Whether they’re crushing a side hustle, commanding the boardroom, baking cookies, playing pickleball or spreading peace around the world, moms are making it and making a difference. “How Mom Made It!" is a podcast dedicated to showcasing mom creators.Produced by MomsTown, and hosted by Mary Goulet and Heather Reider, “How Mom Made It!” is on a mission to share the stories of makers, bakers, creators and inventors to serve as an inspiration for other moms to take action on their ideas and dreams.Mary & Heather share 5 reasons why they love doing the podcast and why they believe all moms should be listening.1. Moms are inherently creative. This podcast helps you nourish your sparks of creativity. One little spark can ignite so much joy.2. We learn something new in every episode. Every mom comes to the show ready to share tips and advice. Trust us when we say, we’re taking notes during every episode.3. It’s fast fun! Moms are busy. We intentionally keep every episode short and shiny. 4. It’s about the mom next door and the mom across the globe. Stories come in all shapes and sizes and “success” is unique to every person. For one mom, success might mean making a fortune; for another, success might be learning how to turn chaos into calm and finding strategies for simplifying her life. “How Mom Made It!” is on a mission to cover all the bases of success (or, at least as many as possible).5. How Mom Made It! supports moms. We don’t charge moms to come on our show and share their stories. Listening to the show and sharing the show with friends and family helps us help moms. It’s a numbers game. The more listeners we get the more episodes we can do. Listening and sharing supports other moms and that’s a beautiful thing.If you have a show idea or know a mom you’d like to celebrate or recommend as a guest on the show, please be sure to reach out by going to MomsTown.com or send an email to Heather@MomsTown.com or Mary@MomsTown.com
