How Mom Founders Do Big, Scary, Audacious Things

When was the last time someone asked you what you want to build — not how you juggle it all, not how you manage it while raising kids, but what you actually want to build? In this solo episode of Between Meetings & Motherhood, host Alexa Starks gets into it: what doing big shit actually means, why your goal isn’t big enough if it doesn’t scare you, and why the biggest things are never done alone. In this episode: * What “doing big shit” actually means — and why revenue and hustle have nothing to do with it * The test: if saying your goal out loud doesn’t give you a pit in your stomach, it’s not big enough * Why moms are constantly given permission to be ambitious — but only a little bit — and why that’s holding us back * How Alexa went from maternity leave coaching to building a global media company to shift the cultural narrative around motherhood * Why working backwards from a scary goal is the only real business strategy * Why the biggest goals are never achieved alone — and why competition is the wrong frame entirely * The Mothered Founders Club: a global community for mom founders to do big shit together — collaborations, referrals, workshops, quarterly goal sprints, and rooms full of women who actually get it * How to join the waitlist today as a founding member (link in description) Your homework: write down your big shit goal — the real one, the scary one — and send it to Alexa on Instagram or LinkedIn.
