The Unbusy Mom: Because you’re ambitious, you want to grow your business, and you still want a life. — Kids & Family
The Unbusy Mom: Because you’re ambitious, you want to grow your business, and you still want a life.

You’re ambitious. You want the money, the challenge, the launches, the strategy, the satisfaction of figuring out a hard problem and thinking, yep, I nailed that.

So how did we end up here?

Working all day and still not getting to the thing you actually wanted to do. Feeling pulled in a million directions. Putting your own projects off again. Being the CEO of your business and somehow also the COO of everybody else’s life.

‘Cause you can make the launch work. The kids’ schedules work. The team work. The Sunday night work. The vacation-with-the-laptop work.

You can make almost anything work.

Until you look up and think… wait. Why am I doing all of this?

I’m Alyssa, and I’ve spent a lot of time figuring out how to build a business I love without making my entire life revolve around keeping it running.

On The Unbusy Mom, we’re going to question some of the things you’ve probably accepted as just how business works.

We’ll talk about motherhood, ambition, Human Design, time management, delegation, productivity…. And the invisible responsibilities that make your business feel heavier than it needs to be.

I.e., what actually has to change when you want a business AND a life. Because I don’t think you’re here to prove how much you can carry.

Because I don’t think you’re here to prove how much you can carry.

You wanted it all – business AND kids.

So you’re going to have to make some changes to the structure of the one you’ve already got.

If you’re tired of feeling stretched thin and ready to reclaim your time, this episode is for you! You’ll learn:

The biggest reasons moms struggle to say no
How to confidently set boundaries without guilt
The power of delegation and how to start using it today
Why shifting your mindset about worthiness changes everything

Nope - you don't actually have to choose between the business you want and the life you want.

That's what the Business Cleanout is for.

You send me the messy version of your business, your responsibilities, your projects, your team, your life.

I'll take your whole pile and turn it around within 30 days.

Because you don't need to spend another month trying to make everything fit.

You need to see what can change so you can crush the goals you've been dreaming about and still be there for the kids.

You’re going to have to redo your daily schedule THIS often as a busy work-at-home mom - and no one warned you about it. Mar 20, 2025

Show notes

The best work/life balance rhythms aren't static; the best work-from-home family routines aren't set in stone.

Babies grow, which means their sleep and food needs change to match. (You have lots of experience with this already!)

Well, your business grows, too.

Your client load increases
You're in a launch, and you need someone else to make lunch for the family each day of open cart
And then there’s your annual going-on-vacation prep routine….

Look: you're a mom, and your kids (and business!) are growing, and that's normal.

Here’s how to handle it.

You’ve got this!

Are you committed to enjoying a great work/life balance in your business, or are you just interested? Mar 18, 2025

Show notes

Because those are two different things. And I don’t think most mompreneurs realize the difference.

See, being “interested” in change is usually thought to be enough. You’re doing all the things, researching, talking about it, talking up what you’re going to do, what the best options are, etc.

But you’re not actually out there, making that calendar availability change. Outsourcing something different. Testing it out.

You’re still just DECIDING if you want to do it.

And that’s not actual work/life balance. Nor will it ever get you there.

You’ve got this!

Don’t let yourself think THIS if you want to be a successful 6-figure entrepreneur! Mar 13, 2025

Show notes

“I’m just going to be in hustle mode for a bit.”

Rewind!!

You’re running a business, and your mom friends aren’t, but you’re measuring yourself by the exact same standard.

But you’re doing the house, the husband, and the kids AND the marketing, the lead gen, the team, the content, and the courses (or clients) - she isn’t!

So it’s time to get clear on what you’re actually struggling with, plus how much white space (aka, time) you actually NEED to accomplish your business-mom day-in-a-life priorities.

You’ve got this!

If I see THIS at the end of your day, you’re off track for being a great mom AND a thriving business owner. Mar 11, 2025

Show notes

Have you bought into this?

Are you constantly fighting against that pull of “I’ve got to tire myself out today”?

Here’s what this mentality robs you of.

It steals the joy of sitting down when you need a break (‘cause “you’re not done yet”).
It takes the end goal of “I did my work, now I get to rest” away from you (because the only rest you get is bed).
It robs you of every single ounce of enjoyment of your family, because hey – you’re supposed to serve till you drop, remember? (And it’s hard not to resent them for that.)

Mama, let’s do THIS instead and turn this whole (false!) cultural narrative around.

You’ve got this!

Client case study: I tell all my clients THIS when they’re already out of energy but they’ve got a huge to-do list! Mar 06, 2025

Show notes

Your to-do list is stacking up, your own energy is dropping, and you just can’t muster up the brain power to knock out anything else – but all those tasks are super important and really have to get done this week (or month).

Sound familiar?

If this is you, I just had a client in this exact situation, so I’ll let you listen in on what I told her.

(It’s the REALISTIC way to get it all done!)

You’ve got this!

Try THIS to wake up your brain when you’ve got a full day of projects and clients ahead, and you stayed up too late last night! Mar 04, 2025

Show notes

You know all those great dreams and plans you had for yourself when you started working at home?

Those “I’m going to love every minute of my flexible, work from home day, get up at 5am every morning, drink a green smoothie, and dive into deep work for 2 hours before my kids are awake”?

Yeah, those ones.

How about the realistic way to avoid burnout when the shiny newness has worn off, and you’re faced instead with the reality of “I stayed up too late last night, I’ve got clients to serve this morning, and I need an energetic shift right NOW”?

Client case study: Do THIS to fit in big annual business tasks (like tax prep and accounting) when you’re short on room in your weekly business schedule! Feb 27, 2025

Show notes

I know you've got a nice, everyday, taking-care-of-my clients and handling-my-kids set of routines down.

In fact, you really like your typical work-from-home life!

But then comes along the reconciling, or the end-of-year accounting, or the back-end inventory-ing, and you HATE those tasks.

Not to mention, because you hate them, you've been putting them off for months, so you REALLY have a snowed-under to-do list!

It's not just a matter of entering this week's transactions - oh, no. It's more like “enter the last 9 months of transactions, and hope I get everything right!”

Your avoidance feelings make complete sense from a work/life balance perspective - because this one nasty task has gotten built up so much, that it's almost insurmountable to picture yourself actually making a dent in it!

So of course you're feeling discouraged and overwhelmed and not doing anything about it.

But what if you asked someone else for help…. And she told you THIS?

You’ve got this!

Stop buying into all that working mom guilt – quit it by doing THIS! Feb 25, 2025

Show notes

Listen, it’s time you stopped paying the price. The CEO mom guilt price, I mean.

The price for not knowing if you’ve got enough time to finish your to-do list today.
The price for staying up too late the night before cramming in another website consult and all the quotes to go with it.
The price for dithering over what the EXACT next right goal on your quarterly to-do list should be.
The price for frittering away precious kid-free work time, down the social media scroll hole again.

You’ve already paid so much.

But you’re still stuck with that miles-long to-do list. (Especially when you think about 2x-ing this business!)

I’ve got the fix for you - keep listening to grab it.

You’ve got this!
