    131. The CEO Reset I Do Every August Before Fall Begins

    Send us Fan Mail The moms who don't reset in August are the ones who hit October completely burnt out, wondering why their business is running them instead of the other way around. I’m sharing the story of last year when I watched my  son walk into kindergarten for the very first time and spent the whole moment mentally problem-solving business issues. I was there, but I wasn't really there. That day I made a promise: never again. And the CEO Reset was born. In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact four-part reset I run every single August — one you can knock out in a single CEO date with your notebook and your favorite beverage: The Reflection Audit — the four honest questions that show you what to keep, cut, and hand offThe Offer Clarity Check — because offers drift, and five things on your website isn't a strategyThe Capacity Calendar — mapping the hours you actually have this fall, not the ones you wish you hadThe Fall Focus Word — a little woo, wildly groundingYou're not behind. You're a mom running a real business with limited hours and a whole lot of heart and you deserve a strategy that fits your actual life. Ready to do the reset with support? The CEO Mom Fall Reset kicks off the week of August 25th.  The MOMentum Hub is a free community for mom entrepreneurs who want clarity, consistency, and momentum without burnout.

    130. The Difference Between Using AI and Building an AI-Supported Business

    Send us Fan Mail There's a big difference between using AI and actually building an AI-supported business and most mom entrepreneurs are stuck on the wrong side of that line without even realizing it. In this episode, I'm breaking down the #1 mistake I see in my community (and lived myself): using AI as a task doer instead of a strategic partner. When you're working 20 hours a week, that distinction is everything. I'm sharing exactly what changed for me when I stopped treating AI like a vending machine and started using it like a strategic coworker and what that actually looks like in practice for a mom with limited hours.  Here's what we're covering: The #1 mistake mom entrepreneurs make with AI (and why it's not your fault)The difference between using AI and building an AI-supported business3 things that shift when AI becomes part of how you plan, create, and protect your timeWhat it looks like when AI actually knows your business and why that changes everythingGrab the free AI for CEO Moms Playbook — it's the practical starting point for everything covered in this episode.

    129. My AI-Powered Weekly CEO Workflow

    Send us Fan Mail If you're still doing everything manually because it feels more "authentic," this episode is going to challenge that in the best way. This week, Jenny is pulling back the curtain on her actual AI-powered weekly CEO workflow. Not a theoretical framework. Not a "here's what you should do" lecture. The real thing she uses every single week to run her business in about 20 hours, keep her content moving, and still have brain capacity left at the end of the day. She's walking you through exactly how Claude shows up across all three of her weekly work containers — CEO Day, Content Batching Day, and Client Day and why each one looks completely different. You'll hear how she uses AI to think more clearly, batch content faster, prep for client calls, and handle sensitive communication without agonizing over every word. The biggest takeaway? AI doesn't replace your genius. It protects your time. And for a mom running a business in 20-ish hours a week, that's not a nice-to-have — it's the whole game. In this episode: The 3-day weekly structure Jenny builds her workflow aroundHow she uses Claude on CEO Day to stop spinning and start decidingHer exact content batching process (including podcast outlines, show notes, and emails)Why Client Day is the most underrated place to use AIThe difference between using AI as a thinking partner vs. a crutchThe MOMentum Hub is a free community for mom entrepreneurs who want clarity, consistency, and momentum without burnout.

    128. 5 Tasks Every Service Provider Should Stop Doing Manually

    Send us Fan Mail You started your business to have more freedom so why does client onboarding, follow-up emails, and scheduling eat up the hours you actually have to work? If you're running your business in 20 hours a week or less, you cannot afford to spend those hours on tasks a system could handle while you're making lunch. In this episode, I break down the five tasks service providers need to stop doing manually like, yesterday. You'll learn: Why automated client onboarding is the single fastest time-saver in your business (and how tools like Dubsado make it a zero-minute process)How inconsistent follow-up is quietly costing you clients and the simple fixThe scheduling back-and-forth that's stealing 20+ hours a year from youHow to actually see your pipeline so you can make smarter CEO decisionsWhy an automated checkout isn't a luxury — it's how you get paid while you sleepAutomation isn't about removing the human touch from your business. It's about protecting your time so the human touch you do give is intentional, energized, and sustainable.

    126. How to Get Booked on Podcasts as a Mom Entrepreneur (Without Cold Pitching or Chasing Big Shows) with Candace Dudley

    Send us Fan Mail Getting booked on podcasts isn't about chasing big numbers — it's about getting strategic with who's in the room. Candace Dudley, podcast guesting strategist, joins me on this episode to break down exactly how mom entrepreneurs can use podcast guesting as a legitimate visibility strategy that actually converts without the spam pitches, the follower obsession, or the "I'll start when I'm ready" trap. In this episode, you'll learn: Why your speaking topics are the foundation of everything (and why skipping this step is costing you aligned bookings)The two-part pitch formula that doesn't feel salesy even if you have an MLM-adjacent ick with cold outreachWhy smaller, niche shows often convert better than the big names you're chasingThe one mindset trick that helped Candace actually send her pitches (and how pretending you're your own assistant changes everything)What to do after the episode airs so you don't burn bridges or miss the authority-building moment you worked forThe three-step plan for getting your first (or next) podcast appearance booked this monthIf you've been thinking podcast guesting "isn't for you yet" — this episode is your sign that you're already ready.

    125. The Real Reason Most Moms Don't Use AI Consistently

    Send us Fan Mail You tried AI, you got excited and then you went back to doing everything yourself and honestly, same. But here's the thing: it's not because AI doesn't work. It's because you've been using it like a vending machine. Every session starting from scratch. Zero context. A prompt in, an output out, and then you forget it exists for three weeks.  In this episode, I'm breaking down the one mindset shift that changes how AI actually works for you: treating Claude like a coworker instead of a vending machine. Because when your AI already knows your business, your voice, your audience, and what you're working on — your sessions get faster, your outputs get better, and it finally starts to feel like actual support. You'll walk away knowing: Why the vending machine approach leads to inconsistent results (and eventual abandonment)What the Claude Coworker Method is and how to use it in your real mom-life scheduleThe one thing to do before your next AI session that will change everythingHow to build an AI rhythm that actually sticks — no complicated systems requiredIf you've ever said "AI doesn't really work for my business," this episode is your reframe. → Ready to go deeper?

    124. Momentum Isn’t About Doing More — It’s About Not Starting Over

    Send us Fan Mail Momentum isn't built during your highest-capacity seasons — it's built in the maintenance seasons. The ones where life is messy, your schedule is disrupted, and you keep moving anyway. If you've ever found yourself going all-in on your business and then completely disappearing the second summer hits, this episode is for you. I break down why the all-or-nothing business cycle is the real reason moms feel like they're constantly rebuilding from scratch and what to do instead. You'll learn the concept of Minimum Viable Visibility (MVV): the minimum amount of consistency needed to stay connected to your audience during lower-capacity seasons without burning out or starting over every fall. In this episode: Why momentum is actually built in the maintenance seasons, not the hustle onesHow disappearing completely costs you more than slowing down ever wouldWhat Minimum Viable Visibility looks like in real mom-life termsHow to stop measuring momentum by output and start measuring it by stabilityIf you're heading into summer already mentally preparing to ghost your audience, this is your permission slip to do it differently.
