  • Unexpected Single Motherhood: Melting Imposter Syndrome Through Purpose
    Apr 28 2025

    Thanks for stopping by! We'd love to hear from you.

    Nicole shares her wisdom melting shame and imposter syndrome amidst multiple life transitions; divorce, starting a company, and an unexpected transition to single motherhood.

    Nicole Manstrangelo traded in her successful corporate career in luxury sales and marketing to join her parents in ownership of our 30-year-old family business.

    She implemented “big business” growth strategies that generated immediate and transformative results, and over the course of 7 years, drew the attention of other business owners within the industry and beyond- many of whom were struggling with the same growth challenges her parents were once facing.

    Once she recognized this trend in the small business community, she began to volunteer as a mentor, helping owners apply and integrate these same strategies for success in a hybrid marketplace. Through mentorship, she became aware of the unique needs and challenges faced by many women in business.

    In 2021, she founded The Daily Drip, a media platform providing content, resources, programming, and community to help South Florida business leaders become thought leaders. What makes their content unique is that everything is created by a local industry leader within this market- just like YOU.

    Their 'for us by us' approach to content and programming allows them to support the modern business leader while amplifying the voices of their local industry experts and expanding their capacity for impact.

    From Palm Beach to South Beach, their community continues to expand, evolve and thrive. Their content reaches more than 4,000 subscribers across the tri county and nearly 34k digitally across all social media platforms.
