Why Smart Entrepreneurs Are Hiring Moms (and Growing Faster)

What if the key to unlocking your business growth isn’t found in another marketing hack or expensive hire; but in the confidence and untapped talent of moms ready to re-enter the workforce? 

With over 5.4 million mothers having paused their careers to raise children, there’s a massive wave of skilled, educated, and motivated women ready to make an impact.

In today’s episode, I sit down with Lesley Pyle, MSc., the trailblazing founder of HireMyMom.com. Since 2007, Lesley has been on a mission to connect small businesses with professional moms who want flexible, legitimate work-from-home opportunities. Over 10,000 entrepreneurs and small business owners have already trusted her platform to find dependable virtual professionals who bring not just skill but passion, commitment, and confidence into every role.

What makes Lesley’s work so unique? Unlike the mega career sites, HireMyMom.com offers a personalized concierge service that hand-selects candidates so you aren’t overwhelmed with hundreds of resumes. This boutique approach empowers small business owners to scale their teams with confidence, while giving moms the chance to step back into the workforce in a way that honors their families and their skills. And Lesley isn’t stopping there—her new venture, HireThyNeighbor.com, set to launch in 2025, will take her mission even further by creating local opportunities that build stronger communities.

Whether you’re a business owner looking for the right people to fuel your growth or a mom ready to embrace flexible, fulfilling work, this conversation will inspire you to think differently about confidence, calling, and collaboration. Press play and discover how Lesley Pyle is changing the future of work—one confident mom and one growing business at a time.
