Made for Mothers: A Podcast For Moms in Business
Welcome to the Made for Mothers Podcast, your go-to source for candid and relatable conversations about motherhood and entrepreneurship. Think of this show as your new mom friend, where we dive into all things marketing, branding, mindset, money, childcare, and growing your business while you navigate your roles as both CEO and Mom.
I'm your host, Mariah Stockman, and I wear all the hats, from being a boy mom to serving as a marketing mentor for mothers and running a 6-figure marketing agency. On top of all that, I'm the proud founder of the Made for Mothers Community.
This show is all about sharing real stories and practical strategies from fellow mother-run business owners. We’re diving into that pivotal moment in motherhood when we went back to work as a new mom and said, "Ooooh, it's like this now." but here's the catch, we're all there, all the time, no matter what season of motherhood we're in. Facing unexpected challenges like when our kids get sick or the childcare cancels, and moms are PROS at turning 'uh-oh' moments into 'ah-ha' solutions and THAT’s what we’re going to shine a light on.
So, what’s my story? Why Made for Mothers?
When I became a mom, I discovered firsthand the lack of support for the "I-have-a-new-baby-and need-to-answer-a-million-emails-and-have-no-childcare-and- work-i- still-really-love” situation. I soon realized how resourceful motherhood had made me and this path of serving moms naturally unfolded for me, and i am just so so glad you're here!
When I leapt to pivot into mentoring moms I had no idea what it would look like, I had no idea if it would work, but I just knew that this "season" I'm in, the one where my babies come first might be here to stay. I wanted to surround myself with women who are living the beautiful chaos of balancing motherhood and business, who understand that where early nap wake-ups, teething disruptions, and sleepless nights are part of the package... and on top of that, we're passionate and driven and bold and believe that yes, we can do both. If you just said a resounding "YES" tune in, cause you belong here and these are the stories we share.
The Made for Mothers Podcast is your space to connect with the real stories, strategies, and insights that bridge the gap between being a mom and a founder. So, grab your headphones, reheat your coffee, and let's go!
