After years of getting it wrong, this serial mompreneur and podcast host is here to tell you a key lesson in the life of a busy woman: You will be way more effective, successful, and satisfied in life if you take moments of transition (like the end of one year, before moving into the next), to pause and reflect before jumping on board the plane of planning, setting resolutions, and goals, and launching off into the sunrise without checking your past-history fuel tanks – because let’s face it, you’re not jetting off anywhere with empty tanks.

Here’s the deal. I can’t give you a magic pill to achieve your goals. I’m not going to sit here and tell you that I have a secret formula to success or that you’re even necessarily on the right track. What I will tell you is that I’ve tried and failed at many things in life, from relationships to businesses. I’ve also tried and succeeded in just as many adventures. Along the way, I’ve learned a few things about staying committed to goals in life and in business as a woman and a mother. Are you ready? Let’s dig in.

If you’re dying to escape the professional trap you find yourself in. If you have a business idea that you are itching to start. Or, you just want more flexibility with your family, I’m excited to share some of what I’ve learned as a woman business owner, and mompreneur with over ten years of experience starting businesses, failing at businesses, and getting back up to try again.

This past month was all about the adventure of summer, new places, people, and things we fell in love with—and big surprise… I want to share it with you!

Are you more of the staycation type or big-time-summer adventurer? Perhaps you're lugging along a troup of kids or vacationing with your sweetheart.

Whether you're the bootstrap tent-camping type or big resort type, here's the official Womanhood Unwrapped roundup for the remainder of summer – complete with highlights tailored especially for the superhero working women and moms out there.

Let's get real for a moment. Being a woman in business isn't all power suits and corner offices (though, let's be honest, a good blazer never hurt anyone).

When I started my first business, I had no idea what I was doing (I still don't half the time!). Because of that, I learned a lot of hard lessons and did things wrong in various ways.

Business ownership is a journey—a rollercoaster filled with highs that make you feel invincible and lows that have you questioning your life choices over a pint of ice cream at 3 AM. But fear not—every twist and turn on this wild ride comes with a lesson or two, and I'm here to spill the tea. Buckle up, boss babes; this one's for you.

Our mental well-being influences how we think, feel, and behave in daily life. It affects our ability to cope with stress, overcome challenges, build relationships, and recover from life's setbacks and hardships. Just like physical health, mental health requires regular maintenance and care. I had to learn this the hard way, but taking care of your mind can be smoothly integrated into your life if you try.

Let's explore practical steps to nurturing your mind, including mindfulness practices, stress management techniques, and strategies for fostering a positive mindset.

I’m getting so excited for summer, camping, traveling, and spending time with my kiddos away from the hustle of the school year.

So, in anticipation of the summer fun to come, here’s your Womanhood Unwrapped monthly lifestyle wrap-up for May 2024.

It’s always struck me as odd that there’s a cultural expectation that people will find the career they want by the time they are eighteen years old and will stay in that profession for their whole working life!

Here are seven critical steps to take if you’re considering a career change.
