16: Doing Business as a Mother: The Modern and Ancient Way with Jamie Arrigo

As women in business, we are birthing a new way to be in business and be in service, and actually this new way is a calling back to the old ways, the ancient ways. We spoke to changemaker, visionary, rebel, professional creative, photographer, branding expert, and mother of three, Jamie Arrigo, about the really freaking cool way women are creating a new paradigm together these days. Our multifaceted conversation with Jamie ranged from memes and traditional advertising to zeitgeist trends, to breastfeeding on Zoom meetings, to being yourself and speaking your truth online, to millennial strengths and struggles. It struck us that this is an extremely special moment for women, one to celebrate. We also talked about a collective movement toward more spirituality, more god, and natural birth, and how yes, this time comes with so much challenge but it is also so ripe with potential. We spoke about how at this unprecedented time of the softpreneur, fempreneur, momprenuer, you have the capability to create literally any business you want.


We explore:


  • How Jamie balances motherhood and entrepreneurship.
  • The new yet ancient way women are finding in motherhood and creative expression together.
  • Jamie's insightful and inspiring thoughts on community, collaboration, and creativity.
  • The double-edged sword of social media… The pressure and programming to be famous, how millennials all thought we needed to be special and what we're striving for now.
  • Women's reclamation of motherhood.
  • Breastfeeding during business meetings.
  • The incredible potential of this time.
