The BFF Club: Where Business & Parenthood Meet
From Corporate Burnout to Faith-Driven Empire with Vanessa Mitera
What happens when a daycare waitlist disaster becomes the push you needed to leave corporate forever? Vanessa Mitera from Mitera Branding and Eden and Empire shares her journey from a comfortable corporate life to ultimately pivoting to build a faith-driven brand empire that prioritizes wholeness over hustle.
In this episode, we explore:

- Why she went from 10 clients to 2 to focus on her true calling
- Building Eden and Empire: a faith-based community for female entrepreneurs
- The wholeness framework that transforms business and life
- Learning to surrender outcomes and trust God's timing over data and metrics
- How childhood experiences shaped her calling to help high-functioning women
Key Insight: "We weren't made to be single-purpose individuals. You were called to be a mom AND a business owner—those desires aren't random."
Perfect for: Faith-driven entrepreneurs, corporate women considering the leap, anyone struggling with achievement-based worth, and business owners seeking alignment over hustle.
