I was able to walk away from my teaching career the day my son was born and was making as much income in my freelancing business as I was in my job. Are you ready for that type of financial freedom so you can work a business at home with your kids being present for all those moments that actually matter? I’m here to walk you through step-by-step how I personally grew my freelancing business to a consistent 4-figure a month profit. This is for you if you are looking for the secrets to take your service-based business next level.

The Freelancer to CEO podcast is hosted by mom & former elementary teacher turned business strategist and coach, Aubree Malick. Each week, I will be sharing business strategy, systems and tactical tips that you can take and implement into your business today so you can finally step into that CEO role you desire and have the financial freedom you crave. In addition to sharing my proven system that helped me launch and scale my own super successful freelancing business, I will interview others who are the best in their signature service so they can share their secrets on how to scale your business to new heights.

Mom’s Exit Interview with Former Netflix Exec Kim Rittberg Jul 18, 2022

Show notes

Why are you here, listening to this podcast? I’m going to go out on a limb and say you’ve had a moment in your life that you felt that you wanted more. More freedom, more income, more passion, more happiness, etc. I would LOVE to hear the story of your defining moment.

Whether you’ve had the full epiphany and are knee-deep in freelancing or you’re just testing the waters checking things out to see if this is right. This is your sign, this can be your defining moment, and if it is - you had better send me a DM on Instagram and tell me!

Today we get to chat with a woman with all the stories including training celebrities how to be on camera. What?! We’re in a world of video now, so let’s get with the times and soak in all of Kim’s wisdom.

Capping off a 15 year career in TV news and digital (at Fox, Netflix, PopSugar), Kim Rittberg launched and ran the video unit for Us Weekly, overseeing an 18 person team…until her parent company was purchased. She found herself trying to salvage what she had worked so hard for, all from the hospital with an IV in her arm as she delivered her second child. While Kim still had her executive job, she lost her desire to be in corporate America. Kim launched her own company, which offers video and content strategy and media training. However her path to entrepreneurship was riddled with questions and anxieties, thus giving birth to the MOM’S EXIT INTERVIEW podcast which aims to inspire and educate moms seeking fulfillment outside the traditional 9-to-5.

In this episode, you will learn:

Kim’s story of having her dream job to creating her dream life
What moms across the country are saying about their jobs in & out of the house
How to gain confidence on camera
