322: The Truth About Scaling a Business With Limited Hours (and Little Kids) with Shanna Skidmore

You’re in for such a treat with today’s episode! I’ve brought on the wonderful Shanna Skidmore to talk about something that’s so close to my heart: how to work less, mom more, and still hit your goals. In this episode, she shares why you don’t need a nap time hustle, a 40-hour workweek, or a “passive income” empire to run a profitable business as a mom. In fact, she’s pulling back the curtain on how she built (and rebuilt) a multi-six-figure business while raising two kids and working just 15–20 hours a week. From burning out before she even had babies to doubling down on her core philosophy of defining enough, this episode is full of mindset shifts, financial strategies, and practical systems that have helped her grow revenue without losing her sanity (or her Sundays). If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly behind, or you’re struggling to balance business growth with motherhood, this episode will leave you feeling encouraged, grounded, and equipped with practical steps to create your own version of success.
