256. From New Mom to Founder: How Vale Siegrist Built Circular Club Without Burnout

What if the secret to building a successful business isn't going "all in"—it's building in a way that actually fits your life?

For years, entrepreneurs have been told that success requires sacrificing everything: your career, your family time, your financial security, and even your well-being. But what if there's another way?

In this episode of The Good Enough Mompreneur Podcast, Angela sits down with Vale Siegrist, founder of Circular Club, customer operations leader, and mom, who is proving that sustainable success doesn't have to come at the expense of your family or your mental health.

While balancing a full-time career and raising her young daughter, Vale is intentionally growing her business at a pace that aligns with her current season of life. Together, Angela and Vale discuss why more founders are rejecting hustle culture, choosing intentional growth over hypergrowth, and redefining what entrepreneurship can look like for working moms.

Whether you're just starting your business or wondering how to keep growing without burning out, this conversation will encourage you to embrace a path that's both profitable and sustainable.

In this episode, you'll learn:

✔️ Why you don't have to quit your job to build a successful business.
✔️ How to create a business that works around your family instead of competing with it.
✔️ Why slow, intentional growth can lead to long-term success.
✔️ The importance of protecting your mental health while building your business.
✔️ How to manage risk and validate your business idea before making major investments.
✔️ Practical ways to prioritize your time during different seasons of life.
✔️ Why building sustainably may be one of the smartest business decisions you'll ever make.
