Ep 89 Embracing Motherhood, Confidence, and Connection with Jo Ferrone

In this week’s Happy Thriving Mums Podcast, Amanda has a heartfelt conversation with business mentor and podcast host Jo Ferrone, founder of How DOES she do it?! - a community for female entrepreneurs to turn to when they're ready to truly thrive. With a guiding philosophy built on authenticity, support, and real connection, Jo has helped hundreds of women overcome imposter syndrome and grow in both business and life — with honesty about the struggles as well as the successes. From online and in-person networking events to the How DOES she do it?! Podcast, online membership and 1:1 mentoring Jo leads with kindness and empathy and offers wisdom, hope and inspiration for all she meets. Jo has always felt a powerful love of words; in all forms - music, speaking, writing, and reading too. A kind, thoughtful and sensitive soul who began songwriting in her teens and continued beyond. In the last decade, Jo started writing poetry and now has hundreds of poems which she is only recently braving to share. She’s been known to evoke an emotional response in her audience when she offers the right poem at the right time; to witness her words resonating with another kind soul literally makes her heart sing. In this episode, Amanda and Jo discuss:How Jo’s corporate background in publishing and marketing shaped her approach to motherhood and businessThe profound impact of pregnancy complications on her confidence and identityThe importance of creating safe, nurturing environments for women to connect and thrive professionally and personallyTechniques Jo uses to support women in overcoming nerves, imposter syndrome, and building confidence in networkingThe role of poetry and mindfulness practices in Jo’s self-care routineThe power of open conversations about mental health and challenging experiences in motherhoodPractical tips for balancing parenting, self-care, and entrepreneurshipRecognising the value in sharing vulnerabilities and celebrating small winsJo’s commitment to fostering inclusive, welcoming communities for women at all stages of their journeyResources & Links:Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s WaySoul Voice by Jo Ferrone InstagramHow Does She Do It?
