At BossMom, we’re normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this heartwarming and honest episode, Dana is joined by a very special guest—her 10-year-old daughter, Jordan, for a behind-the-scenes conversation about life, business, and what it’s really like growing up with a work from home mom. What starts as a casual chat quickly turns into something much deeper as Jordan shares her journey of starting her own press-on nail business, making $200 in a week, and learning the art of hustle from watching her mom in action. They talk about everything from sales skills and creativity to work-life balance, mom guilt, and the difference between corporate and entrepreneurial parenting. You’ll hear how Jordan views work, what inspires her, and how Dana’s business journey has shaped the way her daughter sees the world, and her own potential. This episode is a powerful reminder that our kids are always paying attention, and that by showing up authentically as passionate, purpose-driven moms, we’re planting the seeds of confidence, leadership, and possibility in the next generation.
