    From Shame to Strategy: Rethinking Business Credit as a Tool for Growth

    Ever feel like taking out business credit means you've failed as an entrepreneur? You’re not alone, and this episode of Moms Makin’ Dough is about to flip that story on its head. Host Kendra Hewitt dives into one of the most frequently asked (and most emotionally loaded) questions she gets: What’s your take on business credit, and how do you use it wisely? From her first line of credit at age 20 to the $100,000 line that helped skyrocket her practice into seven-figure territory, Kendra shares how her mindset, and strategy, around credit has evolved. This episode tackles the guilt, fear, and confusion many mompreneurs feel about debt and repositions credit as a powerful tool when used with intention. You’ll also learn Kendra’s signature "3 C’s of Business Credit" framework, Clean, Credit, and Create, which she uses with coaching clients to help them build confidence and cash flow without shame. Whether you're feeling stuck, scared, or just need clarity on using credit to grow (not just survive), this episode is a goldmine. We explore: → Why business credit isn't failure, it's fuel, when used intentionally → The 3 C’s Framework for using credit as a tool, not a trap → How to shift your mindset from fear to strategy around debt → Five smart, practical ways to use business credit to create real growth → Why preparation (not panic) is the key to unlocking better credit terms "Lenders love preparation more than desperation.

    3 Questions to Upgrade Your Money Mindset in 2026

    If 2025 felt like quiet survival mode, shedding old skin, releasing patterns, and outgrowing beliefs, this episode is your permission slip to move differently in 2026. In the first Moms Makin’ Dough episode of the year, host Kendra Hewitt breaks down the energy shift from the “Year of the Snake” into the Year of the Fire Horse (officially beginning Feb 17), and what it means for your money mindset, finances, time, and momentum. This isn’t about manifesting without action, it’s about clarity. About noticing what got cleared in your life and using that path to build real financial confidence. If you’re a working mom, entrepreneur, or high-achiever who’s tired of hustle patterns, performance pressure, and survival-based decisions, this conversation will meet you right where you are. You’ll reflect on the money stories you’re ready to release, where you need to drop the reins (control), and how to step into unbridled momentum, with courage, support, and space to expand. Think: less forcing, more flow… but grounded in truth, strategy, and what actually matters. Highlights: → The mindset shift from shedding (2025) to momentum (2026) → 3 reflection questions to identify what you outgrew and what to release → How to spot old money stories and survival-based financial decisions → Why hustle patterns keep moms stuck (and how to let them go) → The “drop the reins” metaphor: control vs. trust in your finances → The powerful framework: Called Out vs. Called Up vs. Called In → What to “call in” this year: support, creativity, community, space Learn more about Kendra Hewitt by visiting the following links: Website Facebook Instagram Identifying Your Money Blueprint - Free Download Learn more about your ad choices.

    Are you doing all the “right” money things and still feeling anxious, guilty, or behind? In this episode of Moms Makin’ Dough, we dive into healing your money story and finding real financial peace as a mom, not just chasing the buzzword “financial freedom.” 3rd-generation attorney, mom, and mentor Meg shares how she turned generational money patterns, big financial decisions, and entrepreneurship into a grounded, more peaceful relationship with money. What You’ll Learn: → How Meg’s money story began with her grandfather’s law practice, wealth, and service, and what she actually kept (and rejected) from that model → The difference between financial freedom vs. financial peace (and why peace starts with non-reactivity, not a number in your bank account) → How to see money as energy and flow, instead of a verdict on your worth as a woman, mom, or entrepreneur → The “baby steps” mindset that helped Meg and her husband move into their dream home when the numbers on paper said “no way” → Why most women over-give and under-receive, and how to practice receiving (from friends, clients, and money itself) without guilt → The real talk about being a mom, business owner, and leader: boundaries, burnout, and knowing when not to look at your bank accounts → How to question the “rules” of money, roles in partnership, and business so you can design your life instead of living by default Learn more about Kendra Hewitt by visiting the following links: Website Facebook InstagramIdentifying Your Money Blueprint - Free Download Learn more about your ad choices.
