Her Moment

Babba Rivera grew up in Sweden in a Chilean home. At 22 she helped launch Uber in Stockholm, then talked her way into being the first person Uber relocated from Europe to the US. After leading brand marketing at Away and starting her own agency with a borrowed laptop, she launched Ceremonia in 2020, the haircare brand inspired by the self-care rituals her mother created in the small apartment she grew up in. She raised her first million over Zoom from her closet in Brooklyn, while pregnant and not yet telling anyone.In this Her Conversations episode, we talk about growing up between two cultures and why it became her superpower, the investor who told her not to have children for five years if she was serious about her business, why her mom called their tiny bathroom in her childhood home in Sweden a spa, and why she has a beef with silicones. We also get into raising four daughters while building a global brand, and why she's so over the idea that women have to choose between ambition and motherhood.

A few years ago, my take on cycle syncing was simple: pull yourself together and get the job done. In this Her Business episode, I share why I changed my mind and exactly how I structure my work now. Big pitches and sales when my energy peaks, reporting and admin when it dips, and why none of it affects my clients. I also talk about the postpartum hormone rollercoaster, why it took me almost two years to feel fully like myself again, and how meeting Tine Hertz from NOMAE sparked my interest in female health, which led to me organizing my work around my cycle! I hope you enjoy this one!Follow Her Moment @hermomentpodcastFollow Terese @tereseask Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Her Moment, is all about motherhood. I'm taking you into my day to day as a solo mom by choice to an almost three year old: how I plan our weeks on Sundays, why our afternoons are often more spontaneous than you would probably think, and the bedtime routine I built to work anywhere in the world.I also share what might be an unpopular opinion. I don't think solo parenting is harder than parenting as two. I think it's hard in different ways. I talk about the weight of making every decision on your own, standing your ground with a doctor when your intuition tells you something is wrong, the physical reality of always being on, and why the mental load can actually feel lighter when it's just you and your child.Whether you're a mom, pregnant or dreaming of motherhood someday, this episode is for you!

There are 10 weeks left until Christmas. That's around 50 work days, and that is more than enough time to make something happen.In this episode, I talk about why fall is my favourite season of the work year and how I set myself up to finish the year strong. Not by running myself into the ground, but by choosing one goal that really moves the needle and being honest about where my time goes.I share how my business partner and I spent the first half of this year restructuring Impression PR into a more flexible, project-based agency, why that meant growing the business had to wait, and why the next 10 weeks are all about closing that gap.In this episode:Picking the one goal that matters most before ChristmasWorking backwards: turning a goal into a weekly plan (with a real savings example)Why a goal without a plan is just a dreamBeing ruthless with your time, especially as a working momWhat to save for Q1 instead of doing nowA small Sunday ritual to map out your last 10 weeksYour homework: make a cup of coffee, tea or matcha (or pour yourself a glass of wine), light a candle, and write down the one goal you want to reach before Christmas, plus the small weekly steps that will get you there. Then share it with me on Instagram if you want to! <3Follow Her Moment @hermomentpodcastFollow Terese @tereseask Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
