The Hard Truth About Being a Working Mom...and How to Find Balance Anyway with Boss Mom (# 192)
Manage episode 514883058 series 3478989
If you’ve ever felt like you have too much on your plate, this episode of The Balancing Busy Podcast is for you. I got to sit down with my longtime friend and fellow mom entrepreneur, Dana Malstaff, founder of Boss Mom, for a real, raw conversation about the messy, beautiful, and often overwhelming reality of being a working mom.
We pulled back the curtain on what it really looks like to juggle business, family, identity, and self-worth—and how to finally find a rhythm that feels sustainable.
IN THIS EPISODE:
- The truth about “having it all” — and why trying to do everything leads to burnout.
- How poor boundaries and people-pleasing keep moms stuck in overwhelm.
- What it really means to honor your current season (and why sometimes it’s not the right time to go all in).
- How to redefine success and build a business that supports your life, not runs it.
- Why being a “boss mom” means being the CEO of your own life — on your terms.
