In this powerful conversation from the BossMom Virtual Retreat, Dr. Shannon Irvine drops a game-changing truth about why you feel stuck in your business—and it’s not what you think. 👉 90% of your actions come from subconscious patterns you didn’t choose. 👉 Your brain is wired for safety, not success. But the good news? You can rewire it. In this, Shannon explains why your mindset—not your strategy—is often the biggest block to growth, and how brain priming can help you finally move forward with calm, clarity, and confidence.

There’s something every mom needs, but no one is talking about it. It’s not more sleep (though that would be nice). It’s not better time management. It’s validation. Motherhood shifts everything. It changes how we see ourselves, what we want, and what we believe is possible. And in the process, many moms start to feel lost, stuck, or even question whether they still have dreams of their own. If you’ve ever felt like you’re procrastinating, self-sabotaging, or just spinning your wheels, this episode will help you understand why—and what you can do about it. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why having kids creates an identity crisis no one prepares you for The real reason you keep procrastinating (and it’s not just time management) Why your kids and your partner can’t give you the kind of validation you need How starting a business becomes a journey of self-discovery The secret to getting unstuck and actually moving forward Why community, collaboration, and connection are essential for moms in business If you’ve been feeling behind, struggling to take action, or wondering if success is even possible for you, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you need. Tune in now and let’s talk about what it really takes to build something amazing—without losing yourself in the process. Join the Boss Mom Community Want support from women who get it?
