After a long and necessary break from podcasting, Rizza is back with an honest look at what the last year taught her as a mom of two and a business owner.

In this episode, she shares what really shifted after going from one child to two, how she restructured her schedule to support part-time work, and what it looked like to scale her branding and website design business without burning out.

This is a transparent behind-the-scenes conversation about redefining success, building systems that support real life, and taking messy action even when the path isn’t perfectly clear.

If you’re navigating growth while juggling motherhood, limited time, or a changing season of life, this episode will remind you that your business can evolve with you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What changed when she transitioned from one child to two while running a business

• How she made part-time hours work without sacrificing growth

• Why hiring support and business coaching was a turning point

• The accidental booking strategy that helped prevent burnout

• How planning ahead created more control and clarity

• Why connection matters more than conversion in content creation

• How networking (online and offline) supports long-term growth
