Ep. 9: (Season 2) This is NOT ”My Little Hobby”

Send us a text

Have you ever felt that stinging dismissal when someone casually refers to your business as your "little hobby"? Those seemingly innocent words carry weight, subtly diminishing what might be your life's work and passion.

Today's episode confronts this common experience faced by mother entrepreneurs, creators, and visionaries. We explore the powerful truth that what you're creating isn't small or insignificant—it's your legacy in motion. Whether you're crafting products at your kitchen table, coaching other mothers, or building your online presence during precious moments of quiet, your work transcends mere pastime status. It represents your unique gift to the world and future generations.

We also address the impossible standards mothers in business often face: the expectation to balance everything flawlessly without showing struggle. But your community doesn't need another perfectly curated highlight reel—they need your authentic journey, including the messy in-between moments. Your transparency creates permission for others to show up exactly as they are.

Remember that you're not just building a brand—you're building belief. Every time you persist through challenges, you demonstrate to your children what's possible. Your business becomes tangible proof that dreams can flourish even amid the beautiful chaos of motherhood. What you're creating matters deeply—to your family, to other women watching your journey, and to the future version of yourself who will look back with immense pride at what you've built.

Tag another mom entrepreneur who might need this reminder, and share your thoughts with me. I'm here cheering you on through every victory and challenge on your entrepreneurial journey.
