Today we’d like to introduce you to Whitney Gardner
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
Hey there! My name is Whitney Gardner, I am a mama to a daughter, a wife, a dog mama, and CEO of The Bold Mama Co.™ an online service-based business with a mission to help empower mamaprenuers to find balance and crush their online business goals without sacrificing family time. I am a coach, have appeared on guest podcasts, have my own podcast called “Bold Mama Boundaries”, have a blog and website, am active and consistent on social media, and have a passion for public speaking.
I have always had an “entrepreneurial” spirit and knew I was meant to do more with my life than work a corporate job. I started a podcast, blog, and website back in 2020 called Words with Whit, and nothing came from it at the time but it was the beginning of me exploring the digital space as an entrepreneur.
At the time it was my “COVID” project, but I had a lot of upcoming life changes and it wasn’t the right time to build a business during so much uncertainty in the world. Although there was a lot of “negative” that came from “COVID”, there was also a lot of positive and it helped me to gain the knowledge and resources to work mainly online.
After some time passed and I became a mama in 2022, I realized how truly challenging it is, and that mamas need more support, resources, and guidance. Once my family and I decided we were going to move to Texas from California, I created a plan to quit my full-time job to pursue full-time entrepreneurship instead.
Once I started my business I realized how much I loved it, and wanted to combine my passion for business with personal development to help other mamaprenuers thrive as a women, as mamas, and as business owners.
My mission is to help mamaprenuers achieve a harmonious balance between their business aspirations and family life by focusing on five key pillars: self-discovery, setting boundaries, building confidence, cultivating a positive money mindset, and mastering time management.
I understand the unique challenges that come with being a mother and an entrepreneur, and I am dedicated to providing personalized coaching that supports women in navigating these dual roles effectively. Through my comprehensive coaching programs, I guide mamaprenuers in uncovering their true passions, aligning their personal and business values, and setting clear, actionable goals that lead to sustained success and fulfillment.
My approach is holistic and transformative, ensuring that each client develops the skills and mindset necessary to thrive both personally and professionally. I help women establish strong boundaries to protect their time and energy, build unshakable confidence to pursue their dreams, and adopt an abundance mindset that attracts financial prosperity. By implementing effective time management strategies, my clients learn to maximize their productivity without sacrificing precious family moments.
I am truly committed to fostering a supportive and empowering community where mamapreneurs can grow, connect, and achieve their highest potential!
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
No, it has not been a smooth road. It has been difficult within my own personal development and business journey as a mamaprenuer myself. Balancing the demands of running a business while being present for my family has been one of the most significant struggles. There were times when I felt overwhelmed by the constant juggle, questioning whether I was giving enough to both my business and my family.
Additionally, setting and maintaining boundaries was not always easy. Early on, I often found myself people-pleasing and struggling to say “no,” which led to burnout. Overcoming self-doubt and embracing my worth took time and consistent effort, and I had to learn how to break through my own limiting beliefs holding me back from my greatest success and potential.
Despite these struggles, each step has made me stronger and more determined to help other mamapreneurs navigate their paths with greater ease and success after realizing the secret formula to balance both roles.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?

I am dedicated to helping mamapreneurs thrive by providing the guidance, support, and tools they need to succeed in all areas of their lives.
We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
Success, for me, is defined by continuous self-improvement and personal growth rather than external comparisons. I believe in comparing myself only to who I was yesterday, striving to be 1% better each day. This approach ensures that my progress is consistent and meaningful, allowing me to grow at my own pace and in my own direction. By focusing on small improvements daily, this has lead to extreme results over time.
This philosophy of success emphasizes becoming more empowered, positive, and confident over time. Each day presents new opportunities to learn, adapt, and enhance my skills and mindset. Whether it’s through overcoming challenges, acquiring new knowledge, or refining my abilities, I see each step forward as a victory.
