Let's face it. There is a lot of noise out there. Everywhere you turn there is another program trying to teach you a new strategy to beat the algorithm and have your next 6-figure launch. But what if I told you the key to your success can't be found in the next strategy or system but in you laying a solid foundation into your business infrastructure? 

Now more than ever your business foundation matters. When the chaos is high and we’re faced with new situations, having a solid foundation will set us above the competition. Inside my programs, we focus on six guiding principles that are the fundamentals of our business. We've found that when these are in place, the process of uncovering your own unique voice (which is the key to standing out in the crowd!) becomes second nature. We also believe that we are here to do a lifetime’s work, not a season, so laying a strong foundation is the key to having everything we want. 

On top of that, focusing on these principles gives us clarity on who we are and how we serve the world in only the way WE can. And when we have that clarity, the confidence comes easy and this business becomes fun! 

And isn't that the point? We think so!

I know in times like these it can be challenging to release anxiety and fear over what might happen, but truth be told this is where you get to put all of those tools you've been learning by reading the books and listening to the podcasts and going to the events into practice.

In early 2014, after nearly a decade in the corporate world, Women& Inc founder Lindsay Roselle sought out a group of successful, supportive women to connect with as mentors to help her generate ideas and brainstorm solutions to challenges related to her small business. Realizing that few opportunities for that type of connection already existed outside of a personal network, Lindsay had the initial idea for what would later become Women& Inc. 

By Spring 2015, Lindsay had shared the idea with several other entrepreneurial women in Fort Collins who all expressed similar desires for connection, so the first event - Women& Whiskey - was planned for late March. Expecting 15-20 women to come, almost 90 showed up, and the organization was officially born. Since then, Women& Inc has hosted connection events every other month focused on bringing women together to learn more about each other, share advice and ideas, and get educated about craft spirits at Social.

In this episode of Work Hard Mom Hard, Lindsay and Kari share their top advice for new moms, a shocking statistic for women-owned businesses (that we can change), why women need to be in a room together, why you shouldn’t play it safe in your businesses, and much more. This episode is a lighthouse in the storm for all you business owners and moms. Fellow boy moms unite!

Katie Saffert joins the second-timers club on Work Hard Mom Hard! Katie and Kari discuss how events and community have shaped their businesses over the last year, why being in the proximity of people’s dreams matter, and how you can better connect with your tribe.

September is about momentum on the podcast, and events can create major momentum for your business and life. Katie describes what building community and being a leader looks like and shares a special deal for listeners to attend her upcoming Build Your Brand Workshop for females only!

This episode will bring encouragement and inspiration to all types of business owners.

Katie is a brand strategist and visionary who has cultivated a community for female entrepreneurs. She has created this community to make space for female-owned brands to be seen and heard for who they are and consult them on how to show up for what they do.  

After being an entrepreneur for 12 years, prior to opening Hatched Collective, she realized there was a lack of available resources for how to build a community and how to build a business. Her goal is to inspire women to step into their power and become the leader within their own community.

Elizabeth Hartke has a superpower. She helps people get back to their original dream. Elizabeth helps successful businesses, brands, influencers and creatives scale their businesses and their lives. Along the way with a successful corporate career, she paid close attention to the “successful” entrepreneurs who were just slaves to their industry or unfulfilled and underpaid. And she saw the ones who built a huge following or massive wealth, but they hardly knew their kids, had their health or remembered why they started in the first place.

Elizabeth went a different way, and along with her husband and three young kids, has created a 7-figure life with integrity to their original dream: build generational wealth, make a massive impact, create freedom. Now she is here to help others! With her top-rated podcast, Scaling Up, to her masterminds, events and one-on-one coaching, she is fiercely committed to helping more people get back to their original dream through scaling their impact, income and independence.

Katie Dragos is a mindset and personal growth coach, nutrition mentor, full-time marketer, triathlete, marathoner, and wife and mom of 2 extremely active boys. Currently working full-time in marketing, she has combined her love of creativity and helping others with a focus on getting busy mamas out of the hustle and into their own power with a one-on-one coaching program called “Unleash Your Awesome.”

Working in a hectic marketing and television corporate environment for over 16 years, Katie knows the struggle of trying to make work and life feel balanced, healthy, and fun.

She co-founded the Anne Arundel Fit Moms group, and together they host free weekly mom meetups and mom’s nights out. This positive mom’s community has grown to over 1,000 members in the Maryland area.

Through empathy and one-on-one conversations, she is passionate about helping other busy mamas identify the missing link to finding their joy, manage their time more efficiently, and do less in order to achieve more. Katie and Kari discuss finding the perfect routine with active kids, receiving feedback positively, and how to combat overwhelm and anxiety.

I used to be the girl who would have one too many tequilas at a party and tell all my friends to quit their jobs and follow their dreams. I would map the whole trajectory of their business and tell them how amazing they would be. Naturally, they would just laugh at me and then tell me I was crazy. But I loved my naivety and willingness to dream.

Now after having been an “entrepreneur” for four years and have practiced what I preach, I’m singing a different tune.

That doesn’t mean I think you shouldn’t quit your day job, but I do believe there are some fundamental things you should focus on before you do. And in this episode, I dive into them!

Highlights for this mindset:

1:25 - The truth of the Instagram quote cards

3:49 - How I got lucky when I started as a coach

Mandy Sciacchitano is a certified life coach and speaker who specializes in helping over-giving, service-driven women avoid burnout and love themselves and others better through boundaries, worthiness and personal power work.

After years of struggling with social anxiety and perfectionism due to deeply rooted insecurities, she is passionate about seeing other women step out of fear and shame and discover and embody their power to use their gifts to serve others in a way that is deeply self-honoring and self-nourishing.  

Adopting the mantra “get out of your head and into your body,” Mandy believes that our perfectionism, lack of confidence, and obsession with achievement as a society is because we are disconnected from our souls and intuitions. She uses tools like breathwork, meditation, journaling, cacao, and mindful movement to eliminate patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and not feeling good enough and help women come home to themselves and live their most vibrant, confident lives.

This is a magical conversation where Mandy provides numerous tips and actionable advice to discover your values, beat the comparison game, and come back to your identity and intuition.

Highlights of our conversation:

3:53 - What Mandy learned between who you are and who you want to be

I come to you from my business retreat with Amber Lilyestrom in beautiful Portsmouth, New Hampshire (get to the Sea Coast!). On this Mindset Monday, I discuss how you can live life fuller, bigger, and in a more sacred way by embracing both your Brilliance AND your BS. By embracing both parts of your life, you can dive deeper into the three-dimensional space of seeing humans at a more intimate level, knowing their dreams and being able to breathe life into their dreams and your own. As Amber Lilyestrom says, “If the dream is in you, it is for you.”

Highlights for the mindset:

0:44 - The value of coaching, mentors, and deep clarity

2:15 - You are not allowed to cry or show vulnerability

3:54 - The golden thread that goes through BS and Brilliance

6:31 - The fear of being "other than"

7:24 - Give yourself permission to do what you can, right now

9:58 - The #1 step to bring Brilliance into your life

10:56 - Powerful foundations to create a million-dollar business

11:53 - My greatest strength

Corina joins the Work Hard Mom Hard Podcast family again to be the first in the second-timers club. Her last podcast was one of the most shared on Instagram and of my favorites, so we are back. In this episode, Corina and I discuss why it’s important to let your motherhood through, why you should get off the “hot mess express,” the danger of the 24/7 hustle, and more!

Corina Tripon - the red-headed mother hustler and mindset coach - decided to take a risk on herself and pursue her entrepreneurial dream of running a premier coaching business and creating massive impact. And she now gets to empower women from all around the globe with the same mindset coaching and gift aligning processes to help them pursue a business and life they love.

Corina spent years in operations management and coaching helping multi-million-dollar professionals organize their business, smash through their limiting mindsets, and scale their personal and professional growth. She saw network marketing chics taking control of their own success and dictating income on their own terms, and she just knew deep down she had something even bigger to give to the universe.

Highlights of our conversation:

4:24 - Advice for attempting a new, scary action

6:42 - Not apologizing for being a working mom

10:19 - The power of not being a guru

13:33 - Metrics that matter (hint: it's not Instagram followers)

15:36 - An easy way not to play the comparison game on social media

16:52 - Why it's important to get off the "hot mess express"

25:00 - Gaining confidence (and Kari's #1 dream guest)

28:35 - Corina comes face-to-face with her own hot mess

33:36 - There are no boundaries to entrepreneurship unless you create them

35:58 - Don't glorify the 24/7 hustle (don't should all over yourself)

36:48 - A better way to set your goals

42:07 - The line between ego and self-belief

45:58 - What are you most excited in your business right now?

52:15 - Be open to collaboration

As many of you know, I’ve been going through a massive shift over the last month or two. After losing my cousin, I took some much-needed time off from work and social media and just allowed myself the space to really be where my feet are.

There was so much I learned from creating that space. I was able to re-calibrate a lot of the things I was working on, and most importantly, just realign how I was spending my time. I was able to tune into the subtle pieces of feedback I was receiving from my clients and the people surrounding me. And ultimately what I realized is that I need to make some changes.

I started to realize that the mastermind that I had created wasn’t the right container for my clients to be working in. I asked for even deeper feedback from my clients and my audience and my mentors. I was willing to say “Hold up! Something doesn’t feel right here.” and actually take a hard look at what would feel right. And so I decided, in the middle of the program, to change everything.

In this episode, I go into the depths of what it looks and feels like in the middle of a pivot. As you can imagine there was a lot of fear changing my mind but knowing that it was coming from a space of truly wanting to get my clients the results they are seeking is what makes the fear, the uncertainty, and everything else so worth it!

Highlights:

1:08 - Why it’s time for a massive pivot

5:46 - Reevaluating your plan

7:07 - Surprising outcome from social media detox

9:45 - Creating the life you want

13:21 - Create the space to hear feedback

14:18 - Be brave enough to act and willing to assess feedback

Bleary eyed with newborns and messy hair, yearning for connection and parenting help, Lara and Jenn found themselves (and met each other!) in a new mom group. After 3 months of conversation about the angst surrounding tummy time and Velcro swaddles, they took their conversation to a more personal level over red wine with their kids in ergos.

Gradually, the conversations increased to nighttime texts over teething, sleep challenges, and how to navigate the transition to solids. As Jenn and Lara began to get their footing together in their new role as moms, they created the space for real conversation over adult dinner to finally talk about themselves, as women and as friends, not just how they were moms. Over this dinner, they both realized that there was a need and space for something big and exciting in each of their lives. Lara was ready to pivot her business away from the corporate world, and Jenn was looking for greater connection and honest conversation within the greater Mom community.

From there the idea to create a podcast and a supportive, authentic and thriving Mom community was born. This podcast is the story and lessons learned so far from Generation.Mom.

Highlights of our conversation:

4:05 - The origins of Generation.Mom

8:20 - Why aren't more talking about modern motherhood?

14:44 - What does the Generation.Mom community look like?

18:02 - The top themes that Jenn and Lara see in their community

22:19 - The next evolution for this community

25:13 - Words of encouragement for the mother in the middle of it

27:24 - Life as a mother and businesswoman - what it looks like right now

30:58 - How Lara and Jenn managed to act on their idea

34:02 - Deciding on the most important parts to work on

36:36 - Tips on creating a thriving Facebook group

42:44 - What are Jenn and Lara most excited about

46:02 - Pushing past the fear of sharing your message

51:04 - The future for Generation.Mom

53:19 - Managing the frustration of motherhood and business

56:12 - Everything is feedback

57:20 - Advice we wish we had from the beginning

1:00:33 - What does success look like to you?

Some of you may or may not have noticed that I took a last week completely off. After the passing of my cousin, I decided to take a break from social media and work. It was a much-needed pause on almost everything in my life, except of course, for mothering. I threw myself into it as much as I possibly could.

I had been feeling the pull to take a social media break, specifically Instagram, for a while now. But I had a lot of fear in pausing as Instagram is a huge part of my business. But for some time now I had been feeling like it was getting super noisy and I was having a hard time really sharpening my message and utilizing the platform and the little influence that I must really make a difference. 

So, I took a break. A much needed one. And I learned a lot during this time, but I wanted to break down my three biggest learnings I had.

Highlights:

0:46 - A word of gratitude

2:35 - Lesson 1: Notice

8:01 - Lesson 2: Space

11:00 - Lesson 3: Fun

15:08 - The ultimate goal

Last Wednesday Facebook and Instagram crashed for the day, and I have to say it felt incredibly freeing. I love using social media as a tool to grow my business, but the reality is that it doesn’t always feel like that’s happening. Instead I feel like I’m just getting more noise in my head about how I should be running my business and parenting and dressing myself and ALL THE NOISE!! And for the day I let go of the feeling of needing to check my stuff and just hung out with my kids and thought about how I would get my medicine to more people if Facebook and Instagram weren’t around.

And that got me thinking...if I am feeling like this then there MUST be more people out there feeling this way too. And what would I say to my bestie if she was telling me that all this noise was in her head? I would look her in the eye and say DELETE the app and start creating your life and business without all the noise and remember, you aren’t doing it wrong! Stop second guessing that amazing idea of yours and just start asking people if they think it’s awesome too!

Highlights for this episode:

1:28 - Whether in parenting, business - ANYTHING - you are...

2:22 - Things outside my control show me something I've been craving

3:36 - Try doing this with people's opinions

4:20 - There is no failure - only feedback

I had the honor of sharing my story this past weekend at The Bliss Project. It was such a beautiful space full of women - 500 of them - who were ready to let go of the things that were holding them back from living an incredibly abundant life.

I shared some of the traumas that have happened to me over the past few years and how I’ve moved through them. I recently shared on this podcast my biggest lessons while navigating these traumas. My talk was so well received, and it was surprising how many women could find themselves in my story.

But after I spoke, I had probably 20 women come up to me after and ask, “How do you forgive people when they’ve done something so hurtful to you?”

I heard so many stories and situations of real trauma, and I could see the pain in these women’s eyes. Yes, pain from the actual situation, but more so pain from just wanting to move on and not really knowing how to.

When I really sat with it and asked myself how I forgave and moved on, the realization that I had was that I was able to remove me from the equation. I know that other people's actions and words have nothing to do with me. They are just projections of their own insecurities. By taking myself out of the equation, I’m able to remove my emotion from it and allow myself the space to see things a bit more clearly. It doesn’t take away the pain of the action that was done, but it allowed me the space to move on.

Highlights for this episode:

0:58 - The truth behind my personal meditation time

2:16 - What does forgiveness have to do with mindset?

2:52 - I recap The Bliss Project weekend

5:08 - How do you start to forgive?

7:06 - A personal, family example to help you see your story in my own

9:58 - One mindset to help you move towards forgiveness

11:52 - An invitation

I’ve had conversations with a LOT of potential clients over the past few years and the one thing that most of them have in common is that each person is searching for a breakthrough. Each person is waiting for that lightning bolt of inspiration and motivation to hit them and propel them like a rocket ship forward.

Well friends, I have news for you and some of you might not like it.

It just doesn’t happen that way.

The people who actually breakthrough are the ones who understand that the responsibility is on them to create their own breakthrough. Coaches, courses, masterminds, books and podcasts are ALL going to be there to help encourage and facilitate, but the responsibility ultimately lies with you.

Highlights for this episode:

0:43 - Are you waiting for a breakthrough? A checklist

There has been a lot of talk in the WHMH community about fear lately. I think so many people came into 2019 ready to really start tackling their goals and strategizing about how to make them happen, but once they started moving, ALL THE THINGS came rushing back in. The excuses, procrastination, anxiety, anger, guilt, frustration, etc. You name it, these nasty feelings started creeping in.

Some of you are quick to recognize that it’s just an old pattern wanting to hold onto you and keep you small, while others are letting it take you out. Nope. I’m not going to let that happen this time.

The FASTEST way to bust through this wall is to identify what you must believe about yourself in order to make it happen. These patterns are just there to show you that there is something uncomfortable ahead, and it’s a new space. So the only way to build your courage muscle is to change your belief.

Highlights for this episode:

1:00 - The why behind Mindset Monday's

2:21 - How fear hides itself

5:32 - How you can break the walls of your fear

7:27 - Every next level of your life will demand a different you

Tania Jane Moraes-Vaz is a woman of many hats, personally and professionally. Born with an entrepreneurial spirit, Tania knew the 9-5 grind is no place for her free soul. A creative maven and visionary at heart, Tania is a three-times best-selling author, founder of The PCOS Thrive Collective, and Fleeting Moments By Jane Photography & Creative. She also is Developmental and Managing Editor at Golden Brick Road Publishing House, and host of The Holistic Warrior Life Podcast. Her PCOS diagnosis seven years ago and her journey into motherhood two years ago catalyzed her first steps into what would become a multifaceted business.

Her PCOS "doc"nosis as she lovingly calls it, forced her to create and design a whole new lifestyle for herself built on a foundation of being passionate, positive, fierce, kind, and relentless about wanting change for oneself on a holistic level. Through her wellness journey, she noticed the sheer lack of awareness around women’s hormonal health and realized her purpose and passion was to spread PCOS awareness by mentoring and empowering women through 1:1 mentorship and mastermind programs to live a holistic lifestyle through mindset and lifestyle changes.

She has been featured on multiple podcasts, on Radio Mango Toronto, published in Synergy Magazine, and is a featured artist in the 2019 R.A.W Natural Born Artists - Toronto "Reflect" Showcase. The way to her heart is through some delicious food, a cup of chai, some good books, photography, and stationery!

So much of my client work has nothing to do with business.

Creating a strategy is the easy work.

What becomes challenging is the actual expansion. People don’t realize that becoming the person who can create successful programs and lasting success requires you to look in every crevice and corner of your life. From your relationship with yourself, your spouse, your friends, your family, your business partners, your past, your vision and pretty much everything in between.

It’s not easy work. Behind the tiny squares on Instagram, it’s not always pretty work. And some days, like the day this photo was captured, there are lots of tears (https://www.instagram.com/p/BsrW3TUhOOu/). But take it from me, this work is so incredibly worth it.

Facing your fears, facing the gaps in your belief, facing your past can inform your future and you can create from it an empowered and inspiring space. This work is so necessary.

So to all of you who came into 2019 HOT and are now feeling the energetic whiplash, I see you, I’m with you, and more importantly, I want you to keep pushing through. Take it from me, what’s on the other side is MAGIC.

Highlights for this episode:

1:41 - Be aware when you say you're ready to up level

3:03 - Look your old patterns in the eye and engage!

4:12 - (A special guest)

4:34 - Questions to ask yourself to engage the hard

Last week we talked about changing our expectations on what we can accomplish during the holiday season. Making small changes to our schedule and to our ideas of what success looks like not only creates more spaciousness in our lives and business but allows our days to be filled with more joy.

What if we apply that same concept to our relationships? What if we let go of how we think people should show up and just appreciated them for who they are, what they do, and the role they play in our lives? How much lighter does that make you feel simply thinking about it? And what do you think happens when we expect NOTHING? We get SO much more than what we even wanted.

The transition to the holiday season seems to come on fast and furious. We go from finally settling into our routines with the kids and school and business to a swift time change followed by holiday breaks and being inundated with excitement and chaos. Even for someone who doesn’t manage multiple schedules, clients and businesses this time of year can be extremely stressful, but layer on all the chaos that we as working mama’s have and it’s EXTRA.

So, dear friends, how do we manage it? My suggestion - lower our expectations of being able to get it all done.

1. Prioritize the 1-3 things that you need get done in the week.

2. Adjust your schedule.

3. Adjust what your idea of success looks like this week.

4. Turn your expectation into appreciation.

Follow these simple steps to a more spacious and joyful holiday season!

Highlights for this episode:

2:26 - Why am I acting like this version of Kari?

6:46 - The questions to ask when the holiday tries to break you

This is the first episode of my new podcast, Work Hard / Mom Hard. In the inaugural episode, I share my experience growing up as a minister's daughter, why I started working at 13, how I hustled in my corporate career until finally realizing what I thought I always wanted wasn’t what I actually wanted.

After a life-changing decision to ditch my corporate career I found myself raising 3 babies while trying to get 2 businesses off the ground. I was hanging on by a thread and after having some deep and insightful conversations with successful Moms who had already “made it” not only was I given the insight and energy I needed to keep going, but I was also given the idea to launch this podcast and start having that same conversation with all of you.

We will use this space to dive deep on giving you tips, tools inspiration and motivation to help you get out of your head and into action, so you can bring your vision to life!
