How a math teacher rewrote the story she was telling herself and grew into the great life she deserved.
Natalie Martin always loved numbers, and despite seeing no Black female role models getting their advanced-level math degrees, she pursued what she loved. But still, her ambition was limited to being a math teacher and military wife, moving through nine different bases with her husband and five kids. On the plus side, moving so much exposed her and her kids to many different cultures. But after being in and out of the classroom, taking on tutoring jobs so she could be home with her kids, Natalie knew she was destined for more. She just couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t coming toward her.
“Nothing was making any headway, and it was sucking the life out of me. I knew I was moving through life with no direction. I could see these big dreams, but I had no way of getting there. And then it’s as if I heard God say, ‘You have to renew your mind.’” She took that to mean breaking ties with all the organizations she’d been part of and starting from scratch. She emptied her mind of everything she’d been telling herself and began listening to motivational speaking—literally five hours a day. “I had to get my mind out of thinking ‘I can’t’ to thinking ‘I can.’ What I was thinking about myself, that was the problem.”
It took about two years for her to move past that—and then Covid hit. “Covid really gave me the push that I needed. I had been for years talking about writing a book and doing different things and stepping out in entrepreneurship. But I didn’t find my niche,” she says. But she loved counseling, and when she saw how moms were struggling with kids being home and everything being shut down and having to consider home schooling, she decided to create a workshop to help them. She’d done all the self-development work; she was ready. And now she had a purpose.
The Monday after everything shut down, she held her Zoom workshop and three people showed up. But she put the recording on her Facebook page and it got hundreds of views, with people sending her messages of gratitude. Now she is building her client list and preparing to leave the legacy for her kids that she feels her grandmother left for her. And that legacy is the most important thing to her. “I’m standing on the ceiling that my grandmother made for me; my kids are going to be standing on the ceiling that I make for them. So I got to go higher, because they will not be paying for college. They will not be struggling.”
Read more about Natalie’s advice for leaving the legacy you want in the inspiring new book Moms Who Boss Up Post-Pandemic, by Tam Luc, the author, educator, and podcaster dedicated to helping women “boss up.” The book collects 16 interviews with moms who are side hustlers and multitaskers, who faced the uncertainties of the Covid pandemic—and other obstacles—by embracing their strengths and finding their authentic paths. They have so much to share and to teach, and while every story is unique, there is creativity and perseverance at the core of each one.

Turning her back on parental expectations, Allison found success on her own terms doing what she loves
Allison Almond has always been, as she says, “tidy.” When she was eight years old, her mom would park her in the greeting card aisle at the grocery store and then do her shopping while Allison happily organized the Get Wells and the Happy Birthdays, putting each card in its proper place.
But parlaying that interest into a career was not in the cards, so to speak, for young Allison. “My parents were raised to believe that you just need a steady-income job. You work in an office, you collect a paycheck, and your job is not your life. You probably don’t even like it. And that’s how I was raised.” After years of trying to fit into that mold, Allison finally broke free and is succeeding as a professional organizer. “I have hit my stride,” she says. “Now every day is fun.”
While she knows that every step brought her to where she is now, the journey was very long, and she’d have liked to do it sooner. “I wish that I could go back to my 18-year-old self and say, ‘Don’t listen to them. Just go follow your dreams!’ Instead, I was a very compliant, obedient child and young adult.”
Then the turning point came. “I was doing the same things and trying to get different results, but I was getting the same results,” she remembers. “And so I woke up one day saying, ‘I can’t live another day this way.’” No more dead-end office jobs, no more 9-to-5. She knew she could clean houses, so that’s Q where she started. After a few years she launched a personal concierge service—this was before Uber Eats and Instacart, she notes!—and became sought-after by high-end clients. She was her own boss, but this still wasn’t her dream come true. Finally, she put her dream out to her online community, asking for help rebranding herself as a professional organizer. One suggestion stuck—The Organization Maven—and her new business was born.
Throughout her cleaning and concierge years, when she was working long, hard hours as a single mom, it was her daughter who inspired her to keep going. “Lots of times I would look over at my sleeping kid, oblivious to all the work that I’m doing, and think, ‘Okay, I have to pay for food tomorrow. I have to pay for rent tomorrow.’ If I didn’t have my daughter, I wouldn’t have the drive or the determination to keep going. I knew I needed to give her a better life and teach her that hard work pays off.”

Get rid of the mom guilt and set an example for your kids by using your voice and achieving your dreams.
Angela Bell went through her childhood knowing she was going to be a lawyer. But the job wasn’t exactly what she expected. “I’ve always believed that there should be justice and there should be a just society. Ever since I was a little kid, I always sought to make things fair and equal for people, and something about the legal profession appealed to that side of me. I wanted to make it okay for everybody on all sides,” she says. But although she worked for a great law firm and enjoyed the experience, she could see that the ways she wanted to impact people couldn’t really be done in a courtroom.
So her next move was to go into business with her dad—another lifelong dream—which was enormously successful until he suddenly passed away in a car accident. Angela had given birth to her twins not even two years earlier, and as she and her family tried to keep the business on track they began to struggle. Ultimately the business failed. “Over time I can see it as a blessing in disguise—not losing my dad, obviously—but losing the business,” she says. “I wasn’t happy anymore. After my dad was gone, it wasn’t my dream anymore. And I was working so hard and these long hours, coming home, making dinner, putting my kids to bed, going back to the office after that so that I could work more, getting three, four hours sleep a night, literally just working myself death.”
One thing losing her dad and her business taught her was that she could survive tragedy and pick herself back up. And if she could do it, other people could do it. And going back to her childhood ideas of helping others, Angela pivoted to coaching—specifically coaching women with big dreams who were afraid to let themselves go for those goals, or who felt it was somehow inappropriate if they were moms. “My kids came early and everybody kind of looked at me like I was just supposed to stay home all of a sudden,” she recounts. “And I’d always been an ambitious person. I loved big goals. But anytime I’d say, ‘I’m going back to work,’ I would get a response like ‘Really? Don’t you think you should be with your kids?’ And something about that really bothered me. It just crawled under my skin. Why do people think that becoming a mom suddenly means that women can’t do other things? Or that we don’t want to do other things, or that we don’t still need to do other things to feel fulfilled?”
Now she helps women reclaim their voices and give themselves permission to go after their goals without feeling bad about it. Not just for the sake of the women themselves but because, she says, society loses when these women exit the workforce. “They are brilliant, creative, strong, problem-solvers. They’re compassionate, they’re so many things. And when we put them in a box and we say, ‘This is where you have to stay now. Feel really bad if you try to venture outside that box,’ the whole world misses out. I want to do something about that.”

After 20 years as an entrepreneur, she is able to help women leverage their messages and create the lifestyle they want through her unique book messaging strategies.
As an entrepreneur running two successful businesses, she’s always learning and growing. But her most valuable lessons came from striving to be a better parent.
Annie Hardock loves math. It comes easily to her, and she knows why. Once you know the fundamentals, you just have to apply them, she says. Any new problem is solvable when you understand the basics.
She brings this mindset to her life and her work as well. When the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the in-person math center for kids that she had spent 10 years building, she took her classes online. Not only that, she saw what an incredible opportunity had been created for her to impact more kids.
While fully acknowledging how devastating the pandemic was and still is, she was literally jumping out of bed with excitement at the idea that now she could reach children all over the world with her programs, not just the kids in the community. “What inspires me to wake up every day and get excited is when I see opportunities. When I see a crisis, I say, ‘Well, what kind of solution can I provide?’ And that’s math—it’s a way of thinking.”
Initially, Annie became an entrepreneur to spend more time with her son. But her first business, a systems-consulting firm, still required her to commute into the city to see clients. She didn’t want to keep missing her son’s milestones, so she knew she had to re-create her situation. So even though it was 1996 and people were still accessing the Internet through their phones, she started an Internet-based business so that she could work from home. Being home with her son also taught her a lot about unconditional love and how important it was for her to manage her own emotions to be an appropriate model for him.
Annie has much more to share—including how she pulled out of a three-year depression after her divorce—which you can read about in the inspiring new book Moms Who Boss Up Post-Pandemic, by Tam Luc, the author, educator, and podcaster dedicated to helping women “boss up.” The book collects interviews with moms who are side hustlers and multitaskers, who faced the uncertainties of the Covid pandemic—and other obstacles—by embracing their strengths and finding their authentic paths.

She had no grand plan, no big dream: “I just started moving.”
Cheryll Dahlin is a self-described social butterfly. Being alone inside she feels cooped up. Networking and connecting with people she is energized. So while her motivation for leaving the workplace to be a stay-at-home mom after her third child was understandable—this was to be her last child, she’d already missed the youngest years of the other two and she really wanted to be there more—it was destined not to work out well.
Pregnant, she moved with her family to a new town so her husband could take the great job that would support the whole family, and then the pandemic happened. So not only was Cheryll “stuck at home with a newborn,” she says, they couldn’t go out and meet any of their new neighbors and create a new social network. “I just started sinking into this hole,” she remembers. “Everything was closing in and I was like, ‘I don’t want to live like this.’”
What pulled her out was a desire to lose the excess weight she had gained in her third pregnancy. She joined a 30-day fitness challenge designed for weight loss which was also, she soon realized, “a mindset challenge in disguise.” It changed the way she thought about everything. “It showed me that I have the power to make those decisions. I can change my future if I want to. I can write my own stories.”
She started moving, just walking around her neighborhood with her baby, listening to a friend’s podcast about motherhood. That got her thinking about starting her own business, so she launched an Instagram account called @SocialwithCheryll. As a social butterfly, she thought she could start a social media marketing company. “I started dabbling in that and I was like, ‘I don’t want to be anyone’s employee.’ So one day I woke up and I was like, “Why don’t I just do ‘Mom Boss Motivation’?” I’m a mom boss, or I want to be a mom boss, and I want to motivate other moms. So I created the handle “Mom Boss Motivation,” and from there it just kept growing and growing on Instagram.”
Now there’s a Facebook group and a podcast, where at times her kids are special guests. “It’s taught me a lot about myself and what I can accomplish. And my kids love it too. We listen to it every Tuesday. I’ve included them and I’ve always wanted to include them. That’s why it’s mom first, boss second. I see it as motherhood catapulting me into Mom Boss life. When they are doing their thing, I can still have my thing. And we can all do it together.”
Cheryll Dahlin’s story is just one of the inspiring journeys featured in Moms Who Boss Up Post-Pandemic, by Tam Luc, the author, educator, and podcaster dedicated to helping women “boss up.” The book collects 16 interviews with moms who are side hustlers and multitaskers, who faced the uncertainties of the Covid pandemic—and other obstacles—by embracing their strengths and finding their authentic paths.

A degree in accounting but a passion for ministry led Pastor C to a new calling as a coach and counselor
Like most high-schoolers, Cynthia Hearse applied to college with the intention of earning a degree that would get her a good-paying job. But when she got that bachelor’s in accounting, she cried instead of celebrating. She knew accounting was not the career for her. Nevertheless, she went out on the hunt for a job, and when nobody hired her, she accepted that she had a different calling. She began what has now been more than 30 years of work with SJMBC: The Word Church in Wharton, Texas.
Female pastors were not common back in the day, and though she aspired to lead the church, the most she felt she could do was work within the church. But one day she got invited to a women’s retreat and decided to attend. Leaving her regular day-to-day routine and meeting a group of women with whom she could share her fears and dreams changed Cynthia’s life. Finding that safe space inspired her not just to finally see herself as pastor of the church—which she has now become—but also drove her to coaching, so she could be that model for other women who find themselves at a crossroads, struggling with emotional issues, or unsure how to pursue or discover their purpose.
“I don’t believe that we ever get beyond the expectations of others; it kind of stays with us,” Cynthia says. “But I think that the more comfortable we get with ourselves, the more we embrace who we are, then the less weight the expectations of others have over us.”
You can hear much more of Cynthia Hearse’s story in the inspiring new book Moms Who Boss Up Post-Pandemic, by Tam Luc, the author, educator, and podcaster dedicated to helping women “boss up.” The book collects 16 interviews with moms who are side hustlers and multitaskers, who faced the uncertainties of the Covid pandemic—and other obstacles—by embracing their strengths and finding their authentic paths.

With no “mompreneurs” out there to show her how they did it, Dai decided she’d be that girl for others
In college, Dai Smith used to organize her friends’ dorm rooms. She even started helping professors organize their offices! She was great at it, and she knew others hated doing it. But it wasn’t until she found that professional organizers got paid for their service that she understood it could be a career choice.
But she tucked that information away, got her college degree, entered Corporate America, and started a family. And still, she organized and even got certified. Trying to balance her own life—children, a job that required travel, a husband who worked long hours—was good practice. Finally she started taking on paying clients, building her business, while still keeping her corporate job. Being a “solopreneur” is a challenge but Dai says “I hold on to my ultimate goals, how my possibilities are endless.”
And now, in addition to helping clients organize their homes, she is helping entrepreneurs—including moms starting side hustles like she was—because she never found that person who could help her. “When I started, I was searching for somebody that I knew, or somebody who knew somebody, who was a mom, a wife, a professional, an entrepreneur who could give me some guidance. And there were not many people. So I said, “I’m going to be the one. I’ll be the one to figure it out, because I’m the organizer, I’m the systems nerd, I’m that girl. I’m going to figure it out and I will help others figure it out because I think there are many moms who have these goals, but they may put them to the side because they have a family.”
But Dai gives full credit to the women who have gone before. “I am standing on great shoulders. When I think about my ancestors, when I think about even my mom, how hard she and my grandmother worked, how many sacrifices they’ve had to make to help me to be where I am today.” And they were models for accomplishing what they set out to do. Now Dai wants to be that model for young people. “Possibly some little girl, some little boy, will see me doing these things and think, ‘I can do that, too.’ Whether that’s my children or my friends’ kids or whoever. I’m thinking about legacy, and that inspires me.”
Dai Smith’s story is featured in the new book Moms Who Boss Up Post-Pandemic, by Tam Luc, the author, educator, and podcaster dedicated to helping women “boss up.” This collection of interviews with moms who are side hustlers and multitaskers, who faced the uncertainties of the Covid pandemic—and other obstacles—by embracing their strengths and finding their authentic paths. They have so much to share and to teach and while every story is unique, the thread of perseverance and creativity is common to all.
