036 | Advocating for maternal health and cultivating digital wellness spaces with Adonica Shaw | PT 1

PT 1: Adonica Shaw is a mom of three, speaker, author, founder and advocate for women's health who is dedicated to cultivating digital wellness spaces.

This is the first of three mini episodes of our conversation, which took place in October.

THINGS WE TALK ABOUT:

• What parenting skills she's been able to apply as a founder
• Failing forward in front of our kids
• How her business plans and self-care practices have evolved over the past two years
• Podcasting during the pandemic and showing up intentionally to her work 
• Setting up the Surrender Circle and Wingwomen, learning about company structures and fundraising
• Cultivating digital wellness spaces for women to focus on practical advice and actions

Thanks to Adonica for taking the time to speak with me about showing up imperfectly in front of our children and how she has shifted her work practices to be more thoughtful and intentional!
