They have 2 children together, a girl who is currently 14 at the time of this interview, and a boy who is 10.I met Beth because when I was in graduate school I was looking for an acupuncturist outside of my school’s clinic, and it was immediately clear to me that Beth was the practitioner I had been looking for. Over the years she became just as much of a mentor to me as a healer, so I’m thrilled that she agreed to come on the show to share some of her wisdom with all of you!

As ambitious mothers, we often feel like there’s never enough time to do all the things we want to do. And because of this perceived time-scarcity, the majority of women I work end up sacrificing their health in the interest of feeling like they have more time. But all of this can cause a lot of stress and take a serious toll in the long-run. If you don’t take care of yourself, you end up being a lesser version of yourself. You sacrifice the amazing, unstoppable woman you could be for a tired, overwhelmed, achey, cranky, chronically unsatisfied version of yourself. Still, the days aren’t getting longer, and your to-do list isn’t getting any shorter. So what’s the solution? In my experience, there are 2 things you need to do if you want more time for the things you want and love. Listen to this episode to find out what they are!

Tracy is the mother of two boys and runs Mums With Hustle, a successful online business that helps a community of over 50,000 mompreneurs find the resources they need to grow their own tribe, get noticed, and build a powerful brand online. A former primary school teacher, Tracy had a very hard time returning to work as a nursing mother, and it caused her even more stress and anxiety when she decided to leave her day job to pursue her online business. At the time there were no platforms or resources helping young mothers start their own business, especially when they had no startup capital or formal business training, so she used her personal experience to start that platform herself, and boy has it payed off! I found Tracy through her podcast, which is also called Mums with Hustle, and she has loads of amazing experiences and tips to share with us in our conversation.
