    This week on Life’s a Mom, I sit down with Alexis from Bosses in Heels for a conversation about motherhood, ambition, sacrifice, and what success truly means. 🤍

    May 14 2026

    This week on Life’s a Mom, I sat down with Elena Shamanova Ducoin, founder of MyBeeBear, for a conversation every parent will relate to.

    What started as her own struggle navigating potty training and bedwetting with her children eventually turned into a business designed to help families feel more supported, less stressed, and a little more understood during one of parenting’s hardest phases.

    In this episode, we talk about:
    ✨ The emotional side of potty training and bedwetting
    ✨ The moment Elena realized she needed a real solution
    ✨ Building MyBeeBear from scratch while raising children
    ✨ Motherhood, identity, and balancing family with entrepreneurship
    ✨ The challenges female founders face behind the scenes
    ✨ Why confidence and comfort matter so much for kids
    ✨ Creating a brand with sustainability and real-life parenting in mind

    This conversation is honest, relatable, empowering, and filled with the kind of real motherhood moments parents don’t always talk about openly.
