What Nobody Tells You About Scaling as a Female Founder
Our Florida house went on the market in January. We expected it to sell in two or three months, and it sat for seven while my husband and I lived with a low-level anxiety we couldn't shake. That same year I committed to four City Girls cities and ended up canceling two of them. This episode is about what I learned from both: when you grow, you need more support to carry it, and I didn't give myself enough. Episode Overview I'm recording from my new office in Texas with a full behind-the-scenes update on the move, the business, and where everything is headed. I talk through why I take full responsibility for the City Girls cancellations, what it cost me to try to control timing I had no control over, and the piece most coaches leave out when they tell you to expand your capacity. I also share why I'm splitting my personal brand from The Mom Founders Table and what that means for you as a listener. In This Episode Find out why our house took seven months to sell, and what the waiting taught me about the one thing I could control the whole time, which was how I responded. Learn why the urge to check every box as fast as possible is a pattern I see in almost every client I work with, and how I caught it in myself this year. Discover why holding more responsibility requires more tools, more resources, and more support, and how skipping that step is what leads capable women to break their own word. Hear where everything is headed, from KKAI and my next book to The Mom Founders Table becoming its own brand with the podcast, the mastermind, and The Mom Founders Table Live. Walk away with the question I now ask before I commit to anything big, and why answering it honestly would have saved me two canceled events.
