Jill Rose is an experienced life coach and owner of Jill Rose Coaching. She works with women to help them reclaim their joy. And Jill truly is a joy to know.

A 100% organic clothing company focused on reducing our impact on the environment and giving back to people in need, Abi and her partner Danny believe in creating sustainable products that help our environment and make a difference for future generations but also for people here, right now.

I spent my fortieth year working through these questions, reframing my goals as a mother, partner, professional, and woman over forty. And I don’t have the answers, to be honest. But, this month, I turned forty-one, and a peace settled over me. Here’s what I realized as I moved from forty to forty-one and am now solidly in my “forties.”

I am most proud of my ability to balance the things that matter to me. I have been able to run and grow my business, be there for my three kids, maintain my friendships and foster new ones, be a loving wife (although sometimes bitchy 😉), take care of my mind and body, read great books, and most importantly, not take life too seriously!

I am incredibly proud of the relationships I have cultivated over the years – the very real and dear friendships I have nurtured. Those relationships never fail to lift me and keep me going. Read the full post.

The reality was, I couldn't. I was too overwhelmed, too overworked, too overscheduled. I had become responsible for too much. There was literally no way I was going to be able to do it all. So like a frozen yogurt of responsibility, the tasks, and events, and commitments kept swirling around and around me until I was totally covered by soft-serve, sticky bullshit. This was when I learned one of the most valuable lessons of my life: You can do anything you want, but be careful what you ask for...so let's start there, shall we? Read the blog on the biggest lessons I’ve learned from life mistakes.

When you meet Jessica Sturzenegger, CEO and cofounder, Amara Organic Baby Food, you’re immediately struck by her positive and warm personality, as well as her clear passion for health and wellness that can be delivered through food. Here is her story on the Entreprenista Mama blog.

To change our perceptions of women, who they should be, and how they should express themselves, we first must understand why it's so damaging to tell people to be 'less emotional.'

I'm the first to overthink things. I'm the first to run through all the scenarios, possible pitfalls, and potential positive or negative outcomes.

It’s all about perfectionism, and when to let go. Read more on the blog.

I am working on loving myself and living the life that makes me content. I am a work in progress. And I'm cool with that. Read more on the Entreprenista Mama blog.

I had my daughter in 2016 and realized there were not many swimwear options that were both premium quality and eco-conscious. I wanted to create a brand that had the colors, prints, and style of something I would wear but made for my kids. That’s how the brand was born! Saint Maddox also focuses on sustainability by using recycled fabrics and trims, in addition to only producing domestically, which helps our planet.

There is no right way to support women. There is no right way to be a mother. There is no right way to be a feminist. And suppose we, as women, really want to affect continual and lasting change for our daughters and their daughters. In that case, we may need to start supporting each other for real instead of one-upping and putting other women down to raise ourselves up.
