Birthworker Podcast — The Business Podcast for Doula Entrepreneurs

175. I'm Back! Part Two-Rebuilding from the Ground Up

Kyleigh Banks — The Autonomy Mommy

After the Costa Rica high and the painful decision to leave my marriage, I decided to rebuild everything — starting with myself, my energy, and Birthworker.com...

In this episode, I share the raw, real details of that first chapter of starting over as a single mom and entrepreneur:

  • How reclaiming my energy felt like magic after years of daily fights draining everything out of me...
  • How the exact same “I’ll just do it all because I can” pattern from my marriage had been quietly killing my business too — and what happened when I finally broke the cycle
  • Losing my nanny, stepping into full single-mom mode… and the huge irony: carrying the load alone felt easier without the shadow of a failing relationship...
  • The warp-speed rebuild that had me 99% ready to relaunch by early July… and feeling more like me than I had in years...

If you’re in a season of rebuilding — whether it’s your business, your family, or your whole damn life — this one’s for you.

When you stop pouring energy into what drains you, you finally get to pour it into what lights you up. Sometimes the scariest changes unlock everything else.
