#13 PARENTING WHILE BEING AN ENTREPRENEUR
Parenting while building a business? It’s not for the weak.
Juggling clients, travel, and running a company while raising kids is a whole new level of chaos. But we wouldn’t have it any other way.
In this episode, we’re getting real about what it’s like to parent as entrepreneurs—how we handle tantrums (without losing our sh*t), why each kid needs a different approach, and the biggest game-changer when it comes to raising emotionally strong kids.
No one’s got this parenting thing 100% figured out, but we’ve learned a few things along the way. Let’s get into it.
In this episode of Spill the Tea, we share:
00:01:08 – 00:03:23 | Why Parenting as Entrepreneurs Hits Different
Running a business is demanding. Parenting is even harder. Put them together, and you’ve got a full-blown rollercoaster. We talk about the highs, the lows, and why the chaos is totally worth it.
00:03:23 – 00:08:00 | Co-Regulation: Your Kids Are Learning From YOU
Ever wonder why your kid’s energy shifts based on your mood? It’s because they’re constantly picking up on your emotional state. We break down why co-regulation is key to raising emotionally strong kids and how to stop passing your stress onto them.
00:08:12 – 00:17:05 | Handling Tantrums Without Losing It
Tantrums are inevitable, but how you react to them changes everything. Kirsty shares a powerful story about a public meltdown with Harvey, how she kept her cool, and the surprising lesson it taught her about parenting with patience and trust.
00:17:05 – 00:31:02 | The Self-Care Hack Most Parents Ignore
You can't be the best parent if you're running on empty. We get real about the guilt parents feel around taking time for themselves and why making self-care non-negotiable is actually the best thing you can do for your family.
00:31:02 – 00:36:20 | Why Breathwork is a Parenting Superpower
When the stress hits, breathwork is our go-to tool for not snapping at the kids. We explain how box breathing can help you reset in the moment and teach your kids to manage their emotions, so they don’t explode over the little stuff.
00:36:20 – 00:16:00 | Different Kids, Different Needs
There’s no one-size-fits-all parenting style. Each of our kids needs something completely different from us—Carson thrives on love and reassurance, Noah craves structure and independence, and Harvey? Well, he’s just here to remind us who's really in charge..
00:48:12 – 01:00:17 | Raising Confident, Resilient Kids
The world can be a tough place—so how do we prepare our kids for it? We talk about helping them build confidence, handle bullying, and develop the kind of resilience that’ll carry them through life’s biggest challenges.
