Описание: Motherhood and entrepreneurship—two worlds that often collide in a beautiful, chaotic symphony. On the Empowered and Unapologetic Podcast, Veronica Cisneros sat down with Jen Morris, founder of Renegade Motherhood, to discuss how moms can build businesses without losing their sanity—or their sense of humor. Spoiler alert: You don’t need to do it all, but you do need to do it your way.

Summary
You’re in a season, and acknowledging it can be relieving.
You can’t do it all; outsourcing is key.
Burnout often comes from misalignment in business.
Self-doubt is common; being vulnerable can help.
Creating a community for moms in business is essential.
The formula for success includes passion, consistency, community, and timing.
Timing is never perfect for starting a business or having kids.
Embrace the Season You’re In
Feeling like you’re spinning plates and none of them are staying up? Jen’s advice is simple but powerful: recognize the season you’re in.

“You’re in a season,” Jen said. “Sometimes it’s just acknowledging that can really be a little bit of a relief instead of just pushing up against it.”

Jen shared her own story of trying to fit the square peg of traditional business models into the round hole of her new life as a mom. She automated, funneled, and hustled—but hated every minute of it. That’s when she had her wake-up call: most moms don’t start businesses to be miserable.

Key takeaway? Stop comparing your behind-the-scenes mess to someone else’s highlight reel. Build a business that fits your life, not the other way around.

Outsource, Simplify, and Own Your Lane
Let’s be real: you can’t do it all. And trying to will only send you hurtling toward burnout faster than your toddler can destroy a clean room. Jen’s approach? Ruthless prioritization and the art of saying “no.”

“I’m in a season of outsourcing a lot,” Jen admitted. “It’s hard because it’s not always going to be done the way I would have done it. But at some point, you have to ask: What do I actually enjoy doing? What am I good at? Everything else—outsource it or let it go.”

Veronica chimed in, sharing her own “aha” moment of scaling back:

“Ultimately, what do you want right now? For me, it’s my therapy practice. When I started focusing on just that, it was like feeding a plant. Growth became inevitable.” – Veronica Cisneros

Takeaway: Let go of the Instagram-perfect ideal. Whether it’s dishes in the sink or your social media strategy, focus on what matters most and give yourself permission to drop the rest.

Build Your Tribe and Bet on Yourself
Motherhood can feel isolating, and so can entrepreneurship. But according to Jen, the magic happens when you find your people.

“Motherhood is isolating, and being a business owner is isolating. But when you surround yourself with people who get it, it’s like magic. Moms wearing babies, brainstorming marketing strategies—there’s nothing like it.” – Jen Morris

Veronica agreed: “You understand the sleepless nights, the imposter syndrome, and making decisions through the fog of doubt. When you connect with other moms, you don’t just grow your business—you grow yourself.”

Jen’s Renegade Motherhood community offers exactly that: a place where moms can come as they are, whether they’re in yoga pants or power suits. It’s not about perfection; it’s about showing up.

You Don’t Need a Business to Start
Jen left us with this nugget of gold: “You don’t need a business plan to start. Passion, consistency, community, and timing—that’s the formula. When you get the proverbial gut punch of inspiration, don’t wait for everything to be perfect. Just start.”

For moms ready to step into their entrepreneurial dreams, Jen recommends starting with community. Whether it’s a networking event, an online group, or even a weekly hobby, shaking up your routine can reignite your spark.

“Start right now. Had you waited for everything to be ‘ready,’ you wouldn’t have served the people you’re serving today.” – Veronica Cisneros
