The Unmuted CEO
🎙️ You've been building your business in silence long enough, sis.
Welcome to The Unmuted CEO Podcast—where mom entrepreneurs stop second-guessing, start showing up, and finally get seen for the powerhouse they already are.
I'm Tammy Maynard—mom of six (yes, twins included!), visibility coach, and the woman who turned years of feeling invisible into a thriving business. And sis, if you've ever stared at that "Go Live" button for 20 minutes, rewritten the same caption seven times, or wondered if you'll EVER feel confident enough to show your face online—I see you. Because I've been you.
Here's what you'll find inside every episode:
Real talk about building visibility on YOUR terms—no hustle culture, no "rise and grind" BS, just strategies that work WITH your life, not against it.
Behind-the-scenes of what it actually takes to show up consistently when you're juggling kids, a business, and trying to remember if you ate lunch.
Mindset shifts that turn "I'm not ready" into "watch me work."
Practical systems for batch content creation, time management, and staying visible without burning out.
Guest conversations with women who've walked this path and come out the other side—thriving, not just surviving.
This isn't another podcast telling you to do more. This is permission to show up as you are, build confidence one post at a time, and finally turn that quiet potential into the seen, paid impact you've been dreaming about.
Whether you're a brand new entrepreneur or you've been lurking in the shadows for years, it's time to get unmuted. Your voice matters. Your business matters. And sis—you were made to be seen.
New episodes drop every Monday—because your next level of confidence can't wait.

From Overwhelmed To Visible: Five Tools That Make Content Creation Easy
Overwhelm isn’t a tech problem—it’s a workflow problem. I’m pulling back the curtain on the exact five-tool stack that keeps my content consistent without a studio, a $3,000 camera, or a full production team. If you’re tired of stalling at “record,” stuck on editing, or second-guessing your graphics, this is your map from idea to published post that fits real life.
We start by fixing the root issue: lost ideas. A simple capture habit in Notes or Google Docs turns random thoughts, hooks, and titles into a bank you can actually use. Then we move those ideas through a light content hub in Notion or Trello—no complicated systems, just a clear pipeline from draft to record to publish. That visual flow halves decision fatigue and makes batching feel natural.
Next, I share the editing shortcut that saves hours: CapCut. With auto-captions for people watching on mute, quick trims, reusable templates, and instant resizing for Reels, TikTok, and Shorts, you get clean, watchable videos without learning pro software. To stand out in busy feeds, we lean on Canva to build brand consistency with thumbnails, episode covers, and carousels using locked-in colors and fonts. Finally, scheduling with Meta Business Suite or Later keeps your posts going out while you work, parent, or rest, turning consistency into your superpower.
By the end, you’ll have a friction-free toolkit: capture, organize, edit, brand, and schedule. No perfection required—just a plan you’ll follow and tools that respect your time. If this helped you breathe easier, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review. Tell me which tool you’re setting up this week, and let’s keep your voice unmuted.
Every review, every share, every message helps us reach and raise up more unmuted women.

Hey sis, welcome back to the Unmuted CEO Podcast, the space where we help entrepreneurs get out of their head, into their voice, and unapologetically seen in these internet streets. I'm your host, Tammy, your confidence and visibility coach. And today, we're talking about something that keeps a lot of you stuck and overwhelmed. The tech. You've got the message, you've got the ideas, but the minute it's time to record, edit, or post, you're like, yeah, no ma'am, that's too much. Since breathe. Today I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing five free or low-cost apps that help me create content faster, edit without wanting to throw my phone, and show up as a confident boss without hiring a full production team. Grab your notebook, your coffee, or that basket of laundry you've been avoiding. We're about to simplify this whole thing. The real problem isn't tech, it's overwhelm. You know what I hear all the time? Tammy. I would create more. I would post more. I would show up more if I understood all this tech. But most of the time, it's not that you can't learn it. It's that no one ever showed you simple, mom life-friendly tools. You don't need a$3,000 camera, studio lights, fancy software that takes six hours to figure out. You need simple, repeatable, done. So let's walk through the tools that helped me do that. The first tool is basic but powerful. A simple notes app or Google Dogs. Before the camera ever comes out, I'm brained up in ideas, parking hooks and titles, dropping in phrases that hit my spirit during the day. This is how you capture ideas before mom brain erases them. Stop sitting down to record with a blank mind. Turn random thoughts into actual episodes and reels. Talk to listener. Since you don't have a content problem. You have a capture problem. Start by respecting your ideas enough to give them a home. Next up, you need a simple content hub, not a complicated system. I love using something like Notion or Trello. Any visual board where I can see ideas, scripts, empty, edit, or stick. So instead of everything living in your head, you have a visual flow. Idea, draft, record, edit, post or repurpose. This alone cuts your overwhelm in half because you're not asking, what should I post every single day? You already know what's next. Now, let's talk about editing. If the word editing makes you want to go laid out, listen. CapCut is your best friend. With CapCut, you can trim your clips with a swipe, add captions automatically, add simple transitions and sounds, reuse templates so you're not starting from scratch every time. You don't need to become a professional editor. You just need your message to be clear, engaging, and watchable. CapCut helps you take a raw talking head video, add captions for the moms watching on mute, export the right sizes for reels, TikToks, YouTube shorts, boom, done. Then we got Canva. Girl. Canva is where I make episode cover graphics, design YouTube thumbnails, create carousels that break down my episode and bite-sized visuals. Why this matters? Your content is competing with cute kids, funny memes, viral dances. You get where I'm going with this? So your visuals matter. Canva gives you plug and play templates, brand folders for your colors and fonts, the ability to look put together without hiring a designer. You can batch a whole month of thumbnails or quote graphics in one sitting during nap time. And my last tool, something to schedule your content. Whether you use Meta Business Suite, Later, or another scheduler, the point is this. Future you should be thanking present you for planning ahead. Scheduling helps you stay consistent when mom life hit, show up in your audience's feed when you're offline, break out of that post vanish, feel guilty cycle. Imagine you batch record four to six videos in one day, edit them with Cap Cut, design graphics in Canberra, plug everything into your scheduler. Now your content is going out while you help with homework, fold laundry, or finally sit down and rest. That's confident CEO energy. Not that other mess. So your unmuted CEO toolkit looks like this: notes or Google Docs to capture your ideas, Notion or Trello to organize your content pipeline, CapCut to quickly simplify and edit your videos, Canva to brand your graphics and thumbnails, and Meta Business Suite or later to schedule and stay consistent. None of this is about perfection. It's about removing friction so you can do what you're actually called to do. Show up and serve. Sis, you don't have to earn the right to be seen with fancy tech. You're already called, already anointed, and already enough to start right where you are with your phone and a plan. If this episode helped you breathe a little easier, do me a favor. Screenshot this episode, share it to your stories, and tag me at the unmuted CEO and tell me which tool you're going to set up this week. And if you're ready for more accountability and support around your confidence, content, and visibility, come join us inside Unmuted and Seen, my inner circle for mom CEOs who are done playing small. Until next time, sis, stop overthinking the tech. Start trusting your voice and stay unmuted. Thank you so much for spending this time with me today.
