In this raw and honest episode, we dive deep into the beautiful chaos of juggling motherhood, entrepreneurship, and friendship with our incredible guest, Dr. Liana Sved (@the_jawpaindoc).
Together, we pull back the curtain on what it really looks like to show up every day as moms, business owners, and women trying to do it all. From chaotic mornings filled with cereal spills and toddler meltdowns to late-night emails and moments of quiet doubt, we talk about the unfiltered truth behind the highlight reels.
We explore the emotional rollercoaster that so often comes with building a business while raising a family—the pressure to be everything to everyone, the guilt, the breakthroughs, and the small wins that keep us going. Dr. Liana opens up about her journey as a mom and doctor, how she’s learned to find support in unexpected places, and the powerful role that female friendship and vulnerability have played in her growth.
This conversation is a love letter to every woman who’s ever felt overwhelmed, burned out, or questioned whether she’s doing enough. If you've ever cried on the bathroom floor, doubted your purpose, or simply needed someone to say "me too," this episode is for you.
Because the truth is: you don’t have to have it all figured out to keep going. You just have to keep showing up.
