204. Entrepreneurial Mom Guilt
Description
As moms, we often find ourselves grappling with guilt—whether it's about the food we feed our kids, their screen time, or the amount of outdoor play they get. Add entrepreneurship into the mix, and the guilt seems to multiply. Many women, striving to run successful businesses, share this common feeling of battling mom guilt.
Kristen explores the various layers of mom guilt especially as it intertwines with building a business.
Let’s look at a few highlights:
Recognizing that dreaming big doesn’t equate to escaping motherhood. Being a mom and having ambitious goals can coexist. It's crucial to recognize that learning is an investment and not always immediately reflected in tangible results. A common pitfall is measuring our worth solely by financial results and deciding whether our business is “worth it.” While it's noble to care deeply about our families, we must question whether mom guilt serves us positively or becomes a barrier to personal and professional growth. Reflect on your business and time management habits to identify areas for improvement and create more intentional, quality time.
In confronting mom guilt, we empower ourselves to build the dreams we're called to pursue. We can be great moms, friends, spouses, and successful business owners - it's not an either-or scenario. It's time to stop asking if it's worth it and start living the lives we were called to lead.
