You will want to read my new substack post. Head over to my stories to read the full article.

There’s been a lot of conversation lately about what motherhood is supposed to look like… how we show up, how we work, how we build.

And I’ve seen the conversations around Emma Grede and let me say this clearly: I respect what she’s built. That takes vision, discipline, and boldness.

But for me and my house… I want both.

I want to make my kids’ school lunch.
I want to be present.
I want to show up as their mama in the everyday moments that don’t get posted.

And I also want to build something meaningful.
I want success.
I want impact.

Will it take me longer? Maybe.
Because I’m not locked in 24/7.
Because I’ve chosen to be here, too.

But I also know this: what God has for me… it’s not going to pass me.

So while that path worked for her, I’m walking mine—with intention.
With grace.
With faith in His timing.

He trusted me with these children.
And I’m going to honor that.

And I’m also going to honor the gifts He placed inside of me.

Both can exist.
Both will exist.
And both will unfold exactly how they’re meant to.

Today I traveled with all 3 kids and no one wore a diaper! It’s called victory bc for the last 5 years I’ve been changing diapers! Now let’s get back to business!

It’s here. And I built it because I lived it.
Introducing the Believe & Ask Experience. A 2-hour in-person intensive for entrepreneurs who are ready to stop playing small.
Here’s the truth. Most events teach you to believe. Some teach you to hustle. But nobody is teaching you the full picture.
How to ask boldly, specifically, without apology.
How to ask God and actually trust Him with the answer.
How to ask your network in a way that opens doors.
How to surrender the outcome when every part of you wants to hold on.
Some of you have never learned to ask.
Some of you ask and then try to control everything that follows.
This room is for both of you.

Let me tell you something most people don’t know about me.

Asking has never been my problem.

I could walk into any room, ask for the meeting, ask for the partnership, ask for the opportunity. The ask is my superpower.

But here’s what I didn’t see coming……

I was asking boldly and then gripping the outcome with both hands. Trying to control every variable. Managing every detail. Trusting God with my mouth but not with my strategy.

And it ran me into the ground.

What I’ve learned and what I now know to be true is that there are two kinds of people.

The ones who don’t know how to ask.
And the ones who ask, but can’t let go.

Both of them are leaving something on the table.

I’m building a room for both of them.

More on Wednesday.

Wednesday!
