Ever tried to run your business on three hours of sleep? Same. This week, my husband was away, the full moon hit, and my toddler decided night terrors were her new thing — so I hit record in the middle of it all to talk about what it really looks like to be a mom and an entrepreneur when you’re running on fumes.

In this episode, I’m sharing the biggest mistake I see mompreneurs make when they’re sleep-deprived (and yes, I’ve done it too), plus a more compassionate, strategic way to navigate those exhausting days. I walk you through the exact plan I lean on when I’m not at my best — so you can still move forward without burning out or spiraling.

This one’s for the moms who are building something beautiful… even when they’re barely holding it together.

🧭 Here’s what I cover:

• Why “pushing through” isn’t helping you — and what to do instead
• The plan I follow when I wake up tired and cranky but still have to work
• How to fuel your body (and not crash at 2pm with chips and regret)
• What to actually do during a Power Hour — and why it’s a game-changer
