I Thought Motherhood Would Ruin My Business - Here’s What Actually Happened

What if the season of life you’re afraid will slow you down is actually the one that helps you rise?

In this deeply honest, full-circle conversation, Katja sits down with her longtime mentor Sam to unpack the identity shifts, mindset breakthroughs, and uncomfortable truths that come with building a business while life is expanding.

This episode goes beyond strategy. It’s about the internal work that actually determines your success — especially when you’re navigating ambition, motherhood, relationships, and personal growth all at once.

If you’re a woman who wants more — more alignment, more confidence, more ease and more success — this conversation will hit.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why waiting for confidence before taking action is keeping you stuck — and what to do instead
• The mindset shift from hustle and grind to flow, ease, and trust (without losing momentum)
• The fear so many women have but rarely admit: “Will motherhood ruin my business?”
• How courage — not belief — is often the missing piece in personal growth and entrepreneurship
• What changes when your identity expands faster than your old routines can support
• How becoming a mom can actually sharpen your focus, boundaries, and leadership
• Why personal development isn’t optional if you want success that lasts

This is a conversation about evolution — who you become as your life grows, how your mindset shapes your outcomes, and why you don’t have to choose between ambition and presence.

If you’re in a season of change — or you feel one coming — this episode will help you feel less alone, more grounded, and deeply validated in your desire for both growth and fulfillment.
