Episode 4: How to Be Present as a Mom While Building a Multi-Million Dollar Business: Janet Kinkade’s Story

February 07, 2023 • Cindy Monroe • Season 1 • Episode 4

Giving yourself permission to bet on yourself, take a risk, and lead can feel completely daunting—and my guest today, Janet Kinkade, knows that well.

What started as a jewelry design side hustle in Janet’s basement quickly grew into a multi-million dollar company. But with five kids and facing a divorce, Janet quickly realized she couldn’t do it all and do it well. Something needed to change—and it started with giving herself permission to accept help and bet on herself.

In this episode, Janet reveals how she was able to be a present mom while leaning into her new role as CEO and growing several multi-million dollar businesses. Plus, Janet gets honest about her intentions for her business and personal life this year and shares her best advice to new entrepreneurs on scaling (I think it might surprise you!). Listen now to hear Janet’s incredible story—and feel encouraged and motivated along the way.
