How to start your own business with Laura Markz Jul 01, 2021

Show notes

@lauramarkz is a former online strategy executive, turned corporate dropout, entrepreneur, and mom of two. With over a decade of experience building businesses online and being in the trenches herself, she's the founder of MyBizU, where her mission is to help moms across the globe build their own businesses. She's completely changing the game of entrepreneurship, flipping what's notoriously known for being a high-risk and high-stress path on it's head... Reinventing the game to work for the biggest bosses out there: MOMS. So they can easily turn their passions and strengths into a profitable business that prioritizes what's most important to them. And make it happen on top of an already busy schedule.

She is a BOSS, and we're going to get into it in today's episode... We talk about motherhood, entrepreneurship, the working mom dilemma (which is actually an all of us mom dilemma), why she's so fucking passionate about supporting moms as business owners (and why it should get you fired up too, if it hasn't already), how she built her company, her biggest lessons and advice for entrepreneurs and ones in the making, AND to top it all off, she's giving away a free resource for those out there who are interested in trading in the traditional options society gives us as moms to making money doing what you love, on your schedule. So stay tuned for that, because it will give you exactly what you need to get started.

The Mom Dilemma:

As moms, we're stuck in this all-or-nothing scenario, where we're expected to choose between succeeding in work or in motherhood. To succeed in one area, it can feel like huge sacrifices have to be made at home, with our careers, or both. On top of all the guilt and feelings of failure, many of us are left with a HUGE void when it comes to what WE want... what we want to do, how we want to grow, and what we want to accomplish. In this episode, Laura unpacks the Mom Dilemma, redefines "balance" and discusses effective ways to navigate holding onto our own dreams and aspirations, while rocking it as a mom.

How to Survive a Toddler and Newborn with Abbey WIlliams Jun 17, 2021

Show notes

Linda Fruits sits down for an interview with the lovely Abbey Williams from @mimosaswithmoms on Instagram. Abbey began her motherhood journey as a young mom. Before there were Facebook mom groups, an Instagram community, and before most of her peers. The lack of a mom community was hard. They say it takes a village to raise a child, but the mother too needs a village. Mimosas with Moms was created from a place of love and a deep desire to make motherhood less lonely, more connected, and more joyful! Through intentional parenting and supporting one another, we can create a better motherhood!

Abbey is a behavioral health therapist, a mother of 4, the author of An ABC of Families, the host of the Mimosas with Moms Podcast, and the Founder of this beautiful community, Mimosas with Moms.

Watch this episode for:

Her tip to handling dinner time with so many little humans,
How did she know her last baby was her last,
What advice she would give new moms.
