1209: The Boss Mom: Motherhood, Identity, and the Path to Self-Discovery to Building a Mom-Powered Business with Dana Malstaff

Balancing motherhood with running a business can make it feel like you’ve lost sight of who you are and what you truly want to achieve. It’s easy to get caught in the cycle of self-doubt and second-guessing, especially when marketing yourself doesn’t come naturally. It’s tough to juggle the demands of both roles, and sometimes it feels like you’re not doing enough in either area. Finding a way to embrace both your business and your personal identity can take time, but it’s about allowing yourself room to grow and figuring out what works for you. Dana Malstaff is the founder and CEO of Boss Mom, a business and movement that has been empowering moms to find their voice, purpose, and financial independence for over a decade. She is also the host of The Boss Mom Podcast. Today, Dana talks about her mission to rewrite the Boss Mom book, which was originally published in 2015. She shares her research findings that many women start businesses as a way to rediscover their identity after becoming mothers, often making decisions not based on financial viability, but on the need for appreciation and validation.
