Raising Your Business: For Moms Growing Their Business and Raising Their Family
Hey there business moms! Welcome to my corner of the Internet. I'm Yael Bendahan - mom of 6, business coach for moms, host of the Raising Your Business Podcast and founder of CEO Mom Academy. If you're tired of hustling day in and out trying to get your online biz to the income level you're dreaming of, hearing business advice that just WILL NOT work for your life as a mom (5 AM club, anyone? NOPE), and trying to figure out HOW to reach that "work less and earn more" holy grail that's been dangled in front of you since you first Googled "work at home ideas for moms"? Well, that's about to change! We help incredible business moms JUST LIKE YOU to go from struggling solopreneurs to Confident CEO Moms! Inside this show, we'll be diving into the highs and lows of raising your family AND building your business. I'm giving you my best strategies for working smarter, not harder - and building more leveraged income with content that converts, an offer suite that sells, and the systems to keep your business AND home running smoothly - well, most of the time! Nothing is off the table! And to make it even better it won't just be me! I am bringing in some of my biz besties, mompreneurs & fellow industry leaders to give you their best stuff on building your business SUSTAINABLY! If we haven’t met before, let me tell you a little bit of our backstory! I started my virtual assistant business as a mom of 4 little boys, just wanting to make an extra $1K a month to help support my family. After growing a 6-figure service based business, and having my 5th child (and first girl!) in 2020, I pivoted into coaching moms through building their businesses in a way that worked FOR their family. Multiple 6-figure years later (for me AND my clients), I want to share everything I know about raising a family while being an ambitious business owner!

We made it to 100 episodes! Cue the confetti and nursing-baby-in-lap dance party 🎉
For this very special episode, I handed the mic over to ChatGPT (okay, technically just a list of questions it came up with) and let it interview ME. And yes, it was as fun and chaotic as it sounds.
I answered everything from my morning routine (spoiler: it involves gratitude and coffee with frothy milk) to my biggest business lessons as...
Have you ever hit that point in your business where you’re making pretty good money—maybe consistently hitting $8K, $10K months—but you feel completely maxed out? You can’t take on another client without losing your mind, but you’re not quite at the income goal you want either?
We get it. You’re stuck at what I call the $10K to $20K ceiling—that specific revenue plateau where you’re making good money, but you...
Back when I was selling done-for-you funnels, ads, and launch plans, I could close a client in my sleep. Discovery calls were a breeze: I'd walk them through my strategy, they’d say yes, and we’d get started.
But when I pivoted to coaching? Crickets.
Even with a dozen free calls and solid experience, I couldn’t sell a single coaching package. It was infuriating.
If you’ve ever felt that way, this episode is for you....
I see this ALL the time: moms telling me they want to scale—but when we dig into it? They actually need to grow first.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between growth and scaling (they’re not the same, mama!), and giving you a super clear way to figure out where YOU are right now so you can stop spinning in circles and start moving forward strategically.
We’ll talk about what it really means to grow, wh...

If that’s you right now, this episode is gonna be your wake-up call (and roadmap).
I’m breaking down the FIVE biggest business blind spots I see all the ...
Ever sit down to work and feel completely paralyzed by your endless project list? You know the feeling...you've got half-finished funnels, course ideas bouncing around your brain, client work piling up, and that nagging voice asking "What should I actually be focusing on right now?"
In this episode, I walk you through the exact framework I used with my mastermind client Katherine to cut through the noise...
If you're crawling out of summer feeling tired, behind, or wondering if you even still like your business, this episode is for you!
Every single August, I somehow convince myself that I'm going to get so much done while the kids are home. Then reality hits - kids are home 24/7, capacity plummets, and that perfectly planned summer productivity goes out the window. This year was particularly chaotic for our fam...
Everyone thinks Q4 strategy starts with planning your Black Friday sale in October. But here's what I learned: the businesses that actually win during Black Friday and the holidays? They started setting up that success back in September.
In this special episode, I'm giving you the recording of my live training where I break down my proven Q4 strategy that I used to make $50K in just 60 days! This is the strat...
What if your business could keep making money — even when you’re on the floor playing with your kids?
That’s not just a pipe dream, mama. It’s absolutely possible… but only if you stop trying to automate confusion.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the real first step to building a business that runs without you — and it’s not funnels, ads, or a shiny new course. We’re talking about your signature offer and signature m...
Feeling like your year didn’t exactly go as planned? Maybe you’re wondering if it’s even possible to turn things around before the year ends.

In this episode, I’m sharing why Q4 is the best season for business growth, even if the rest of the year ...
Ever feel like there’s a secret group chat where all the CEO moms are sharing the strategy secrets you somehow missed? Same.

In this episode, I’m sharing the 7 eerily consistent patterns I saw across every single...
What if I told you that 2024 was my lowest revenue year since I started coaching—and that admitting this might be the most important thing I share with you all year?
In this raw and honest episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why so many brilliant CEO moms have been struggling lately (spoiler: it's not just you), what's actually working in 2025, and why I created The Real Secrets of CEO Moms Summit f...
I’m nursing my baby on my lap as I record and yes, it’s noisy—but it’s real life. This episode? It’s short, but it’s pivotal.
I’m walking through why you are the bottleneck in your business—even if it’s not because of your team or your systems. It’s because your energy is stretched thin. I used to do custom work, launch like crazy, and it all stopped when real life kicked in. My business needed me, and that’s the crux ...

Okay, listen. If you’ve ever tried to implement some single Bali babe coach's business advice—like “just block off a day to batch a month of content”—while you’re wiping a butt, heating up lunch, and calming a meltdown? This episode is for you.
Because I’ve HAD IT with strategies that assume you have zero kids, unlimited time, and maybe a live-in chef.
Here’s the thing though—this isn’t just about bro advice. It’s ...

Ready to make summer your most profitable season yet—without burning out?

Ever feel like your brain is a cluttered browser with 47 tabs open… and 3 are playing music?
