#awinewith Rebekah Pozzoli, Founder of Intuitive Mummas  In this episode we talked about... * How Bek turned a deeply isolating motherhood experience into a business that creates real community.  * Building a business from a genuine gap in the market can create powerful impact.  * Sometimes the best business ideas come in your hardest seasons, not your easiest ones.  * Growing organically through word of mouth, flyers and local connections still works.  * Balancing motherhood, study, work and business requires constant prioritising and flexibility.  * Verbal agreements can become very expensive lessons in business.  * Protecting your intellectual property, systems and admin access matters from day one.  * Resilience in business often comes from believing in the mission when things fall apart.  * Your business can evolve as you evolve, and that is not a weakness.  * Women in business do not need to have it all figured out before they begin.  Get more SPARK in your business…  SPARK Instagram Community |  [https://www.instagram.com/sparkbusiness.global/]Instagraminstagram.com/sparkbusiness.global [https://www.instagram.com/sparkbusiness.global/]  FREE SPARK CEO Scorecard |  [https://sparkbusiness.global/the-spark-ceo-scorecard]SparkbusinessFREE The SPARK CEO Scorecard — SPARK [https://sparkbusiness.global/the-spark-ceo-scorecard] $15k Quarterly Cash Grants for Women in Business |  [https://sparkbusiness.global/spark-women-in-business-grants]Sparkbusiness2026 SPARK Biz Grants — SPARK [https://sparkbusiness.global/spark-women-in-business-grants] Join The SPARK CEO Hub |  [https://sparkbusiness.global/spark-ceo-hub]SparkbusinessThe SPARK CEO Hub 2026 — SPARK [https://sparkbusiness.global/spark-ceo-hub]   Thank you to IP Australia for supporting the SPARK podcast and women in business.

#awinewith Fi Mims, Founder of Fi Mims Photography fimimsphotography.com.au [http://fimimsphotography.com.au/]  In this episode we talked about... * Why women in business over 40 face a completely different set of challenges and opportunities.  * How your business should evolve alongside your life, energy, and responsibilities.  * Building a successful business is not just about profit, it’s about sustainability.  * Personal branding starts with understanding your “why”, values, and ideal client.  * You don’t need to share everything online—just what aligns with how you want to show up.  * Authenticity is your biggest advantage in a world of AI-generated content.  * Storytelling is one of the most powerful ways to connect and stand out.  * Content can be simplified into three pillars: authority, personal connection, and promotion.  * Waiting too long to get help in your business will slow your growth and lead to burnout.  * Outsourcing (even small tasks) can completely transform your capacity and scalability.  * Your business should be designed around the life you want—not the other way around.    Get more SPARK in your business…  SPARK Instagram Community | https://www.instagram.com/sparkbusiness.global/ [https://www.instagram.com/sparkbusiness.global/] FREE SPARK CEO Scorecard | https://sparkbusiness.global/the-spark-ceo-scorecard [https://sparkbusiness.global/the-spark-ceo-scorecard] $15k Quarterly Cash Grants for Women in Business | https://sparkbusiness.global/spark-women-in-business-grants [https://sparkbusiness.global/spark-women-in-business-grants] Join The SPARK CEO Hub | https://sparkbusiness.global/spark-ceo-hub [https://sparkbusiness.global/spark-ceo-hub]  Thank you to IP Australia for supporting the SPARK podcast and women in business.
