263: The Answers You’re Looking For Are Already Inside You

All right. Well, so I'm going to move on to Marissa. Marissa Green, uh, used to climb the corporate ladder, but now she's on a mission to heal the hustle of overworked moms after burning out while balancing a high powered PR career and new motherhood, a stress induced ER visit became her wake up call. I'm sure some of you can relate to this, right?

Determined to find a better way to work and parent, she quit her corporate job and built a thriving employee experience consulting business, um, earning more than ever while taking summers off. Marissa, your journey is an inspiration to many and so I'm really excited to really talk about your 'Reimagine Ambition' program.

So let's, let's go there. Like, tell us about your program, Reimagine Ambition and how we can escape the hustle culture that sounds so glorious to so many right now.

And as Tish said, um, taking the time for yourself. And we'll talk a little bit about that, uh, today in this session, because I think. As working mothers, that is the greatest gift that we can give ourselves is time for ourselves and really being present and in community with other women. And that's really what we're building with the reimagine ambition community, and I couldn't be more excited about what we're building.

But before I tell you all about it, I want to talk about why we're building it. We're here to talk about impact and purpose. And this has been a calling and a pull for me for the past couple of years. And everyone in this mastermind knows I will probably cry at some point during this conversation. Um, but to understand the village first, we have to understand the problem we're trying to solve.

And the problem we're trying to solve is something that you might all be feeling. It is that pull between our drive and our ambition, as well as our desire to be present and joyful with our families. And here's the facts, 74 percent of mothers are now in the workforce. That is more than ever. It has never been that many mothers in the workforce.

And in: 2023

Because we work twice as hard to show that we can do it all with very little support and very little community. It can be extremely lonely. Until now, I can see the world is shifting and a new era is emerging for us as working mothers, where self care support and intentional living are not just possible, but they are the norm.

And I believe so strongly that like now is the time, this is it. Like there is no other time. We're not looking back. We're only looking forward. And we as entrepreneurs and as business leaders and as changemakers, we have the opportunity to do it differently. Right. We have the opportunity to put ourselves first to refill our cups before we refill everybody else's.

Um, and that's what we want to do with the village. We want to create a safe space where overworked moms can truly step out of exhaustion and refill your cup first and do it in community. Because the biggest thing that I've learned through this mastermind, through the communities I've built through my life, is that we cannot do it alone and we shouldn't have to.

And so at Reimagine Ambition, we are all about curating inspirational and restorative experiences to help overworked moms truly recharge from the stress of managing it all. And we're partnering like this is our discovery phase. This is hot off the press. We're launching in October. So get excited. Um, but we're going to be partnering with all different types of coaches, healthcare professionals, and real experts who can help bring you insights that you didn't know before to help you on your journey.

And we're going to have a founders launch in October. So stay tuned and you have all kinds of materials and your freebies in the VIP section. So I hope to see you in the village. And thank you, Melissa, for the opportunity to talk about that.
