Labels, Leadership & Motherhood with Julie Cole

In this episode, Ariela Koldorf is joined by Julie Cole, co-founder of Mabel’s Labels, to explore the intersection of parenting, entrepreneurship, and advocacy. Julie shares her experience raising six children—some of whom are neurodivergent—while building a successful business from the ground up.

The conversation dives into the origins of Mabel’s Labels, the challenges and rewards of parenting through different developmental stages, and the importance of fostering independence and mutual respect.

Julie reflects on the realities of work-life balance, the power of flexibility, and the deep need for community in both business and family life.

Together, Ariela and Julie discuss the role of advocacy in parenting neurodivergent children, the value of neuroinclusion in the workplace, and the ongoing personal growth that comes from navigating motherhood and leadership.
