About this episode
Jenn and Sue discuss the realities of being a mom boss, highlighting the unique challenges and successes of women in this role.
In this episode of Mom Boss Chronicles, Jenn and Sue get real about what it truly takes to be a “mom boss.” Behind the highlight reels and hustle culture are long days, sleepless nights, sacrifices, self-doubt, and the constant balancing act of motherhood, business, and everyday life. The two reflect on the many incredible women they’ve interviewed over the years and how every single mom boss has her own unique way of making it work. Some lead with structure, some survive in chaos, some build empires quietly behind the scenes — but all of them show resilience, determination, and heart in their own way. Jenn and Sue dive into the trials and tribulations of building successful businesses while raising families, navigating burnout, grief, guilt, relationships, and the pressure to “do it all.” Through honest conversation, personal stories, and plenty of laughs, this episode is a reminder that there is no one-size-fits-all formula for success as a mom boss. Whether you’re thriving, struggling, rebuilding, or simply trying to make it through the week, this episode will leave you feeling seen, inspired, and reminded that your version of success is enough.
