Getting Past the Fear of Success and Launching Something New

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

In this heartwarming and honest episode, Dana opens up about a topic that many entrepreneurs quietly struggle with, the fear of success, and how it nearly stopped her from launching her latest creation, NurtureToConvert.ai.

After a decade of running Boss Mom and helping thousands of women grow their businesses, Dana found herself overwhelmed, procrastinating, and emotionally drained just days before her big launch. She shares the behind-the-scenes story of navigating self-doubt, confronting her fear, and ultimately choosing courage over perfection.

This episode is a powerful reminder that even experienced business owners face resistance and that launching something new often requires more emotional bravery than strategy.
