The Messaging Trap and How it's Slowing Your Growth

The Boss Mom Podcast

At BossMom, we’re normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family.

In this powerful episode of the Boss Mom Podcast, Dana Malstaff dives deep into a surprising truth: your constant search for the perfect messaging might actually be what’s holding you back. If you’ve ever felt the rush of an a-ha moment, only to realize days (or weeks) later that you still haven’t launched, posted, or sold anything, this one’s for you.

Dana unpacks the concept of the messaging trap, the real cost of overplanning, and how your finite motivational energy is getting used up before you ever hit publish. She shares how smart tools, especially AI, can help you skip the overwhelm and finally move from clarity to conversion. If you’re tired of being stuck in strategy mode, this episode is your permission slip to simplify and scale.
