Why Your Business Needs Joy, Not Just Hustle | Aurelie Litynski
What if pushing harder did more bad than good to building your business?
Aurélie Litynski helps leaders create happier, more emotionally intelligent workplaces, and in this episode we talk about what happiness, emotional regulation, and real boundaries can look like when you are building a business and raising a family at the same time.
What Aurélie shares:
- How becoming a mom pushed her to redefine what happiness really meant for her, and led her to a business aligned with that
- Why emotional intelligence starts with noticing and naming what you feel, and how small daily practices can help you regulate your energy before you hit burnout
- How time boxing, non-negotiables, and simple rituals can help mompreneurs protect their wellbeing while still growing something meaningful
This stuck with me:
When Aurélie says that happiness is not a destination, it is a skill. That is such a powerful reminder for mompreneurs because joy is not something you wait to feel once life gets easier. It is something you can actively build, protect, and practice in the middle of real life.

👋 WHO AM I?
Hey, I'm Manouchka Elefant, a business coach for mompreneurs with 15+ years in marketing and a specialization in positive psychology. After becoming a mom, I quickly realized that building a business with kids in the mix takes more than ambition. It takes clear strategy, honest support, and the kind of accountability that helps you actually follow through.
That's what led me to create Hey Boss Mama, a space where we talk honestly about business, motherhood, mindset, and what it really takes to stop doubting and start executing.
