Carpools, Caffeine & Clients: Balancing Mom Life with Business Dreams
This week on Lifestyle and Lenses, Lauren and Paige open up about the real, raw, and rewarding journey of running a business while navigating motherhood.
If you’re a mom juggling diapers, nap schedules, carpool and client calls—or dreaming of starting a side hustle while raising your babies—this conversation is for you. We share how we got started, the challenges we’ve faced, and the ways motherhood has shaped our businesses for the better.
Think of this episode as a coffee date mixed with a therapy session. We’re pulling back the curtain on what it’s really like to balance business and family life, and reminding you that you’re not alone in the chaos.
What you’ll hear in this episode:
- Our personal journeys of building businesses as moms
- Encouragement for new moms wanting to start their own hustle
- Honest talk about the struggles and joys of mom-life-meets-business

- Bringing our kids into our businesses, alongside us in our work
- How rhythms make a huge difference in our daily lives
- Flexibility is the name of the game running a business and running a house with multiple kids
Grab your coffee (or reheat it for the third time—we get it, mama) and come join the conversation.
