Slowing Down to Rise: How Motherhood Reshaped My Life as a Founder | Female Founded

Mon, 26 May 2025 12:08:00 -0000

In this deeply personal solo episode, I’m back on the mic after taking time away to experience the most transformative season of my life — pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and stepping into the beautiful, messy, powerful world of motherhood for the first time.

For the first time in my journey as a female founder, I allowed myself to slow down. To pause the hustle. To be still. And in that stillness, I found a new version of myself — softer, stronger, more aligned.

In this episode, I open up about:

How motherhood changed my rhythm, my mindset, and my definition of success
Why slowing down doesn’t mean stepping back
The deeper why behind building The Female Founder Academy
What real freedom means to me now (spoiler: it’s not just about income)
The wellness rituals keeping me grounded as I juggle business and baby life
What’s coming next — and how I’m building with more intention than ever before

If you're a fellow founder navigating a season of transition, growth, or simply craving permission to pause… this episode is for you.
