    EP 229 The Truth Bomb About Burnout! Entrepreneur Parents; Pretty and Punk Podcast Hosted by Dan Caldwell & Ildiko Ferenczi In this episode of the Entrepreneur Parents Pretty and Punk Podcast, Dan and Ildiko have a raw conversation about a subject that doesn’t get talked about enough, burnout. Not just the kind that leaves you tired, but the deep, emotional kind that shows up when you’re trying to scale a business and raise a family at the same time. They open up about the moments where they felt like they were failing at both, living in two separate worlds, disconnected and depleted, even while appearing successful from the outside. They share personal stories of hitting that wall, what the early warning signs looked like, and the dangerous lie so many entrepreneur parents believe: “I’ll rest later.” Drawing from research-backed studies and real-life experience, this episode dives into how burnout creeps in, what it costs you, and how to recognize it before it takes something from you that you can’t get back. But this episode isn’t just about identifying the problem, it’s about solutions. Dan and Ildiko offer practical remedies you can apply immediately to start creating space, protecting your energy, and strengthening the bonds with the people who matter most. From routines and mindset shifts to scheduling and spiritual practices, you’ll walk away with tools to lead your business and your family with intention. Whether you’re in the middle of burnout or just feeling stretched too thin, this conversation is your wake-up call, and your invitation to reset. Burnout can be the price of greatness, and legacy is built not just on what you do, but who you become in the process. P.S.

  • Your Kids Don’t Need Perfect, They Need Present!
    Jun 25 2025
    EP 228 Your Kids Don’t Need Perfect, They Need Present! Entrepreneur Parents Pretty and Punk Podcast Hosted by Dan Caldwell & Ildiko Ferenczi On this episode of the Entrepreneur Parents Pretty and Punk Podcast, Ildiko Ferenczi and Dan Caldwell jump into a truth that every parent in the entrepreneurial grind needs to hear: your kids don’t need the perfect version of you, they just need you. In a world that glorifies hustle and celebrates success, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that providing more, achieving more, or working harder will somehow compensate for missed moments. But the reality is, your presence matters far more than your perfection. Dan and Ildiko open up about the guilt so many entrepreneur parents carry, the guilt of not being enough, not doing enough, or missing too much. They share raw, real insights into how showing up intentionally, even in small ways, creates the kind of connection and legacy that no amount of money or milestone ever could. Being present doesn’t mean being perfect, it means being available, being aware, and being in the moment, even when life is messy. If you’ve ever felt torn between your mission and your motherhood, your business and your fatherhood, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that what your kids will remember isn’t how busy you were it’s how seen they felt. This is your permission to stop chasing perfection and start choosing presence. Because the legacy you’re building isn’t just in what you accomplish… it’s in the moments you choose to show up for.

As entrepreneur parents, it’s easy to blame our past, our circumstances, or even our upbringing for where we are now. But Dan and Ildiko challenge listeners to recognize that you can either keep blaming the past or start building the future but you can’t do both. They dive into how the habit of making excuses can affect not just your business performance, but also your marriage, your parenting, and the values you’re passing on to your children. Backed by real research and relatable life experience, this episode explores the powerful shift that happens when we stop giving our excuses permission to lead. Whether you’re trying to scale a business, become a better parent, or build a stronger relationship, this conversation is a wake-up call to take full ownership of your life and legacy. It’s a raw, honest, and empowering episode that will help you trade the victim mindset for a builder’s mindset, and take one bold step toward becoming the example your kids deserve. P.S.

  • EP 225 Busy Doesn’t Mean Better!
    Jun 2 2025
    EP 225 Busy Doesn’t Mean Better ENTREPRENEUR PARENTS; Pretty and Punk Podcast Hosted by Dan Caldwell and Ildiko Ferenczi In this episode of The Entrepreneur Parents: Pretty and Punk Podcast, Dan Caldwell and Ildiko Ferenczi challenge one of the most dangerous lies in modern entrepreneurship: that being busy means you’re winning. They peel back the layers of hustle culture to reveal how constant activity often hides a lack of clarity, alignment, and peace. If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down or pressured to always be doing more, this episode is a wake-up call to redefine what real success looks like, especially as a parent, a spouse, and a leader. Dan and Ildiko dive into how chronic busyness can become a distraction from your true purpose and a barrier to deep connection with the people who matter most. From missed family dinners to emotional burnout, they explore the hidden cost of always being “on” and how it impacts your marriage, your kids, and your health. Drawing from both personal stories and powerful research, they make the case that productivity without presence isn’t success, it’s survival on autopilot. This episode will inspire you to rethink your schedule, guard your time, and model a more balanced life for your children. Because in the end, your kids won’t remember how many emails you sent or how many deals you closed. They’ll remember how present you were. And your legacy starts with the life you’re building right now. P.S. Please when you leave a review please leave your @ handle so we can get you a surprise! Amazing Marriage Cheat Sheet!

Dan shares a behind-the-scenes story from the TapouT days that shows how even casual conversations can reveal the deeper narrative we carry about our identity and potential. This episode will challenge you to recognize the lies you’ve accepted—and start rewriting your internal script so your reality can finally align with the life you were meant to lead. P.S.
