Mommy's on a Call - Holistic Health & Wellness for Modern Moms, Work-Life Balance, Self-Care Habits, Entrepreneurship, Mindful Parenting

Jessica Jenkins is the Co-Founder of Better Battery Co., the first and only Carbon-Neutral Alkaline Battery.

Growing up in the family consumer electronic business, Jessica gained passion for entrepreneurship. While completing her degrees, Jessica worked closely with her father’s carbon neutral alkaline battery company and was instrumental in the creation of Better Battery Co.

As a busy mother of two beautiful young boys, Jessica quickly realized the ever present need for batteries, a guilt-free option for disposing of them, and a calling to make eco-friendlier switches for her family when possible.

Jessica divides her time engaged in private practice as a clinical social worker and honored to be supporting individuals in their journey to become better versions of themselves, and working alongside her sister in bringing their vision of Better Battery Co. to fruition.

In this episode, Jessica and I chatted about

• Launching a product business while working full-time and co-parenting
• Explanation of what carbon neutral is
• Teaching your children about climate change and why as a mom she feels it’s her responsibility to take part
• The maternal mental health issues moms are facing daily from overwhelm of day-to-day life, perinatal depression and lack of community
• Questions you can ask your friends to check in on them without asking “how are you doing”
• How to self nourish yourself through self nurturing not self-care
• What to do when you start to feel anxiety coming on and how to cope with those moments so you’re not the “angry mom”
• Recognizing when you need a break and how to ask for support
