You know that feeling when you’re juggling client work, family life, and a business dream… and you wonder if it’s actually possible to work school hours only without sacrificing income or success? For so many mum entrepreneurs, the idea sounds impossible, like something that works for other people, but not for you.
In this episode, I’m joined by my client, psychologist and hypnotherapist Dr. Johanna Disselhoff, who shares exactly how she shifted from long nights, overwhelm, and constant guilt into a business that’s profitable, streamlined, and designed around her family. Together, we’ll show you that school hours business coaching is about doing the right things and letting go of the rest.
Dr. Disselhoff’s story is proof that you don’t have to burn out, over-deliver, or spend every spare evening working just to keep your business afloat. Instead, with the right support and mindset, you can create systems, offers, and routines that let you work less and earn more.

Here’s what you’ll learn:
- How to overcome the perfectionism that keeps you from putting your work into the world.
- Why trusting your own ideas is the fastest way to grow sustainably.
- How Dr. Disselhoff created a £20k weekend by finally offering the certification she’d been putting off.
- The role of systems and automations in freeing up time (and how to keep them simple).
- Why streamlining content creation, instead of reinventing the wheel, builds consistency with ease.
- The mindset shift every mum entrepreneur needs to work fewer hours while growing her income confidently.
The truth is, the “math” of your business has to add up. If you’ve only got school hours to give, your strategy and offers need to reflect that. Dr. Disselhoff’s journey shows that when you focus on essentials, stop outsourcing your decision-making, and release the guilt of not doing “enough,” you actually move further and faster.
This isn’t just about business strategy, but permitting yourself to have hobbies again, taking a proper shower without guilt (mums, you know what I mean!), and creating a life that feels lighter and more sustainable.
If you’ve ever thought, ‘I want to grow my business, but I don’t want it to take over my evenings and weekends,’ this episode will give you hope and a roadmap.
You can build a profitable business that works within school hours. It doesn’t happen overnight, but with coaching, clarity, and a focus on essentials, it’s not only possible, it’s sustainable.
So, press play and let this conversation inspire you to start building a business that supports your life, not one that drains it.
And if you’re ready to create your own version of this transformation, I’d love to support you. Book a coaching call and let’s design a plan that works for you and your business goals.
