Your kids won't remember how much you made. They'll remember if you were there.
In this raw and honest episode, I'm getting real about the trade-offs between building a coaching business and being present for your family. I share why I turned down a hypothetical $2 million opportunity, the "radio knob" metaphor that changed how I approach my days, and the permission slip you might need to define success differently.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- Why the "you can have it all" message sets moms up to fail
- The radio knob framework for managing business and family priorities
- My non-negotiables as a business owner and mom (and why they matter)
- How to measure success beyond revenue numbers
- The difference between intentional choices and guilt-driven defaults
This episode is for you if:
- You're struggling with mom guilt while building your business
- You're measuring success by someone else's metrics
- You want permission to build slowly or work part-time
- You're ready to design your business around your actual life
