2026 Ins & Outs for Mom Entrepreneurs (Part 1)

We’re continuing the 2026 Ins & Outs series, and this two-part conversation is focused specifically on mom entrepreneurs.In Part 1, I’m joined by Bailey Gordon, founder of The Mom Boss Meetup, to talk about what’s shifting beneath the surface for moms who are building businesses while raising kids... especially when neurodivergence, burnout, and changing capacity are part of the picture.This episode centers on the early and middle parts of the journey: realizing the old ways aren’t working, releasing hustle culture, and learning how to build community and business models that actually fit motherhood.We name what’s feeling heavy, what’s no longer sustainable, and what mom entrepreneurs are allowed to do differently in 2026, without forcing clarity or big next steps.Key Themes in Part 1Why motherhood fundamentally changes how business must be structuredHow neurodivergence shows up in entrepreneurship and leadershipThe emotional cost of comparing yourself to your pre-kid selfShifting from big, polished rooms to smaller, intentional community spacesLetting ideas and offers ripen instead of constantly adding moreBuilding community without burning yourself out in the process2026 Ins & Outs for Mom Entrepreneurs (Part 1)INCapacity-based decisionsSeasonal business rhythmsSmaller, more intentional community spacesHonoring energy instead of pushing throughLetting growth happen at the pace of real lifeOUTHustle culture that ignores caregiving realitiesNap-time-only work expectationsComparing yourself to who you were before kidsOverproducing to prove legitimacyForcing momentum before it’s readyWhat’s Coming in Part 2In Part 2, we move from reflection into application.We’ll cover:A rapid-fire 2026 Ins & Outs roundWhat women without kids can do to better support mom entrepreneursDifferences across motherhood seasonsBoundaries, delegation, guilt, and asking for helpHow support at home impacts business capacityLinksFollow along with Bailey & the Mom Boss Meetup HERELearn more about Olympia Boss Society HEREApply for the She Blooms Spring Retreat HERELoved this episode? Make sure to subscribe so you never miss a conversation inside The Boss Society Podcast!
