S1E46: Create the Life You Love - with Brenda Noon Schmidt

Send us a text

In today’s episode, I’m joined by my quotes online bestie, Brenda Noon Schmidt, for an inspirational and fun conversation you won’t want to miss. Brenda and I connected virtually through a past guest, Emily Jacobs, and although we’ve never met in person, we’ve built a genuine online friendship.

Brenda is a busy wife and mom of three, but her journey to this season of life is filled with intentional pivots and powerful perspective shifts. She shares how, after growing up caring for her younger siblings, she once believed motherhood wasn’t for her. But as she grew and met her husband, she realized she could define family life on her own terms—and that her past didn’t have to shape her future.

Throughout our conversation, Brenda opens up about shifting career paths—from art and graphic design to finance and investing, and eventually to entrepreneurship. No matter the chapter, she’s always embraced the lessons learned along the way and used them to build a life aligned with her values.

Brenda’s story is a beautiful reminder that we each have the power to design a life we love by following joy, being intentional, and never stopping our personal growth journey. She and her husband continue to dream big, learn together, and share meaningful adventures with their kids.

You’ll leave this episode inspired and encouraged—and you’ll definitely want to take notes on the wisdom Brenda so generously shares.

Brenda shared a favorite author - Benjamin Hardy and highlighted a couple of books, but especially wanted to share about The Gap and the Gain if you'd like to check it out. Also, please feel free to follow Brenda on social media @kickassmodernmom.
