20. Motherhood and Business Intertwined: Becoming a "Why Choose?" Mom with Tori Sprankel
Join me for this conversation for growing moms with Tori Sprankel, a mom to two and an expert at personal brands for go-to girlies. You already know her work from, well, this podcast! Tori has played a huge part in growing Poppy Therapy and this podcast - she's someone I look up to both in business and in motherhood and I'm thrilled to share this conversation with you!
This episode is especially for you if you are in the messy middle of figuring out how to shift your work life to fit motherhood wondering if there's another way or if you're an entrepreneur juggling it all 🤹♀️ As a mom to two girls, Tori believes in showing them that a cubicle isn't the only way to make a living - that having the freedom and courage to change lives through your own dreams is worth more than any paycheck.
In this episode, you'll hear about Tori's journey from being torn up at having to drop her baby at childcare to work a job that didn’t fit, to finding a work-life formula that did fit her family - and how Tori has grown through shifts and challenges to step into motherhood and business with clarity and confidence.
We talk about:
❀ Romanticizing life and the small moments
❀ Being a “why choose?” mom - why choose between being a present mother and using your skills to build something that impacts the world?
❀ The wild ride of losing her corporate job the day she brought a new baby home from the hospital - and how the uncertainty of that time also brought her freedom
❀ Working mom guilt (including some mindset shifts and mantras for the hard days)
❀ Dinosaurs and poop - being enthralled with what your kids are enthralled with
Join us!
"I'm the "why choose?" - I want both. I want the kids and I also want to have parts of my day look like I don't have kids. You can have both and it's okay to want both."
Tori is an expert at personal brands for go-to girlies + her obsession is turning that pretty little pinterest board of yours into the brand you’ve always dreamed of. She loves working with women who need that boost of brand magic to back up their killer service suite that the world desperately needs.
