Description

In this week’s episode of This Mother Means Business, host Laura Sinclair continues her “10 Lessons from 10 Years of Entrepreneurship” series with one of her most honest reflections yet — the importance of taking care of yourself.

Laura opens up about how years of putting her business first led to burnout, and how reprioritizing herself changed everything — from her energy and relationships to her ability to lead and grow sustainably. She dives into personal stories, therapy breakthroughs, and her simple “Core Four” non-negotiables that keep her grounded: sleep, good food, exercise, and connection.

If you’ve ever struggled to balance ambition with your own wellbeing, this episode will remind you that your business should exist to serve your life — not the other way around.
