140. From Tech Exec to Building a Wellness Empire with Barbara Mighdoll

This week on the podcast, I’m joined by entrepreneur, founder, mom, and absolute visionary Barbara Mighdoll and this conversation is so much more than business.  Barbara shares the behind-the-scenes story of leaving her successful tech career to build what is now becoming one of the Bay Area’s fastest-growing wellness brands: MNT Studio. We talk about the courage it takes to pivot careers, building businesses while raising young kids, navigating uncertainty, creating community in a post-COVID world, and why women need spaces that support both wellness and connection. Barbara also opens up about: starting her side business while still working full-time the reality of entrepreneurship behind the scenes building with your spouse autoimmune health and stress why “action creates clarity” and the power of taking pauses before making big life decisions We also dive into the vision behind MNT Studio’s “wellness social club” model combining Pilates, co-working, childcare, sauna, and community all under one roof and why this concept is resonating so deeply right now. This episode is incredibly inspiring for anyone dreaming of building something meaningful, making a career pivot, redefining success, or craving a more connected way of living. If you’ve been feeling the pull toward something bigger, this conversation will leave you feeling expanded, energized, and reminded that you do not need to see the full staircase to take the next step.  📲 Connect with BarbaraInstagram Substack MNT STUDIO 📲 Connect with MagaliJoin the Unlock Your Vitality COMMUNITYInstagramSubstack
