In this episode of Ginger Biz, I’m joined by Michaela Dunn, a multi-passionate mompreneur, business consultant, and real-life pivot expert. Together, we dive into a candid conversation about navigating the twists and turns of motherhood, entrepreneurship, and everything in between. If you’ve ever felt torn between your business and your family, or unsure how to pivot without feeling like you’re “quitting,” this episode will feel like a warm hug and a breath of fresh air.
We talk about how Michaela’s journey from teen photographer to multi-business owner and mom of three has taught her the power of letting go, embracing change, and giving herself grace. We also swap stories about balancing kids with client work, managing life when it gets messy, and how both of us have learned that pivoting isn’t a failure, it’s a strength.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why pivoting in business (and life) doesn’t mean failure
- How to give yourself permission to redefine success at every stage
- The importance of honoring your capacity, especially as a mom
- What it looks like to take your business from full-time to passion project (without guilt!)
- Tips for embracing imperfection and building a business that fits your life
This episode is a little different, but it’s one you won’t want to miss. It’s an uplifting and relatable conversation that will leave you inspired and ready to tackle whatever comes next. Don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and share!
