Raising Your Business: For Moms Growing Their Business and Raising Their Family

114. Designing Programs That Align With You AND Your Clients - BTS of My CEO Mom Collective

Thu, 09 Jul 2026 10:00:00 -0400

So this episode is a little different. I'm currently very pregnant, less than a week from my due date, sitting in my office telling you the real behind the scenes of how and why I built the CEO Mom Collective the way I did. Not the trendy way. Not the "everyone else is doing it this way" way. The way that actually works for my life right now, with a house full of kids and a business I refuse to let eat me alive.

This isn't just a "come join my membership" episode either (though... you should). It's actually a masterclass in how to think about EVERY offer in your business. Because here's the question I want you asking yourself the whole time you listen: am I building this for what's trendy or what my friend is doing, or for what actually works for me and the person on the other end?

What You'll Learn:

Why I ditched weekly Zoom calls (and what I do instead that works better for busy moms in every time zone)
The real reason I chose Slack over a Facebook group, and why voice notes changed how I coach completely
What makes a membership actually scalable instead of falling apart the second it grows
Why "just a content library" is the laziest kind of membership and what I built instead
The difference between the Collective and my Mastermind, and how to know which one is actually for you
The exact question you need to ask about every single offer you're building right now

Mentioned in This Episode:

CEO Mom Collective (founding rate ending soon, price increases from $97/month to $147/month after July 13th)
CEO Mom Mastermind (get on the waitlist here)

[REPLAY] Successful Sales Strategies for CEO Moms in 2026

Wed, 01 Jul 2026 04:00:00 -0400

Okay so real talk... things in the online space feel WEIRD right now, right? One minute you're hearing "nothing's working anymore" and the next someone's making a million bucks in 72 minutes flat. (Yap Challengers, unite!) So which is it??

This week I'm pulling back the curtain on a training I ran a couple weeks ago (yep, this is a replay, and yes I'm sharing it publicly because it was just too good to keep locked away). I dug into what's actually working for successful business owners (especially moms!) in 2026, and spoiler: it's not what you think.

I'm coming to you from a pretty intense season too. My sister was in a bad car accident days before I recorded this, I'm currently 2 weeks away from having baby #7, and somehow I'm still here showing up. Because that's kind of the whole point of what I teach... building a business that doesn't fall apart when life does.

Here's what I'm breaking down for you:

The ONE thing successful business owners are doing differently right now (hint: it's not posting more)
Why "courses are dead" is a lie people tell themselves, and what's actually replacing generic info products
The Costco rotisserie chicken strategy for your offer suite (you'll get it when you hear it)
A client story where she went from 2 sales to 12 sales just by changing ONE thing about her launch
Why automating your backend too early might be killing your sales
My "minimum viable marketing" rhythm that kept $8K/month coming in during my most chaotic, traumatized, nauseous first trimester ever

This one's part strategy, part permission slip to stop hustling like it's 2018.

113. What the BSB and Hilary Duff Can Teach You About Marketing

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 07:00:00 -0400

The Backstreet Boys are everywhere. The Jonas Brothers brought out Jesse McCartney, JoJo, and Demi Lovato on tour. Hilary Duff is back. And grown adults with mortgages and probably some form of joint pain are screaming like it's 2006 in Claire's.

Clearly, as a marketer, I couldn't just sit back and enjoy -- I had to figure out why it was working. And what I found is a marketing mechanism that literally changes people's emotional state — and you can use it whether your audience is into boy bands or has never heard of Jesse McCartney in their life.

This episode is about nostalgia marketing. Not the surface-level "reference old stuff" version. The actual psychological reason it moves people from skeptical to sold.

In this episode:

Why nostalgia isn't just a generational trick — it works on every human brain, full stop
What's actually happening when a Jonas Brothers crowd goes feral (and why it matters for your content)
The research on nostalgia and willingness to spend money — it's not subtle
5 ways to bring this into your marketing right now, none of which require a Backstreet Boys reference
Why vague origin stories don't land — and what emotional specificity actually does
The comeback arc and why you should never quietly reappear after time away

If your content feels like it's landing flat even when you're showing up consistently, this one's for you.

112. Creating Sales Momentum After a Hard Season

Tue, 26 May 2026 10:00:00 -0400

You don't need perfect conditions to make sales. You just need the right plan.

Easier said than done, I know. But hear me out.

Six weeks ago I was 27 weeks pregnant and coming off a long season of pulling way back on selling. And I decided it was time to get back into motion — not because everything was calm and perfect, but because I know something about sales that took me years to learn.

This episode is that thing.

I'm breaking down the three "marketing crops" I use to think about my sales ecosystem — herbs, vegetables, and trees — and sharing the real mindset shifts that got me back into selling momentum after a hard season. This framework works whether you have 10 hours a week or two. Whether it's summer, a holiday, a hard week, or all three at once.

If you've been telling yourself you'll sell more when things calm down... this one's for you.

In this episode:

The 3 types of marketing activities and which one to start with when you need cash NOW
Why motivation doesn't come before action (and what actually does)
The value of accountability in sales even if you technically KNOW what to do
The "conviction reset" I do every morning before I start working
What my client did on the last day of her launch that got her 10 sales — all from personal conversations
Why summer is actually the best time to plant (not pause)

111. How I Turned a $27 Offer Into $100K — And How to Literally Build a Funnel That Sells While You Sleep

Tue, 19 May 2026 04:00:00 -0400

Have you ever looked at your business and thought "I need a whole new offer, a whole new funnel, a whole new strategy" — when actually, you just need a smarter entry point?

Yeah. Been there. Built a better funnel instead.

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on one of my favorite business wins: how a $27 workshop led to over $100K in backend sales — including an $18K VIP client — without a complicated tech setup, without sales calls, and without starting from scratch.

I'm walking you through the exact 4-part framework I used to build a low-to-high-ticket funnel from stuff I already had. And trust me, if you're a busy mom running a business in between everything else, this is the kind of strategy that was made for you.

In this episode:

The $27 workshop that led to a $10K upgrade (and how 10% of buyers converted — without a single sales call)
Why your next offer doesn't need to be new — it needs to be strategic
The difference between a "micro" and "macro" entry point (and how to pick the right one for your high ticket offer)
How to connect your low-ticket offer to your premium program in a way that feels natural, not pushy
The follow-up strategy that keeps your funnel working long after launch day

If you're ready to stop leaving money on the table and start building something that sells while you sleep, this episode is for you.

110. 3 Steps To Your Best Summer Ever as a CEO Mom in 2026

Tue, 12 May 2026 04:00:00 -0400

Every May, the panic hits. The kids' school schedule is imploding, your calendar looks like a snack list exploded on it, and suddenly you're realizing... oh. Summer is in like three weeks.

And if you're anything like most mom entrepreneurs, your "summer business plan" is basically: vibe and hope. Which — girl, same energy but not a strategy.

This episode is the wake-up call you need before you either disappear all summer OR burn yourself out trying to hustle through it. I'm walking you through my 3-part Summer Sales Plan — the exact framework I've used through multiple summers (and yes, three summer maternity leaves) to make money without losing my mind.

The truth is, the moms who actually have a calm, profitable summer didn't work harder. They just planned earlier. And the best time to plan is right now.

In this episode:

The sneaky mindset mistake that makes you think nobody buys in summer (hint: you're projecting your own chaos onto your clients)
What a "pre-sell" actually looks like when you're not into big complicated launches
The nurture journey strategy that keeps your audience warm even when you're running at 40% capacity
Why September feels like rebuilding from scratch — and what to do right now so it doesn't
How I made money while nursing a newborn (and how you can set that up too)

109. 5Xing Her Sales in 1 Day - What's Working for Sales in 2026 (Mastermind BTS)

Wed, 06 May 2026 02:00:00 -0400

You did everything right. You emailed, you pre-sold, you showed up all week long. Day 6 of your launch: two sales.

Sound familiar?

Before you blame your offer, rewrite your sales page, or spiral into "maybe nobody actually wants this" — I want to share something that came up on our final CEO Mom Mastermind call that made me feel both extremely validated and also super excited to share with you.

One of my clients went from 2 sales to 12 in a single day. And the thing she did differently? It wasn't a new funnel. It wasn't a fancy email sequence. It was so simple it's almost annoying.

In this episode I'm breaking down:

What she did on the last day that 5x'd her results
The real reason people weren't buying (it's not what you think)
How to add personal touchpoints to your sales process without living on Zoom
What separates the people who survive hard seasons from those who don't
Why the slow burn actually IS the build

If your launches have felt harder this year, this one's for you.

108. Exactly What I Look At When Sales Are Inconsistent

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 09:00:00 -0400

Okay real talk — slow sales seasons are THE WORST.

You're doing the thing, you're showing up, you have a great offer, and yet... crickets. And then your brain starts spiraling into "maybe I need a new niche" or "maybe I should launch something else" or "maybe I'm just not cut out for this."

Stop. Just stop right there.

I've been in that exact place — a 2K month, pregnant, exhausted, no idea how to turn things around. And what I figured out (the hard way, obviously) is that inconsistent sales almost never come from what you THINK they come from. There's a much shorter list of culprits, and once you know where to look, the fix is so much simpler than the chaos spiral your brain is currently on.

In this episode, you'll learn:

Why "I've tried everything" usually means you haven't found the specific thing that's broken yet
The two ways to handle a capacity problem (because sometimes it's not a strategy problem at all)
What I actually look at first when sales go quiet — and why it's not your offer
Why your messaging might be the leak and what proof-forward content actually looks like
The sneakiest sales problem that smart, solid business owners overlook constantly
What I did during a 2K month that took me to 15K the very next month
How to build assets that sell FOR you when you're in survival mode
How to diagnose your own sales leak without burning everything down

107. War, Pregnancy, and Getting Back to Business After Life Derails You

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 11:00:00 -0400

Okay, I'm baaaaack! And before we get into it — yes, I know it's been a while.

My last episode was February 10th. I came out of first trimester ready to go, launched the CMA Accelerator, and then on March 1st Israel and the US went to war with Iran. Schools shut down. My six kids were home for six weeks straight. We had sirens multiple times a day and multiple times a night, and every single one meant dropping everything, grabbing kids, and running to our safe room. I'm pregnant. I was carrying a baby and a toddler in the dark at 2am more times than I can count.

It was a season. And my business felt it.

But here's what I had to remind myself — and what I want you to hear if you've had a hard season too: getting out of business shape is not a moral failure. It just means you need to put in the reps again. And knowing what to do is not the same as doing it.

In this episode I'm getting into what "day one energy" actually is, why experienced entrepreneurs lose it, and how to get it back without pretending you're starting from scratch. Because you're not.

Here's what we cover:

What it means to be "out of business shape" and why it happens to even the most experienced entrepreneurs
The fitness analogy that completely reframed how I was thinking about this
What "day one energy" is and why it's so magnetic — and what kills it over time
Why sometimes knowing too much is actually what's blocking you (the yips are real)
The exact scrappy-but-strategic plan I'm running right now to rebuild before baby number seven arrives
Why starting again and starting over are completely different things

106. Sell The Plane, Not Just The Destination - Your Key to an AI-Proof Business in 2026

Tue, 10 Feb 2026 09:00:00 -0500

You've heard it a million times: "Sell the destination, not the airplane." Don't confuse people with your process—they just want the result.

I'm calling BS.

Because in 2026, when everyone's using the same AI prompts and sounding exactly alike? Your unique PROCESS is literally the only thing that makes you different. It's your moat. Your AI-proof competitive advantage.

In this episode, I'm breaking down why your signature framework matters more than ever—and how it becomes the backbone of everything in your business: your authority, your content, your offers, your scalability, and your ability to stand out.

Plus, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I had my first multi-6-figure year the year my business was the SIMPLEST—with one clear offer, one framework, and zero complicated funnels. All while working 10-20 hours a week with babies at home.

What You'll Learn:

Why "sell the destination, not the airplane" advice is flawed for seasoned CEO moms
The real reason your signature framework is your AI-proof moat
How your framework creates infinite content angles—so you never run out of things to say
How to turn your framework into multiple strategic offers at different price points
Why your process pre-qualifies the right clients and filters out the wrong ones
How to make your business scalable beyond just you showing up for every client

If you're ready to stop guessing and stop rebuilding your business every month—the CMA Accelerator is for you.

In this 12-week sprint:

Set your capacity (build your business model for your ACTUAL bandwidth, not imaginary availability)
Claim your genius (create your signature framework + productized offer + standout unique messaging)
Activate your sales (my Low-Key Launch process so you have proof it sells)

We kick off February 15th. Enrollment is open now at the founding price—it's going up after this round.

Join at yaelbendahan.com/accelerator or DM me "ACCELERATOR" on Instagram with your biz details. I'll send you back a quick Loom or voice note with a custom plan for exactly what we would do together in the Accelerator if it's a good fit.

BONUS: Get immediate access to my Cash Injection Bootcamp ($997 value) PLUS a 1:1 pregame cash injection Voxer sesh with me—this can make your money back in the first two weeks!

105. How to Plan Your 2026 Like a CEO Mom

Tue, 27 Jan 2026 15:00:00 -0500

Most business planning assumes consistent capacity, predictable childcare, and steady energy. That's not mom life—and it never will be.

I'm currently pregnant with baby #7, dealing with first trimester brain fog, and planning my most strategic year yet. How? I'm not planning for an ideal fantasy world. I'm planning for REALITY—sick kids, holidays, maternity leave, and the capacity shifts that come with motherhood.

In this episode, I'm breaking down my exact framework for planning a year that doesn't fall apart when the unexpected happens. This is the foundation—then I'm going WAY deeper at my free 2026 Planning Party (February 2-3).

What You'll Learn:

Why planning for your ideal life sets you up for failure (and what to do instead)
How to map your non-negotiables FIRST before any business goals
My realistic capacity framework for planning revenue around motherhood
The three-focus system that creates momentum without drowning you
How to use "momentum marketing" so each offer naturally sells the next
What's actually working in 2026 (not what worked three years ago)

104. How I'm Completely Restructuring My Business for 2026 (And Why YOU Might Need To)

Thu, 15 Jan 2026 14:00:00 -0500

If you crawled across the December finish line feeling like you just ran a marathon after the holidays—or if your launches and offers have been feeling heavier and conversions are down—we need to talk.

The truth is, what worked even a couple years ago isn't working anymore. The market has shifted. Buyers are more cautious, the content treadmill feels exhausting, and honestly? It's okay if you're just feeling kind of...tired.

But the thing is...many entrepreneurs are still thriving. And in this episode, I'm breaking down exactly what's different about them—and what I'm updating in my own business to make 2026 feel spacious and service-focused.

I'm also sharing a big personal announcement that's driving this entire shift, and why I'm bringing back a program I sunset years ago (while retiring my beloved Mastermind...for now). This isn't about burning everything down. It's about building smarter, more specifically, and more sustainably—especially as CEO moms who need our businesses to actually work with our real lives.

What You'll Learn:

Why some of the "traditional" strategies aren't working anymore (and what IS working)
The #1 thing separating entrepreneurs who are thriving from those who are burning out
Why being a generalist will make you invisible in 2026—and how to get specific without losing yourself
The exact audit questions I used to simplify my offer suite (and why I'm sunsetting my Mastermind)
How to build monthly recurring revenue that doesn't require you to be "on" all the time
My exciting announcement and what it means for how I'm restructuring everything

103. What's ACTUALLY Selling Right Now? Lessons from Black Friday

Wed, 03 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0500

Black Friday 2025 was... interesting. Some people crushed it. Others had their quietest year in ages. And if you're somewhere in between trying to figure out what just happened...this episode is for you.

I'm breaking down exactly what's selling right now, what people experienced from both sides of Black Friday this year, and why specificity and human connection are the only things cutting through the noise anymore. Because spoiler alert: more AI-generated content is NOT the answer.

If you're a mom entrepreneur building a business that doesn't require you 24/7, grab your coffee and let's dive into what actually matters heading into 2026.

What You'll Learn:

Why Black Friday 2025 had such mixed results—and what that tells us about where the online business world is headed
The specificity secret: How my client Katherine made $11K with less than 300 people on her list (and how you can do the same)
The warm-up you can't skip: Why sales happen AFTER trust, and how to use Black Friday as a barometer (not a failure)
Human touch is everything: Why people are craving real connection and how to bring more of yourself into your business without burning out
What to focus on for the rest of December and 2026: The exact shifts you need to make to stand out in an increasingly automated world

Key Takeaways:

✅ Specificity wins every time. Your offer needs to be so clear that someone reads it and goes, "Oh my God, that's for me." Not "that sounds nice"--literally "I NEED this right now."

✅ You can't skip the relationship building. The people who did well on Black Friday had been nurturing their audiences for months. If you didn't pre-warm people, use this as data...not proof you're failing.

✅ People still want people. Don't automate yourself out of your business. AI can support you, but it can't replace your experience, your perspective, and your connection.

102. How to Launch Your First Leveraged Offer in 2026 (The Mom-Friendly Way)

Wed, 26 Nov 2025 12:00:00 -0500

What if I told you that you could launch your first leveraged offer, make over $11K, and still show up for your kids' Christmas parties without breaking a sweat?

My client Katherine did exactly that—and she did it in December while being fully present for her five kids. No complicated challenge funnels. No showing up on camera every single day. Just a simple, stripped-back launch process that actually works for moms with actual lives.

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the exact three-phase process Katherine used to launch her first course while maintaining her family traditions, making hot dinners most nights, and keeping her sanity intact. If you've been sitting on a course idea, group program, or any kind of leveraged offer but feel too overwhelmed to launch it, this one's for you.

What You'll Learn:

Why you need a leveraged offer (even if your one-to-one business is doing fantastically well)
The three-phase low-key launch process that works for busy moms
How Katherine made over $11K across two launches with less than 220 people on her launch list
Why you should NEVER create your entire program before validating it

How to turn your beta launch into an evergreen funnel

101. How I Forgot About Black Friday (And Still Made $4K) -- BF Tips and Strategies You Can Implement NOW

Wed, 12 Nov 2025 05:00:00 -0500

In this episode, I'm taking you back to November 2019—when I was pregnant, exhausted, and racing against the clock to launch a funnel by the last Friday of the month. Spoiler: that Friday was Black Friday, and I had no idea what I was doing. But in that one week, I made $4,000 from a tiny email list and a simple low-ticket offer.

This story isn't just about making money during the busiest shopping season of the year. It's about the moment I realized I could sell the work of my brain instead of just my hands—and how that one accidental Black Friday opened my eyes to the power of leveraged offers, funnels, and making money even when you're not actively working.

If you're a service provider or coach who wants to scale without burning out, or if you think you've "missed the boat" on Black Friday because you didn't plan months ago—this episode is for you. I'm sharing exactly what I sold, how I sold it, and five strategies you can use right now to make Q4 your most profitable quarter yet.

What You'll Learn:

The full behind-the-scenes story of my first accidental Black Friday sale (and the $4K week that followed)
Why Q4 is actually BUILT for buying—and how to tap into that seasonal psychology
5 things you can sell for Black Friday without creating a complicated campaign
How to use Black Friday offers to seed your premium services and build your buyer list
The power of adding order bumps and upsells to maximize revenue (even on low-ticket offers)
Why you don't need a huge audience or a five-day deal campaign to make serious money
My own Black Friday strategy for this year

100. ChatGPT Interviews Me! Special 100th Episode

Thu, 23 Oct 2025 08:00:00 -0400

We made it to 100 episodes! Cue the confetti and nursing-baby-in-lap dance party 🎉

For this very special episode, I handed the mic over to ChatGPT (okay, technically just a list of questions it came up with) and let it interview ME. And yes, it was as fun and chaotic as it sounds.

I answered everything from my morning routine (spoiler: it involves gratitude and coffee with frothy milk) to my biggest business lessons as a mom of six scaling a coaching business in part-time hours.

Whether you’re an eldest-daughter-overachiever, an Enneagram 3 in denial, or a mom trying to build an empire while wiping butts (literally), this episode is for YOU. We went deep, we went honest, and I didn’t hold back on what I’ve learned in 100 episodes of raising both kids and a business.

Here’s what you’ll hear:

My real (non-aesthetic) morning routine with 6 kids
The Broadway soundtrack that perfectly captures my parenting mood
What I’d do if I wasn’t a business coach (hint: it involves babies)
The weirdest place I’ve Voxered a client from
The offer advice I think is holding moms back
What I actually learned from my first 10K month
Why content calendars kinda suck (and what to do instead)
My hot takes on ChatGPT, funnel myths, red flag clients, and million-dollar moms

This episode is a behind-the-scenes pass into what it really looks like to build a sustainable business that supports your family—without losing your mind or yourself in the process.

99. The $10K to $20K Leap: Why Most Moms Get Stuck at 'Pretty Good Money' and How To Get Unstuck

Mon, 06 Oct 2025 07:00:00 -0400

Have you ever hit that point in your business where you’re making pretty good money—maybe consistently hitting $8K, $10K months—but you feel completely maxed out? You can’t take on another client without losing your mind, but you’re not quite at the income goal you want either?

We get it. You’re stuck at what I call the $10K to $20K ceiling—that specific revenue plateau where you’re making good money, but you’re trading every available hour for it. And as moms, we don’t have unlimited hours to give.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:
• Why the $10K ceiling hits mom entrepreneurs especially hard (and it’s not what you think)
•The three critical mindset shifts required to break through to true scalability
•The five specific leverage points that can double your revenue without doubling your time
•How to maintain your one-to-one work while building scalable income streams
•The biggest fears keeping CEO moms stuck at six figures (and how to overcome them)

If you’ve been feeling maxed out on one-to-one work, not hitting your income goals yet, but thinking “I literally cannot take on another client”—this episode is for you.

98. From Services to Strategy: Why Selling Coaching Feels Harder (and How to Fix It)

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 04:00:00 -0400

Back when I was selling done-for-you funnels, ads, and launch plans, I could close a client in my sleep. Discovery calls were a breeze: I'd walk them through my strategy, they’d say yes, and we’d get started.

But when I pivoted to coaching? Crickets.

Even with a dozen free calls and solid experience, I couldn’t sell a single coaching package. It was infuriating.

If you’ve ever felt that way, this episode is for you. Because here’s the truth: moving from selling services to selling strategy isn’t just a business model change—it’s a mindset shift. You're not just selling your hands anymore... you're selling your brain. And that requires a totally different kind of marketing, messaging, and confidence.

In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what makes this transition so awkward and how to fix it. Whether you're pivoting to coaching, adding a course, or trying to sell a more leveraged offer, you'll walk away with a better understanding of how to position, message, and sell what’s inside your head (and why it’s worth premium pricing).

What you’ll learn:

The invisible "double sell" keeping your coaching offers from converting
Why free calls didn’t work (and what did)
How selling a vision is different from selling a deliverable
Messaging mistakes that sabotage your strategy offers
Three ways to shift your sales process for higher-ticket coaching
What services still teach you about leveraged offers (and why you don’t have to ditch them completely)

Your Next Steps:

Share this episode with a business bestie who's pivoting into coaching.

97. Are You Growing Or Scaling? Here's How To Know

Tue, 16 Sep 2025 06:00:00 -0400

I see this ALL the time: moms telling me they want to scale—but when we dig into it? They actually need to grow first.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between growth and scaling (they’re not the same, mama!), and giving you a super clear way to figure out where YOU are right now so you can stop spinning in circles and start moving forward strategically.

We’ll talk about what it really means to grow, what scaling actually looks like, and how to figure out which phase you're really in...even if you feel like you're stuck in that awkward, messy in-between.

Whether you’re booked out but burned out, dabbling in one-to-many offers, or stuck with a fully-custom service you can’t scale -- this episode will give you so much clarity on what to focus on now and what can wait.

Also: I need your help. I’m currently playing detective, and I want to hear from YOU. I’m on a mission to learn exactly where my audience is at right now: what your biggest challenges are, what you're struggling with, and what kind of support you actually need to grow or scale. If you're open to answering a few questions, I have something really special for you: an exclusive bonus training pulled straight from my high-level mastermind vault.

To get it: DM me the word "detective" on Instagram, answer a few quick questions, and I’ll send it your way.

What You’ll Learn:

The difference between growth and scale (and why it matters more than you think)
How to tell if you’re stuck in the messy middle
What to focus on right now to get unstuck
The strategic shifts that make scaling actually work for moms

If that’s you right now, this episode is gonna be your wake-up call (and roadmap).

I’m breaking down the FIVE biggest business blind spots I see all the time with my clients (and have absolutely experienced myself) - the hidden things that keep you stuck, spinning your wheels, and second-guessing your next move.

This isn’t about adding more to your plate. It’s about finding the real root of what’s not working… and focusing your energy where it will actually move the needle.

Whether you’re in a growth rut or gearing up for a big Q4, this episode will help you pinpoint your blind spot and give you action steps to fix it (starting now).

Here’s what I’m diving into:

The #1 mindset shift that makes everything else click
Why your content might be great - but STILL not converting
The missing piece in your sales system (and what to fix first)
How to get known for your signature genius so your dream clients think of YOU
What to do when you keep losing momentum every quarter

Ever sit down to work and feel completely paralyzed by your endless project list? You know the feeling...you've got half-finished funnels, course ideas bouncing around your brain, client work piling up, and that nagging voice asking "What should I actually be focusing on right now?"

In this episode, I walk you through the exact framework I used with my mastermind client Katherine to cut through the noise and create a crystal-clear action plan for fall. You'll discover my ORDER Method: a simple but powerful system that will transform how you approach your business priorities forever.

Why I told her to completely ignore her "lead problem" first
The backwards mistake that was keeping her stuck in analysis paralysis

The "catch-22" that was secretly sabotaging her revenue

94. So...August Was Chaos. Here's My Back To School Reset

Wed, 27 Aug 2025 07:00:00 -0400

If you're crawling out of summer feeling tired, behind, or wondering if you even still like your business, this episode is for you!

Every single August, I somehow convince myself that I'm going to get so much done while the kids are home. Then reality hits - kids are home 24/7, capacity plummets, and that perfectly planned summer productivity goes out the window. This year was particularly chaotic for our family, and I'm sharing the raw, honest truth about what August really looked like behind the scenes.

But here's what I was reminded of: August isn't supposed to be a growth season for CEO moms...it's a maintenance season. And if you're just maintaining at minimum viable? That's not failure, that's reality. In this episode, I'm sharing exactly how I'm getting re-inspired heading into September, why simplifying (not adding more) leads to the biggest breakthroughs, and my three-step plan for turning the last four months of 2025 into your most profitable yet.

What You'll Learn:

The real reason why August can leave CEO moms feeling behind (and why you're actually right on track)
My secret 3-step formula for reconnecting with your inspiration when you're feeling completely burned out
Why I can cut what my clients are doing by 50% and get them BETTER results (this mindset shift changes everything)
The one file every business owner should keep that instantly reignites your passion and clarity
How to turn the chaos of summer into the rocket fuel for your most profitable Q4 ever
Behind-the-scenes of my most chaotic summer yet - and the breakthrough that came from it all

92. Want to Build a Business That Can Run Without You? Start With This

Tue, 12 Aug 2025 07:00:00 -0400

What if your business could keep making money — even when you’re on the floor playing with your kids?

That’s not just a pipe dream, mama. It’s absolutely possible… but only if you stop trying to automate confusion.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the real first step to building a business that runs without you — and it’s not funnels, ads, or a shiny new course. We’re talking about your signature offer and signature message — the one thing you want to be known for, the transformation you deliver on repeat, and the thing that will become the engine for every scalable offer you create in the future.

I’ll walk you through:

Why “all roads” in your business should lead to one core offer (your "Emerald City" offer)
How to design that offer with scale in mind (even if it’s 1:1 for now)
What it takes to nail your scalable messaging so your offer sells in webinars, emails, and content — without a single sales call
The order of operations for building a leveraged, automated business
How to set your business up to thrive when you’re at 20% capacity, not just when you’re at 100%

I get it—this year has thrown me more curveballs than I can count. But here’s what I want you to know: the year is NOT over. You’re not behind. You’re just getting warmed up.

In this episode, I’m sharing why Q4 is the best season for business growth, even if the rest of the year felt like a slow crawl.

Why Q4 is actually your business’s secret weapon

90. A Peek Into the CEO Moms Unofficial Group Chat

Mon, 21 Jul 2025 17:00:00 -0400

Ever feel like there’s a secret group chat where all the CEO moms are sharing the strategy secrets you somehow missed? Same. While that chat doesn’t actually exist (sadly), after interviewing dozens of powerhouse mom entrepreneurs for the Real Secrets of CEO Moms Summit, I can confirm: if there were one, these would be the messages.

In this episode, I’m sharing the 7 eerily consistent patterns I saw across every single interview—whether these moms were rebuilding from burnout, scaling to their first $100K year, or holding down multi-6 or 7-figure businesses with babies on their hips.

This isn’t just about strategy—it’s about sustainable strategy. It’s about running a business that respects your life, your energy, and your season. If your biz has felt chaotic, heavy, or just off lately? This is the episode you need.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Why almost every CEO mom hits a breaking point before her biggest growth
The real impact of simplifying your offers and systems (it’s more money, not less!)
How to tell if your launches are out of alignment (and what to do about it)
Why your nervous system is the loudest voice in the room
The role of true community and mentorship in CEO mom success
How motherhood doesn’t break your business—it refines it
What sustainability really looks like when you’re building long-term

PLUS—I’m going live TOMORROW to spill my own real secrets: what’s been happening behind the scenes in my business (that I’ve never shared publicly before). The good. The messy. The full picture.

89. The Real Secrets of CEO Moms - 2025 Edition

Wed, 16 Jul 2025 07:00:00 -0400

What if I told you that 2024 was my lowest revenue year since I started coaching—and that admitting this might be the most important thing I share with you all year?

In this raw and honest episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why so many brilliant CEO moms have been struggling lately (spoiler: it's not just you), what's actually working in 2025, and why I created The Real Secrets of CEO Moms Summit for the third time—because we all need these real conversations right now.

After finding out I was pregnant the day before October 7th, navigating war anxiety while building a business, and watching my revenue drop despite having solid systems in place, I realized something: the game has changed, and nobody gave us the memo. But here's what I discovered after having intimate conversations with 12 incredible CEO moms—the ones thriving aren't doing MORE, they're doing LESS, but smarter.

If you've been feeling like you're the only one struggling to keep up, questioning whether you've lost your magic, or wondering why what used to work just... doesn't anymore, this episode is your permission slip to stop pretending everything is fine and start building a business that actually fits your real life.

(Note: the audio sounds different at different points because I was recording this post-bronchitis and had to go back and fix a few parts where my voice just got too hoarse)

What you'll learn:

Why 2024 hit different for so many CEO moms (and why that's actually normal)
The 4 strategies I'm seeing work consistently right now for sustainable mom businesses
My "driving on the highway" analogy that will change how you think about long-term business building
Why doubling down on 1-2 offers beats chasing shiny objects every time
How to build for the long game when you're raising babies and businesses
The real reason I created this summit (hint: I needed these conversations as much as you do)

88. You’re the Bottleneck — But Not in the Way You Think

Tue, 10 Jun 2025 08:00:00 -0400

I’m nursing my baby on my lap as I record and yes, it’s noisy—but it’s real life. This episode? It’s short, but it’s pivotal.

I’m walking through why you are the bottleneck in your business—even if it’s not because of your team or your systems. It’s because your energy is stretched thin. I used to do custom work, launch like crazy, and it all stopped when real life kicked in. My business needed me, and that’s the crux of the problem.

Spoiler: The fix isn’t hiring more people. It’s about pulling the plug on the belief that you must be “on” all the time.

What You’ll Learn:

The difference between being the bottleneck personally vs. systemically
How to build a business model that runs—even when you can't be “on”
Daily and weekly rhythms that power growth without burnout
How to design offers that don’t collapse when you step away
Evergreen funnels, automation, and layering offers for passive flow

Why this is a gamechanger:

You don’t need to burn it all down—you need to remodel. If you’re tired of feeling like you're spinning your wheels and ready to build something that sustains both your business and family life—this episode is your wake-up call.

86. The Filter I Use to Make Every Business Move as a Mom (Or, Stop Trying to Run Your Biz Like You Don't Have Kids)

Thu, 29 May 2025 09:00:00 -0400

Okay, listen. If you’ve ever tried to implement some single Bali babe coach's business advice—like “just block off a day to batch a month of content”—while you’re wiping a butt, heating up lunch, and calming a meltdown? This episode is for you.

Because I’ve HAD IT with strategies that assume you have zero kids, unlimited time, and maybe a live-in chef.

Here’s the thing though—this isn’t just about bro advice. It’s about our own expectations. The way we beat ourselves up when we see someone else doing something that looks amazing and think, "Why can’t I do that too?"

You know that moment where you’re like, “I should be able to do that,” and then feel like a failure when you can’t? Yeah. That.

I used to think I was just bad at business. But then I realized…I was just measuring myself against the wrong standard.

So I created my own. And now I run everything—offers, content, launches, all of it—through a filter I call the CEO Mom Decision Matrix. And it changed everything.

You’ll hear:

What finally clicked for me in March 2020 that changed everything
The real reason traditional biz advice isn’t working for you
My 4-part "CEO Mom Decision Matrix" for making aligned moves
The content + sales strategy that lets me make money during nap time
Why your so-called "limitations" are actually your biggest leverage

Oh and by the way—if you want to see how this plays out in your own biz? I’ve got a brand new free resource for you: Lazy Leverage. It’s 8 sneaky-smart ways to grow your audience and make more money using stuff you’re already doing every day. Go grab it right now: https://yaelbendahan.com/lazyleveragepod

85. How to Have Your Best Summer Ever as a CEO Mom

Tue, 20 May 2025 07:00:00 -0400

Summer's coming in HOT, mama, and with it—kids home, routines flying out the window, and that "wait, how am I supposed to keep this business running?!" feeling. In this part-three finale of the Summer Series, we’re diving into what it actually takes to thrive through the summer months as a CEO mom.

If you’ve been wondering how you can stay present with your kids and keep your business humming along—without the guilt, chaos, or complete loss of sanity—this one’s for you.

I’m sharing real strategies, mindset shifts, and mom hacks that have helped me navigate summers with babies, toddlers, tweens, and teens (yes, all at once).

What you’ll learn:

Why your old "summer expectations" might be setting you up for resentment
The 3 key containers every CEO mom needs (no, not Tupperware)
How to actually enjoy summer with your kids and keep cash flowing

84. Your Summer Biz Plan When You're Already Making 6-Figures

Fri, 16 May 2025 11:00:00 -0400

Ready to make summer your most profitable season yet—without burning out?

If you’re already bringing in consistent $8K–$12K+ months but still find yourself scrambling every summer (read: doing client work from the back bedroom while your family’s on vacation), it’s time for a change.

In this episode, I’m walking you through exactly how to plan your summer like a CEO -- not a freelancer. This isn’t about doing more. It’s about finally leveraging everything you’ve already built.

I’ll break down the 5 key areas you need to audit, simplify, and systemize so you can scale smarter -- even when your kids are home 24/7.

If you’ve been running a 6-figure business that feels like a full-time job, I made this one for you.

Here’s what we cover:

How to audit your business assets and double down on what’s already working
Simple evergreen systems that sell while you take time off
Visibility strategies that scale without daily content
What to delegate now so you’re not the delivery bottleneck
Using summer to set yourself up for a killer Q4

Tue, 13 May 2025 08:00:00 -0400

In this episode, I’m breaking down Part 1 of your summer survival plan if you’re still building toward consistent 5–10K months or booking out your 1:1s. We’re talking real mom-life logistics, money planning, and what to actually focus on (spoiler: it’s not posting every day).

I also share what I personally do to prep for summer in a house full of kids, from pre-selling intensives to redefining consistency, so you can head into summer with peace AND profit.

And yes—you’ll hear a little chaos in the background because my baby made a guest appearance. Real CEO mom life!

What you’ll learn:

The real cost of going dark over summer—and what to do instead
My 3-part summer prep system: Numbers, Pre-Sell, System
How to create recurring income NOW to cover July and August

82. You're Not "Stuck" - You Just Know Too Much

Tue, 06 May 2025 07:00:00 -0400

Ever feel like your brain is a cluttered browser with 47 tabs open… and 3 are playing music?

You’re not broken. You’re just saturated—not with market trends, but with information overload. You’ve grown your business, taken the courses, tried all the strategies. Now you’re standing knee-deep in knowledge… and paralyzed by it.

This episode is your wake-up call to stop chasing the next strategy and start filtering out the noise.

In this refreshingly honest episode, you’ll hear:

Why “I feel stuck” is often just code for “I’ve consumed too much and can’t see straight anymore”
What brain saturation looks like in real-time (hello 10 abandoned Trello boards and 5 launch plans)
How to use the sacred pause to spark your next move from alignment, not pressure
A simple 4-step reset to get out of overwhelm and into momentum again—without buying another damn course
The real reason you’re not selling your offer and how to reconnect with it so it starts working again

Whether you’re navigating content chaos, second-guessing your funnels, or just feel like everything is “off,” this episode gives you permission to pause, prune, and powerfully reset.

✨ Because you’re not stuck. You’re evolved. And it’s time your strategy caught up.

🔥 Doors are open: Your MOMentum Era is officially in session!

If you're craving clarity in your next chapter, this 3-week, audio-led coaching reset is for you. You’ll realign with what actually works for your life, tap into sustainable strategies, and finally stop outsourcing your authority to every sales page that crosses your feed.

You're showing up, doing #allthethings — but the momentum feels...off.

Today, we're diving into the strategy side of a business reset — how to realign, recalibrate, and reclaim your CEO energy (without burning everything to the ground).

Why "misalignment" (not burnout) is probably the real reason things feel so heavy lately
How to do a Calendar Reset that actually reflects your real life (kids, Cheerios, teething and all)
The Offer Simplification Strategy that will instantly breathe life back into your sales
My "Minimum Effective Dose" Marketing Plan that keeps you visible without stealing your sanity
The bonus Trust Bridge move that can turn tiny offers into big momentum

80. Before You Burn It All Down, Listen To This (Part 1: Mindset & Energetics)

Tue, 22 Apr 2025 07:00:00 -0400

The Mindset Reset You Didn't Know You Needed

If you’ve ever stared at your laptop while working and thought, “Maybe I should just burn it all down and start over,” this episode is your invitation to pause and breathe. This is Part 1 of a special two-part series, and we’re diving into the mindset and energetics behind that misaligned, stuck feeling that creeps in when your offers, your content, or your launches stop landing the way they used to.

In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact journaling prompts and mindset shifts I use (and give my clients) to help you figure out what’s still aligned — and what’s simply outdated. You don’t need to start from scratch. You just need a reset that matches who you are now. Let’s clean house (strategically, not emotionally) so you can show up like the powerhouse CEO Mom you’ve become.

✨ Don’t miss Part 2 next week — where we’ll go deep on the strategy. But first, do this work.

You don’t need to burn your business down. You just need to rebuild from where you are now, not from who you were when you started. If this episode resonated with you, tag me on Instagram @theyaelbendahan with your biggest “aha” moment — and if you loved it, share with a mompreneur friend and don’t forget to rate and review!

79. Exactly how I approach investments to get an ROI every single time

Thu, 10 Apr 2025 07:00:00 -0400

Are you sitting on a goldmine of business courses you've never opened or programs you barely log into?

Let's be real, mama — we've all bought that course that's still sitting unopened or joined that membership we barely log into. I've been there too, and I've spent well over six figures on my business education throughout the years.

In this episode, I'm sharing exactly how I approach investments to ensure I get an ROI every single time - not by implementing everything perfectly (hello, that's impossible when you have kids!), but by being strategic about what I invest in and how I use it.

In this episode you'll discover:

The game-changing mindset shift that will make you feel WAY less guilty about not completing every module of every course you buy 🙌
My three non-negotiable questions I ask before making ANY business investment (these have saved me from so many bad decisions!)
Why you should be incredibly selective about WHO you learn from (especially when it comes to mentors vs. skill-building)
The #1 mistake I see people make after investing in high-touch programs like Masterminds (please don't do this!)
How I used AI to help me implement new strategies within my already packed mom schedule

Getting a return on your investments isn't about being perfect — it's about being strategic. Your time and money are too precious to waste on investments that don't move the needle for your business. This framework will ensure that every investment you make pays off in real, tangible results.

Ready to get a massive ROI on your next business investment?

If you're looking for a high-touch container where I personally ensure you get a massive ROI, applications are open for my CEO Mom Mastermind! We work with moms who are currently booked out of their 1:1 services and want to build leveraged offers with minimalist marketing strategies and automated lead and sales systems. The investment is increasing TONIGHT, but if you get your application in before then, I'll honor the current rate if you join us within 7 days.

Tue, 08 Apr 2025 09:00:00 -0400

Real talk: Are you actually ready for a mastermind? (Not everyone is)

As someone who's both joined masterminds and led them, I've seen the transformative power they can have—but I've also seen entrepreneurs waste thousands on the wrong investment at the wrong time.

In this no-fluff episode, I'm breaking down the honest truth about masterminds: when they're worth it, when they're not, and how to know which camp you fall into right now.

You'll learn:

The 5 clear signs that show you're genuinely ready (or not ready) for a mastermind
What a true mastermind should actually provide (versus glorified group programs)
How to calculate the complete value beyond just dollars
The straight-up questions to ask before investing

This conversation is all about helping you make the right decision for YOUR unique situation—whether that means joining a mastermind now or waiting until the timing is better.

🔥 HONEST CONVERSATION 🔥 Have questions after listening? I have 6 spots left in my CEO MOM Mastermind (investment increases April 10th), but I only want people who are truly ready.

77. Simplifying (& Crushing) Her Launch While Being a Present Mom with Katherine Bignon

Tue, 01 Apr 2025 07:00:00 -0400

Meet Katherine Bignon - this amazing brand stylist and mom of FIVE who just pulled off her first course launch during the holiday madness and made over $5K! After years of having a million business ideas but struggling to actually implement them, she finally found her groove in the CEO Mom Mastermind. Katherine managed to launch her course in DECEMBER of all months while still keeping up with family dinners and all those special holiday traditions with her kiddos.

In this episode, you'll hear:

How we scrapped her complicated launch plan and replaced it with something she could actually do while being present for her family (yes, even in December!)
The jaw-dropping moment when her launch hit a 5.5% conversion rate (that's nearly DOUBLE what most people get!)
What it meant to finally work with someone who gets that your business and motherhood aren't separate things
Why joining the mastermind didn't add more to her already full plate - but actually made everything clearer and simpler
How she pre-sold her course and then built it WITH her students after they'd already paid (genius move for busy moms!)

Ready to stop choosing between your business dreams and family time?

If you're nodding along to Katherine's story, thinking "that's exactly what I need," head to yaelbendahan.com/mastermind to learn more about the CEO Mom Mastermind. There are 6 spots left before the investment goes up by over $2000 on April 10 so this IS THE BEST TIME TO JOIN US.

This isn't about squeezing one more thing into your crazy schedule - it's about finding a way to grow your business that actually works WITH your life as a mom, not against it.

76. My exact gameplan for a $300K year in 2025

Tue, 25 Mar 2025 11:00:00 -0400

Today I'm getting super real with you about my exact game plan for hitting 300K in 2025. And no, I'm not going to tell you to "just launch a course" or "post Reels every day" or any of that generic advice that doesn't work for real mom life or a nonexistent.

Do you feel like you're constantly juggling client work, content creation, and family responsibilities... but still not seeing the revenue growth you know you're capable of? I've been there! With six kids (including a baby who still doesn't sleep through the night), I had to get strategic about how I scale my business without sacrificing my family time.

In this completely transparent episode, I'm sharing:

My actual offer suite (with real numbers!) that will bring me to 300K while working just 20 hours a week - spoiler alert. It's a little boring.
Why I'm thinking of my business as a "spider web" instead of a ladder (this completely changed my approach)
The exact leverage points that allow me to serve 50+ women without burning out
How I've designed my entire business around my family's rhythms (Jewish holidays, summer breaks, and everything in between)

Friend, if you've been trying to follow conventional business advice that leaves you exhausted and still not hitting your income goals, this episode is your permission slip to do business differently.

I'm showing you how having FEWER offers and working FEWER hours can actually lead to MORE impact and MORE income. Because scaling your business as a mom isn't about doing more - it's about being strategic with the time you have.

🔥 EXCITING NEWS: I currently have 6 spots left in my CEO Mom Mastermind before the investment increases on April 10th. When you apply, I'll send you a personalized Loom video mapping out exactly how we'd work together to hit your specific income goals. DM me "mastermind" on Instagram with any questions!

75. I Leveraged Too Hard! My AI Experiment and How To Use AI Without "Selling Out"

Tue, 11 Mar 2025 18:00:00 -0400

Have you ever been tempted to hand over your marketing to AI? Maybe you've heard all the advice about "leveraging technology" and thought, "This could save me so much time!" But what happens when that well-intentioned shortcut leads to zero sales?

In this vulnerable share, I'm pulling back the curtain on my recent launch that completely flopped after I went all-in on AI. I learned the hard way that there's such a thing as leveraging "too close to the sun."

My "back to basics" approach that immediately improved my marketing results

74. The ‘Busy Mom’ Business Trap: Why You’re Always Working But Not Growing

Tue, 11 Feb 2025 08:00:00 -0500

Have you ever felt like you're working ALL day but somehow got nothing done? You know that feeling - coffee in hand, ready to be productive, but between your toddler's meltdown over the wrong color cup and falling into an Instagram scroll hole, suddenly it's bedtime and your to-do list is barely touched.

Can you relate to:

Taking client calls while changing diapers?
Working during nap time (if you're lucky enough to get one)?
Constantly feeling busy but not seeing the revenue to match?

I get it, mama. I've been there too - trying to do #allthethings while juggling mom life, but watching your bank account stay the same despite your endless hustle.

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why so many of us get caught in this "busy trap" and - more importantly - exactly how to get out of it. And it might not be what you think... because working harder isn't the answer (thank goodness, right?).

A 90-minute intensive with me ($2,000 value)

51. What's YOUR Version of Success? The Mindset Shift You NEED to Stay In the Entrepreneur Game

Tue, 23 Jul 2024 07:00:00 -0400

Have you ever felt like a so-called “failure” in your business because you're not hitting the same revenue milestones as other entrepreneurs you see online?

Maybe you're constantly comparing yourself to coaches who seem to "make 6-figures overnight" while you're working to juggle your business with motherhood. What if I told you that you might already be more successful than you realize?

As ambitious mom entrepreneurs, we often fall into the trap of defining our success solely by our income - but there's so much more to the story.

In this episode, I'm challenging you to redefine what success really means for YOU. We dive deep into:

Why the freedom to walk your daughter to school or have lunch with your spouse might be more valuable than a 6-figure launch
How to identify alternative "data points" that show you're already succeeding (even if your revenue isn't where you want it yet)
The importance of recognizing different seasons in your business and life (and why comparing your journey to others' is a losing game)
My personal reflections on success while on maternity leave with baby #6

This is the most crucial mindset shift you need to make so you can stay in the entrepreneurial game long-term. If you're ready to celebrate your wins and feel more fulfilled in your business journey, this episode is a must-listen!

Ready to design a business that gives you true freedom and flexibility? For a limited time, you can grab my Maternity Leave Program for just $34 (price increasing soon!). This comprehensive course (dropping in Fall 2024) will show you exactly how to set up systems that allow your business to thrive even when you step away.

The cost/benefit analysis you should make when you decide to invest in something new
The hidden ROI in any program you join and how to maximize your investment even if you don’t watch a single video

29. Steal This Simple Strategy to Book Out Your 1:1 (And Create Income Overflow)

Tue, 16 Jan 2024 08:00:00 -0500

Shannon DePalma is a financial coach for 6-figure female entrepreneurs who know how to make money...but not necessarily the best way to manage it! She helps you create money buffers, pay off debt, and actually create financial freedom instead of wondering where on earth all your income goes each month.

In this special episode, I help Shannon create a strategy to not just keep her 1:1 booked out, but also incorporate VIP Intensives with a SUPER simple email funnel to build a waitlist, increase her monthly income AND sell people on working with her at her highest level without even having to get on a sales call! We also mapped out a plan to grow her audience in preparation for launching a more leveraged course offer later on in the year - without having to create any new resources for lead funnels.

You're going to want to take MAJOR notes here, because this can work for almost anyone with a 1:1 higher ticket offer who doesn't want her income to be capped by her client capacity.

What we talk about:

- The importance of offering various entry points to engage potential clients and the necessity of audience growth before launching a course

- The struggles of having a signature offer versus constantly creating new offerings within the coaching industry and "offer creation burnout"

- The simple waitlist funnel strategy for booking out her 1:1 without having to do sales calls by using VIP intensives to qualify leads

And don't forget, the CEO Mom Mastermind is still enrolling! Link is below.

28. [CLIENT CASE STUDY] From Booked Out and Burnt Out to Five-Figure Months and Too Much Free Time with the Funnel Flippers

Tue, 09 Jan 2024 09:44:54 -0500

In this episode, I interview my clients Kylee and Sami about how they went from booked out and burned out to five-figure month waitlists and too much free time!

It's SO important to pay attention to WHAT they did to achieve this: the power of taking consistent, small actions and allowing those actions to compound over time. So often we think its the big, splashy actions and launches and campaigns that will do it for us when it's really the sticking to the actions that will work for US - and doing them over and over.

Want the exact system they used to create their signature offer and book themselves out?

17. [REAL TALK] Do you NEED to hire a coach who's a mom?

Tue, 03 Oct 2023 14:21:14 -0400

Do you need to hire a business coach who’s a mom? Or does it not really matter?

This has been a heated debate online many a time and I wanted to dive into the pros and cons of hiring a coach who’s also a parent when YOU’RE a CEO mom.

We discuss the Facebook post that triggered this conversation, the “millionaire mom” trend that’s sweeping the coaching industry, why my clients specifically work with me, and why I’ve hired both coaches who were and weren’t moms - and my reasons for doing so!

You’re going to LOVE this episode especially if you’ve been stuck on who to hire next as your mentor - and I’ve loved sharing it with you!

Tue, 26 Sep 2023 10:10:53 -0400

“What would you do if you wanted to make $5-10K in the next month?”

This is something I’ve discussed with my clients in the past - how to create a cash injection - but I want to dive a little deeper in this episode. Instead of “what the heck can I pull out of nowhere to sell” it’s more of a “What can I sell that’s actually aligned with my offer suite and schedule…that will generate an extra $5-10K?”

And that’s what I’m sharing with you in this episode! I’ve pulled back the curtain to share the exact strategies I use when I want to fill a new premium offer, or just collect the potential revenue that I may have been leaving on the table for the past few months.

14. 7 Habits of Highly Successful CEO Moms

Tue, 12 Sep 2023 08:15:02 -0400

"What do your most successful clients have in common?"

My client asked me this question a while ago and I cast my memory back to all of my past (and present) clients to find the common denominators between the ones who succeeded and stayed the course, and the ones who didn't.

In this episode, we'll talk about what "success" actually means, what qualities define whether you're likely to "make it" in the ever-evolving online space, and 7 small tweaks you can make to your mindset that will shift you from surviving entrepreneurship to actually thriving through the inevitable ups and downs in your business.

And if you'd like to thrive and profit through the holiday season this year while balancing gift shopping, holiday baking and family visits, my Q4 Sales Moneymind is for you! Learn how to run a Black Friday sale that generates cash up-front AND sets the stage for more sales down the line - even if you have a small audience or minimal time!

The Moneymind is $77 now and will be going up to $111 at midnight September 13 so make sure to hop in now for my Sales Explosion Masterclass, all of my Black Friday email swipes, 2 weeks of group coaching, and 2 bonus coaching calls to workshop your Q4 sales strategy! >>> yaelbendahan.com/moneymind

Are you thinking about Black Friday yet?

Don't freak out! In this episode, I'll share how to turn Q4 into your most profitable quarter without burning yourself out, launching a bajillion things, or being glued to your phone during Black Friday and holiday sales.

I also talk about how I made almost $15K last Black Friday while preparing for my son's bar mitzvah, and how I utilized it to continue making strategic sales on the backend well into 2023!

I share the 4 different "whys" behind Black Friday/flash sale offers and how my client turned her last Black Friday offers into a leveraged income funnel that ALSO sets her up for DFY clients on the backend!

Oh - and best of all, I'll give you a little peek BTS of our CMA coaching call where I fill you in on the most important thing you want to consider when creating a lower-ticket experience in your business.

This episode is PACKED with value so you're going to want to take notes!

11. What to Do When Nobody's Buying

Tue, 22 Aug 2023 09:07:33 -0400

One of the biggest fears when launching an offer is "What if nobody buys?"

Even if you've launched it before. Even if you know it's an absolutely brilliant offer.

In this episode we're gonna dive into a topic that's all about getting to that finish line in your launches and what the heck to do when nobody seems to be buying your offer. It's a tough spot to be in, but trust me, you're not alone.

Oh, and get ready for some behind-the-scenes info about my last launch, what I did when nobody had bought and it was the last day of open cart, and how I've consistently run five-figure launches since 2019. It's not always rainbows and unicorns, but I've learned a thing or two along the way.

10. 5 Common Beliefs I Refuse to Subscribe to as a CEO Mom of 5

Mon, 14 Aug 2023 17:00:00 -0400

I dropped a post on Facebook last March and it went WILD! So I'm going to share the story behind the post and I'm talking 5 things I hate about…entrepreneurial advice that doesn't work for moms.

Or, rather - it didn't work for ME. Maybe it works for you. Who knows?

What we talk about:

My Facebook post that went mini-viral last March…and why
Why I never say never about anything
The 5AM club
Deep Work - what works and what doesn't
How to make the most of minimal work time
The toxic "outsource manual labor" philosophy
The 24-hour-Beyonce quote and why it makes me 😡😡😡
75 Hard

Enjoy and thanks in advance for sharing with your CEO mom biz bestie!

8. BTS of My Summer Schedule (and how to fit your business around your life)

Tue, 01 Aug 2023 07:00:00 -0400

This episode is brought to you by the annual family trip (i.e. my parents and siblings and assorted grandchildren traveling to the Galilee for a week of chill, lots of pool time, and the occasional outing).

I wanted to give you a peek behind the scenes of my summer schedule as a CEO mom of 5, and how I utilize a rule that my coach taught me to plan out my day and most important tasks!

My favorite part about the summer (and how I'm taking advantage of it)
The 100/50/10 rule and how you can use it in your day-to-day planning
How to fit your business around your life (and take family vacations)
My TOP priorities this summer (when I said BTS I meant it!)
What I'll be focusing on with my MOMentum Mastermind clients in Q4 - and why

Quotes

"I am not a morning person and I'm over trying to be one. I'm not getting up early if I don't have to!"
"If you are currently going through a season of lots of little children and you're like, I just cannot do anything at all ever… I promise you it is going to pass and you're going to look back really, really fondly at those days when everyone went to bed by 7:30."
"Intentional screen time and I say intentional because I don't like to do it by default. I decide - okay. Now is screen time. I'm not going to feel at all guilty about it. My kids are getting this relaxing time so I can get my work time in during the day."
"I know exactly what my most urgent priorities are this summer so I can focus on those and not on ANYTHING else."

4. Stressed about the "summer slowdown"? (Why you don't need to be)

Thu, 01 Jun 2023 00:00:00 -0400

A common theme that comes up in the business world around this time of year is "the summer is always slower/I always have a summer slump/plan for less revenue in the summer".

And if you're a mom, you might not necessarily be worried about less people buying in the summer - you just might not have as much time to do client work so you DON'T want to be signing more clients in the summer!

(Or maybe it's a combination of the two.)

I want to challenge these messages and talk about how you can maximize your summer and your limited work time to get the most out of it - revenue and otherwise.

What we talk about:

The concept of a summer slowdown in business
8 reasons why people might still make purchases during the summer
Defining personal success metrics beyond revenue
Shifting offers and messaging to appeal to customers during the summer
Maximizing productivity and revenue while balancing personal and family life during the summer season
How to turn a slower season into an opportunity - and help your clients see it the same way

Quotes:

"Don't buy into the belief that people don't buy during the summer."
"Consider shifting your messaging and offers to appeal to customers during the summer."
"Define what success actually means to you - don't borrow someone else's definition."
"Any offer that you can show people how to implement in small spaces of time is a good one."

Remember, summer can be a time of opportunity and growth for your business. Don't let the summer slowdown mindset hold you back. Stay productive, find creative ways to engage with your potential clients and customers, and make the most out of this season.

But when I listened back to it, I realized that all of the principles I was talking about a year ago STILL WORK. So I'm excited to share this overview of my CEO MOMS Method, as well as what's always going to work in business, in any industry!

Mon, 08 May 2023 05:01:41 -0400

The Raising Your Business Podcast is HERE! We're talking all things mom life and biz balance, the inspiration for this podcast, and why I believe that building a business and raising a family have so many parallels.

In this FIRST episode of Raising Your Business, I share my journey from a SAHM of 4, to starting my online business to having my 5th baby while making more money and working less than I ever had.

What we talk about

My business building journey and how I went from $2K/mo in January 2020 to $15K cash collected in February 2020 :)
The importance of creating a business that doesn't burn you out
The parallels between business building and family raising
What really creates momentum
May MOMentum and what's coming up this month for you!

Quote

"I didn't have kids to send them out for someone else to take care of while I worked my butt off to break even."

"I realized that I had to baby-proof my business. I needed my business to be able to run in a way that was actually sustainable for me."

"There is a lot of pretend vulnerability and authenticity. Like, authenticity has become more of a buzzword. And so it's very hard to know who's telling the truth, right?"
