Welcome to another episode of the Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast, where we dive deep into the world of parent entrepreneurs, or as we like to call them, Parentpreneurs. Today, we’re debunking myths and delivering actionable insights on how to thrive in your dual roles.

The Controversial Truth About Being a Parentpreneur

Myth-Busting: Work-Life Balance vs. Work-Life Integration

We kick off the episode by shattering a common myth: that being a parent and an entrepreneur is about work-life balance. Spoiler alert: it’s not. It’s about work-life integration. We discuss why this shift in perspective is crucial for your success and well-being.

Inspired by Seth Godin’s insights, we delve into the difference between being just another logo and being a brand. If you’re sorting your life by price—choosing the cheapest daycare, the quickest meal prep—you’re a logo, not a brand.
