239. Redefining Success and Sustainable Leadership for Mom Entrepreneurs with Chantell Preston, author of The Success Lie
Episode Description
What if the version of success you’ve been chasing… is the very thing burning you out?
In this powerful and honest conversation, Angela sits down with Chantell Preston—CEO, board member, and mom of three—to unpack the truth about “having it all,” why so many high-achieving moms feel exhausted, and what it really looks like to lead a business and a life with more clarity, calm, and compassion.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but it still feels heavy… this episode is for you.
Together, we explore how to release perfectionism, lead without burnout, and redefine success in a way that actually supports your life as a mom—not competes with it.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
- Why the idea of “having it all” is keeping mom entrepreneurs stuck and overwhelmed
- How to lead your business—even on the days you’re not at 100%
- The role of emotional intelligence in building strong, connected teams (and families)
- How to stop saying yes to everything without guilt
- Practical ways to reduce the invisible load using support, systems, and even AI
- Why making your life easier is not “cheating”—it’s strategic
- How to move from burnout and pressure to calm, grounded leadership
Reflective Question:
What would change in your business and your life if you stopped measuring success by exhaustion… and started measuring it by how supported you feel?
