The degree, the second degree, the big deputy director job. Then she had a baby and hit the quiet, spiraling question so many of us know: this is not it. In this episode we go deep on what actually comes next. Daniella is a third-generation business owner, a business buyer, and a commercial real estate agent who now acquires and grows Main Street businesses, all while raising young kids. We talk about the dull ache of discontentment that shows up in early motherhood, why working harder will quietly deplete you, and the reframe that finally lets a business grow. We get into the \"no one's coming\" reality of being the hunter, gatherer, and caregiver all at once, how to build a support system so you stop asking one person to be your savior, and how to know which person to call when you need a shoulder versus the hard truth. Plus the seasons nobody warns you about, and why the small moments (yes, including the popcorn game) are the whole point. Find Daniella on Instagram @thedanielladevine and at thedanielladevine.com. Come build your business differently inside the free BossMom Community at bossmom.com/community, with networking events, mindset workshops, daily mindset audios, and a dedicated app off social.
