentum without burnout.

    103. The Rock, Pebble, and Sand Jar: Prioritizing What Truly Moves the Needle

    Send a text If your business feels full but somehow not productive, this episode will feel like a lightbulb moment. In today’s conversation, Jenny breaks down the classic rocks, pebbles, and sand jar analogy and shows how it perfectly explains why so many mom entrepreneurs end their days exhausted… yet unsure what actually moved the needle. Spoiler: it’s not because you’re doing it wrong — it’s because the wrong things are taking up your jar. You’ll learn how to intentionally prioritize the work that actually grows your business (even in a limited 20-hour workweek), why busywork loves to disguise itself as productivity, and how protecting just a few key priorities can keep your momentum even during seasons of limited childcare, low capacity, or chaos. This episode is a permission slip to stop doing more and start putting the right things first. In this episode, we cover: What the rocks, pebbles, and sand represent in your businessWhy inbox tasks and “quick wins” quietly steal your timeHow to identify your true needle-moving priorities each weekA real-life example of using this framework during limited childcareHow focusing on fewer priorities can protect momentum and revenueThe MOMentum Hub is a free community for mom entrepreneurs who want clarity, consistency, and momentum without burnout.

    101. Visibility Without Burnout: The Real Reason You’re Stuck (and How to Fix It)

    Send a text What if the reason your visibility isn’t working has nothing to do with consistency… and everything to do with burnout? In this episode of Moms Make Money, we’re breaking down one of the biggest myths in online business: that more visibility always equals more momentum. If you’re a mom entrepreneur who’s been told to post more, show up everywhere, and stay “consistent at all costs” but you’re exhausted and not seeing results, this episode is for you. You’ll learn why visibility often feels draining, why “doing all the things” isn’t moving the needle, and how unsustainable visibility is actually the thing holding you back. Most importantly, we’ll talk about what sustainable visibility really looks like for moms building businesses in part-time hours. Inside this episode, we cover: Why visibility doesn’t fail because of inconsistency but because it lacks intentionThe real reason posting feels heavy and leads to burnoutHow random visibility creates noise instead of momentumThe three elements of sustainable visibility that actually support your lifeWhat visibility can look like when it’s simple, strategic, and aligned with your seasonThis is your permission slip to stop hustling for attention and start building visibility that works with your life — not against it. If this episode hits home, take a moment to ask yourself:  Where am I being visible without intention and what would happen if I simplified instead of added more?
