Being a BOSS-MOM: Interview with Dana Malstaff -Building a Business and Nurturing your Family

Epic Success with Dr Shannon Irvine

Today, I have the pleasure of talking with Dana Malstaff, CEO and founder of Boss Mom. Dana has successfully created a movement of moms who love their families and are building businesses at the same time without all the mom guilt. Her community has grown to over 20,000 women who are pursuing their passions, raising their families, and building each other up in the process.

I know you will be inspired to let go of any guilt around your life or business as Dana gives us all permission to feel what we feel and then to move forward.

In today’s episode, you’ll hear:

• Dana’s own story of feeling guilt when faced with having babies while wanting to build a business
• How she entered the entrepreneurial world and began to search for people who understood her
• How she handles (and loves) the people in her life who don’t get what she’s doing
• The powerful culture she has created and how it has lead to an amazing community of over 20,000 women
• Why it's so important to be completely YOU in business – quirks and all
• Why Dana doesn’t believe in work/life balance and instead how she uses the power of tweaking, assessing, and integration
• The most important thing to know and look for when hiring a coach or mentor
• Dana’s keys to building a great team that keeps her focused and moving forward

Dana Quotes:

“We have to make the decision about who we want to be surrounded by and who we want to make the effort to educate.”

“As soon as you have influence, you want to start helping others have influence. Because the idea that you’re the influencer and you want to bottle that up and never share that and just sell that out to everybody isn’t as helpful as creating micro-influencer who create micro-influencers. A perpetual culture of helping is a win-win for everybody.”

“The more confident I am about decisions, the less guilt I have.”

“The 2 key ways to build your team is to hire your ideal client and empower them.”
