Building a business while raising two young children comes with constant tension, shifting priorities, and a whole lot of trust in yourself. On this episode of Behind The Fold, I sit down with Jessy Marshall, founder of Hive HQ, to talk about growing a leading PR agency while navigating early motherhood, sleep deprivation and the pressure of balancing ambition with family life.

Here's what we cover:
04:46 - The moment she realized Hive was becoming a major player in the PR space
09:25 - Building a team and support system
15:14 - How she made big business decisions while running on little sleep
22:37 - What brands are getting wrong about PR, visibility, and marketing strategy
30:04 - Practical ways product-based and service-based businesses can build visibility in 2026

I hope this conversation reminds you there's no perfect formula for balancing motherhood and ambition. Sometimes it looks messy, sometimes it looks unconventional, but you are allowed to build a life and business that feels aligned for you. Share this episode with a founder, business owner, or mum who needs this reminder.
