In this episode of This Mother Means Business, Laura sits down with NYC marketer and Agency 6B founder Vix Reitano to talk building a people-first business, why “business funds families,” and how moms’ intuition translates into bold strategy. We get practical on GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), natural-language content, showing up in ChatGPT/Gemini searches, and the human touches that still move the needle. If you’re a founder juggling motherhood, marketing, and momentum, this one’s your playbook.
