Description

Have you ever looked in the mirror after another exhausting day and thought, “When did I stop being ME and become just MOM?” Your passions, hobbies, and friendships feel so distant, buried beneath sleepless nights and the never-ending to-do lists of raising young children.I get it. I’ve been there too. As a mom of two young kids, I’ve experienced the frustration of losing myself in the chaos of motherhood. I know how overwhelming it can be to find time for yourself, meet other moms, find a supportive mom community, and even entertain the idea of starting a side hustle, creative project, or small business. That’s why I created this podcast—to help moms like us rediscover who we are and take the first steps toward meaningful change.Hi, I’m Krissy. I’m a former teacher and teacher coach who has always embraced new opportunities and juggled multiple side gigs. Over the past four years, I’ve been on a journey to rediscover my identity beyond motherhood—and I’ve finally figured it out. Along the way, I’ve helped other moms reconnect with their passions, explore creative ideas, and build meaningful connections with other moms by helping them create practical, realistic plans to rediscover their identities—even through the chaos and busyness of parenting. Whether you’re looking for ideas for mom entrepreneurs, tips on balancing parenting and being a mompreneur, inspiration to take that first step, or simply love hearing stories of moms navigating motherhood and building something extraordinary, this podcast is your guide to rediscovering yourself and creating something amazing.In this podcast, you’ll hear honest, relatable stories from moms just like you—women who’ve navigated the challenges of parenting, discovered new passions, built businesses, and launched side hustles. Each episode offers practical self-care advice, uplifting moments, and fresh ideas to help you take small steps toward rediscovering yourself. You’ll find inspiration and support for all the mom guilt, parenting challenges, and the struggle to balance personal development. The demands of family life can leave you feeling lost in the midst of motherhood challenges. It’s time to take control of your personal growth and find ways to prioritize self-care for moms like us.Whether you’re lost in a mountain of diapers or longing for hope and connection, each episode will leave you feeling seen, inspired, and supported on your motherhood journey.
