    122. Rediscover Your Voice: Speaking with Confidence and Connection with Alexina Atin Shaber

    You can have a great business strategy, an amazing offer, and a clear idea of who you want to help, but at some point, you have to be willing to talk about what you do and why it matters. For many of us, especially through the transition into motherhood and entrepreneurship, using our voice with confidence can feel much harder than it sounds. In this episode, I’m joined by my friend Alexina Atin Shaber, a communication coach who helps women rediscover and strengthen their voices. We talk about what it means to sound like yourself, how your voice can create connection, and why speaking from the heart can be so much more powerful than trying to sound polished or perfect. If you’ve been holding back from sharing what you really think, care about, or have to offer, I hope this conversation gives you a little more confidence to use your voice.

    121. How to Set Boundaries Without Giving Away Your Power

    If you’ve ever set a boundary with your partner, your kids, or your family and then felt even more frustrated when they didn’t respect it, there’s a good chance what you set wasn’t actually a boundary. It was a rule. And understanding the difference can completely change the way you think about boundaries and your own sense of control. In this episode, I share a coaching conversation that helped one of my clients see her boundaries in a completely different way. You'll hear examples from marriage, parenting, and everyday life to show how this shift can help you feel more empowered instead of helpless, frustrated, or resentful.

    120. Are You Accidentally Creating a Result You Don’t Want?

    When you really want something to go well, it’s easy to start worrying about all the ways it could go wrong. Maybe you want to feel closer to your child, succeed in a new role, have a better relationship, or grow your business. When you’re carrying a lot of worry and fear about the outcome, it can affect how you show up. Without realizing it, you can end up creating more of the very thing you were trying to avoid. In this episode, I walk you through three steps for interrupting this pattern when you notice it happening. I explain how the stories we tell ourselves create emotions, how those emotions influence our actions, and how those actions can move us toward or away from the results we actually want. You’ll learn how to separate a story from a fact, find the stories that already exist within you that serve you, and ask yourself how you want to show up in the moment.

    119. Create a Rich Life on Your Own Terms

    What would make your life feel rich? Maybe it’s picking your kids up from school every day, taking a month off every summer, traveling with your family, or simply not opening your laptop after bedtime. Your version of a rich life doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. It’s about getting intentional about the things that bring you the most joy, connection, and freedom, and then figuring out how to create more of them. In this episode, I share the conversation my husband and I had six years ago that changed the way we thought about our time, money, and the life we wanted to create together. I discuss what a rich life actually means and invite you to think about your own unique, rich life. Because your business doesn’t have to be the destination. It can be the vehicle that gives you the flexibility, income, and freedom to create the life you actually want.

    How to Increase Your Capacity with Better Self-Talk

    As moms, we often assume overwhelm comes from having too much to do. But sometimes it’s actually about not having the capacity to hold everything that’s already on our plate. And while we often look for solutions like deleting tasks, asking for help, or creating better systems, there’s another piece we have much more control over: the way we talk to ourselves. In this episode, I share why self-talk matters so much, especially when we’re balancing motherhood, building a business, and trying to show up for all the people who need us. Listen in as I help you notice the conversations happening in your head and start shifting them into thoughts that build your capacity instead of drain it.

    It’s Always Working: How to Reduce Mental Drama and Build Your Business

    One of the biggest things that slows moms down in business usually isn’t a lack of strategy. It’s the mental drama that happens when we start worrying, second guessing ourselves, and deciding that what we’re doing isn’t working. When we believe we’re failing or falling behind, it can drain our energy, motivation, and confidence. In this episode, I share a mindset shift that has helped me and many of the moms I work with stop spiraling when things don’t go according to plan: it’s always working. This doesn’t mean pretending everything is fine or ignoring information. It means recognizing that we only see one small piece of what’s happening and choosing to believe that every experience is giving us information, moving us forward, or teaching us something we need to know.

    Friendships That Fuel Growth: How Moms Can Expand Their Circle

    If you’re trying something new, like starting a business outside your 9-5, not everyone around you will understand or get excited about your ambitions. Some friends might see your goals as risky, while others may steer the conversation back to familiar topics. If you can relate, it might be time to expand your circle to include people who understand, who think bigger, and who encourage you to succeed. In this episode, I share why cultivating a network of friends who focus on growth is so important for mom entrepreneurs. These are people who get excited about new ideas, take risks, and are actively building something themselves. I explore how the conversations you have over coffee, dinner, or even on the sidelines at a soccer game can influence your mindset, your creativity, and your motivation in ways you might not realize.
