Imagine yourself five years from now. What are you doing? What have you achieved?

I know what I'd like to achieve this year and a couple of five-year goals. But friend, if I've learned anything as a mom and through the Coronavirus pandemic, it's this - make plans, but don't be surprised if life throws a wrench in those plans and brings something different your way.

My guest on this week's episode of the Gotcha Mama podcast is Alessandra Pollina.

She knows how much can change when running a business and growing a family at the same time. She is a wife, mom to her four-year-old son, owner of Pollina PR and marketing agency, and host of the Female Millennial Entrepreneur Podcast.

Alessandra has had her own business for eight years and has learned a LOT about expectations, changing needs and desires, and the ability to be flexible in business and in motherhood.

We talk about:

Why she started her PR agency, How she grew a business while raising a child, as well as some of the unexpected challenges she experienced along the way What changed in the eight years that she's had her business And the advice that she would tell a mom who's in the first year of trying to run a business and may be feeling discouraged.
