This Mother Means Business: Strategy, Advice, and Support for Mom Entrepreneurs

Habits of Highly Successful Mom Entrepreneurs (That are Actually Easy!)

Laura Sinclair

Welcome back to another episode of This Mother Means Business! In today’s episode, I’m sharing the five habits I see in my most successful clients that are absolutely essential for thriving as an entrepreneurial mom. After coaching over a thousand women and running my mastermind for two and a half years, I’ve noticed common themes among the women experiencing the most joy, balance, and success. These habits aren’t about working harder—they’re about working smarter, setting boundaries, and prioritizing yourself along the way.

We’ll dive into the power of daily prioritization, why boundaries are your secret weapon, and how creating space for self-care and hobbies isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s essential. I’ll also share how focused work blocks can transform your productivity and why continuous learning is a non-negotiable if you want to build a business and life that you love. If you’re ready to make small, intentional shifts that have a big impact, this episode is for you.

Episode Highlights:

[1:18] – Why daily prioritization creates freedom: my weekly schedule and how it helps me stay focused.
[4:43] – Boundaries: the key to protecting your time, energy, and joy in both business and motherhood.
[6:25] – The self-care non-negotiable: why hobbies and downtime aren’t selfish, they’re essential.
[7:11] – Focused work blocks: how to work smarter by eliminating distractions and getting more done.
[9:31] – Continuous learning: being open to growth in all areas of your life.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Daily Prioritization: Structure your week by dedicating specific days to specific tasks—like CEO days, client calls, or content creation—so you can avoid constant task-switching and find flow in your work.
  2. Strong Boundaries: Protect your time and energy with boundaries for clients, family, and yourself. Boundaries aren’t just about saying no; they’re about creating ease and joy.
  3. Self-Care Matters: Pour into yourself first. Whether it’s a morning walk, reading, or hobbies, prioritize activities that recharge you.
  4. Focused Work Blocks: Turn off distractions and focus fully on one task at a time. This creates space to be present in your work—and in your personal life.
  5. Be Open to Learning: Stay curious and embrace opportunities for growth. Ask for help, invest in mentorship, and remember: you don’t know what you don’t know.
