From Burnout to Balance: One Mompreneur’s Journey from Chaos to Clarity

Jess hadn’t had a hot cup of coffee in weeks.

Not because she didn’t want one—she just couldn’t find five uninterrupted minutes to drink it. Between a team that needed her 24/7, never-ending client requests, and the chaos of being a mom, her mornings were a juggling act she was constantly dropping.

Her inbox was a graveyard of unread emails. Her to-do list looked more like a CVS receipt. Her team? Well, they were trying—but everyone seemed to be working in different directions, asking the same questions over and over again.

“How are you managing all this?” a friend asked.

She laughed. Then cried.

Because the truth was—she wasn’t.

Jess was searching things like how to manage a small team remotely and how to stop dropping balls in business late at night, trying to find something, anything, that could give her some breathing room. She didn’t need more planners or better time management. She needed her business to stop depending on her for every. single. thing.

That’s when she stumbled across me.

We hopped on a Systems Strategy Call. No fluff, no fancy acronyms—just real talk. She told me about the endless Slack pings, the proposals that never got sent, the “quick questions” that ate up half her day. I asked her one question:

“What would your business look like if it could actually run without you?”

She got quiet.

Because she’d never thought that was possible.

Over the next few weeks, we rolled up our sleeves. Jess signed on for a Done-for-You System Setup, and we went deep:

• We mapped out every moving part of her business and untangled the mess.

• We built automated workflows and project systems her team could follow without her.

• We created an operations hub where everyone had clarity—no more “Hey Jess, where’s that thing?” messages.

• We even built out a client onboarding flow that didn’t require her involvement at all.

And the magic? It wasn’t just in the tech. It was in the strategy.

She stopped micromanaging. She started leading. And she finally had time to think again.

A month later, she texted me from a beach.
Not a metaphorical beach. A real one. With sunscreen, cocktails, and no laptop in sight.

Her business kept running. Her team was thriving. And for the first time in years, she felt like a CEO instead of a firefighter.

Jess now works with me on a monthly retainer. We meet regularly, keep refining her operations, and make sure her systems grow with her business—not against it.

Here’s the thing:
If you’re reading this and nodding along? You’re probably where Jess was. Burned out. Maxed out. Wondering if this whole business-owner-mom-wife-human-being thing is even sustainable.

It is. You just can’t do it alone—and you shouldn’t have to.

Whether you need a clear strategy, someone to build the systems for you, or a right-hand ops partner in your back pocket, I’ve got you.

👉 Book a Systems Strategy Call if you're stuck in the weeds.
👉 Done-for-You System Setups if you're ready to hand it off.
👉 Monthly COO Retainers if you want ongoing high-level support.

Your business should support your life. Not the other way around.

Let’s build the systems that make that possible.
