MINDFUL MOTHERHOOD AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP: Balancing Business with Family as a Mompreneur with Michelle Caines

Confident You NETWORK with Marion Swingler

Have you ever felt the push and pull between the demands of entrepreneurship and the heartstrings of motherhood? Michelle Caines, our illustrious guest, joins us on the Confident You podcast to share her story—a tale of transforming the trials of a New York latchkey childhood into a mindful approach to parenting and business. Her journey reflects the larger narrative of women's evolving roles since their entry into the workforce during wartime, and together, we unravel the complexities of achieving balance, the essence of mindfulness, and the tools needed for women to truly have it all.
Throughout the episode, she gets candid about her upbringing, where the differing influences of her relatives played a pivotal role in shaping her worldview. She opened up about the emotional nuances that come with parenting—how her background impacts her relationship with her children and how mindfulness has been a cornerstone in developing deeper connections with her family. This is not just my tale, but a shared experience of growth, resilience, and the transformative power of introspection. Sharing anecdotes and hard-earned wisdom, this episode is an homage to the strength and adaptability required to nurture both a family and a business.
We wrap up by digging into the meat and potatoes of juggling multiple roles as a mompreneur. Active listening, shedding biases, and debunking the myth of perfect balance take center stage as we address the age-old desire to do it all. She also passes on the empowering insights gained from coaching, and the joy of using one's narrative to inspire others. Whether you need strategies to carve out personal time, ways to mend past rifts with your children, or simply seeking that spark of inspiration to take on the world, this episode is your beacon. Michelle is here to support you on your unique path to success as you embrace the confidence within.
