Here at BossMom, we believe the best stories aren’t the perfect ones. We tell the truth about the chaos, the laughter, and the hard-earned lessons that come when you’re raising kids and building something that matters.

In this episode, Dana sits down with Wendy Snyder, certified parenting educator, family life coach, and founder of Fresh Start Family Online. Together they dive into what it really means to practice connection-based parenting, why showing our kids our real emotions matters, and how the lessons we learn as moms can transform how we lead in business.

If you’ve ever wondered how to raise kids who still want to hang out with you when they’re grown, or how parenting can make you a stronger entrepreneur, this conversation will leave you encouraged, challenged, and ready to lean into connection over control.

At BossMom, we’re not here to teach you how to “balance it all.” We’re here to name what’s real—so you can build a life and business that actually fits who you’re becoming.

In this episode, Dana shares a deeply honest reflection about what she calls burdensome abundance—those seasons where everything you asked for is showing up at once… and it’s just too much. It’s not because you’re failing. It’s because you’re expanding.

You’ll hear how Dana talks to her nervous system in those stretched-too-thin moments, why emotional whiplash is often part of growth, and what it really means to expand your capacity—not just to stay calm, but to stay connected to what matters most.

This isn’t an empowerment pep talk.

It’s a mirror.

And if you’ve been feeling both grateful and exhausted, this is your permission to feel it all—and keep going anyway.

At BossMom, we’re normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family.

If you’ve ever wondered why people love your content but don’t buy, this episode is for you. Dana dives into the concept of hesitant buyers, those amazing potential clients who are just one or two steps away from saying yes. Instead of chasing perfect clients or spending all your energy on people in survival mode, she shows you how to focus on the sweet spot in the middle. With practical insights, real stories, and a whole lot of encouragement, you’ll learn how to build trust, inspire belief shifts, and guide hesitant buyers into becoming paying clients without ever feeling salesy.
