162: My Birth Story + The Beautiful Chaos of Being a Mom of 3 and CEO
“The goal is not balance. The goal is to be present where you're needed most.” –Victoria Marcouillier
Another girl has joined the BrandWell Designs girl gang! Over the summer, Victoria welcomed her third daughter, McKenna Roads, and this episode is all about her beautiful birth story. Within this episode, Victoria is sharing all the highs and lows, from navigating the switch from traditional OB care to a midwife group, to navigating labor without an epidural for some time, to the sweet and special moments of introducing her newborn to her big sisters.
Victoria will also be answering questions that listeners submitted including how this maternity leave looked versus what she expected, how she navigated visitors during those early days, and how McKenna’s name came to be.
This story isn’t just about birth, it’s about balance, priorities, and the courage to step back. Victoria reflects on what it’s been like to run BrandWell while fully embracing maternity leave, and how years of building strong systems and a reliable team have given her the freedom to be present with her family. She opens up about the surprising ease of letting go, the lessons learned in scaling a business that works without her, and why she believes the goal isn’t balance—it’s being present where you’re needed most.
If you’ve ever wondered how to honor both your role as a mother and your role as a CEO, this episode will leave you encouraged, empowered, and reminded that building a business with intention gives you the freedom to savor life’s sweetest seasons that go by in a blink of an eye.
