In this episode, I sit down with Jessica Stansberry, and together, we dive into the real, sometimes messy, balance between running a business and keeping family life in check. We cover how content creation has evolved, the rollercoaster of course creation, and what it’s like to juggle priorities as a parent. We talk about the importance of setting solid boundaries, staying in tune with market trends, and crafting a career path that really vibes with your personal goals and values.
