What I saw on Shark Tank the other week perfectly illustrated the toxic business myths that are burning women out left and right. A college student with impeccable numbers and a highly profitable business didn't land a deal (not because his business wasn't amazing, but because he wasn't "hustling" enough). He was still in school, which meant he wasn't sacrificing everything, and that somehow made him less worthy of investment. Meanwhile, another couple with terrible numbers got a deal because they were broke and sleeping in garages.

Friends, we need to talk about this.

If you're a woman who's also a caregiver, these lies hit differently. When conventional business wisdom tells you that real entrepreneurs sacrifice everything, work 80-hour weeks, and achieve overnight success, it's sending a subtle message: you can't do this. But here's the truth... those are complete myths, and I'm living proof that there's another way to build a successful business without burning yourself out.

In This Episode, I'll Cover:

• Why the "sacrifice everything" mentality is toxic for women entrepreneurs
• The overnight success lie that's setting unrealistic expectations
• The two-option growth trap that leads to burnout and plateaus
• How these myths are causing women to close profitable businesses
• Why conventional business advice fails women (especially caregivers)

Tired of family meetings that end with eye rolls, groans, and everyone feeling worse than when you started? You're not alone. Most families approach these conversations all wrong, turning them into lecture sessions or crisis management instead of the connection and coordination tools they're meant to be.

In this episode, I'm joined by Christy Keating, founder of The Heartful Parent Collective and licensed attorney turned parent coach. Christy shares why most family meetings fail and the mindset shifts that make all the difference. We dive into the biggest misconceptions about family meetings, signs your family could benefit from them, and how to get started without the resistance.

In This Episode, We'll Cover:

• Why traditional family meetings feel like punishment to everyone involved
• Signs your family could benefit from regular meetings beyond calendar coordination
• How to introduce the concept to skeptical family members
• The appreciation practice you can start today at your dinner table
• Why every family needs regular communication rhythms (just like workplace teams)

If you've ever wondered whether time management systems can work for someone with ADHD, this episode is essential listening. The truth is, most productivity advice out there wasn't designed with neurodivergent brains in mind, and that's why so many women with ADHD feel like they're failing at systems that simply weren't built for them.

I'm joined by Meghan Brown-Enyia, an ADHD coach and social worker who specializes in helping women with ADHD thrive in their careers. Meghan breaks down what ADHD actually is (and isn't), why traditional productivity methods often backfire, and shares practical strategies that honor how the ADHD brain actually works. Whether you have ADHD yourself, live with someone who does, or work with neurodivergent colleagues, this conversation will transform how you think about productivity and planning.

In This Episode, We Cover:

• What ADHD really is and how it shows up differently in women
• Why "just time block everything" doesn't work for ADHD brains
• The difference between predictable and unpredictable tasks
• How to work with time blindness instead of fighting it
• The power of giving yourself permission to get distracted (with limits)
• When outsourcing might be your best productivity tool
