This Mother Means Business · 2026-09-10 · 19 min
What if work-life balance isn't about splitting your time evenly - but about being fully present wherever you are? So many women are chasing someone else's definition of balance, believing they have to divide themselves perfectly between business and family. But a meaningful business growth strategy isn't built on impossible standards. It's built on creating a business that allows you to be present for the moments that matter most. In this episode, Laura challenges the traditional idea of work-life balance and shares why she's completely changed her perspective after years of building a business while raising two young children. Rather than striving for equal time in every role, she explains why true balance comes from being fully engaged with whatever is in front of you - whether that's leading your business, spending time with your children, or taking care of yourself. Drawing from her own experiences, Laura opens up about the realities of entrepreneurship during motherhood, the guilt many women carry, and the practical changes she made to create more presence in both her business and family life.
