How To Build a Multi-Business Empire with Paulina Bachleda-Kubanska
Birthday girl energy was absolutely in the building for this one. This week on The Mami Collective, your host Paulina sits down with her name twin — the iconic, magenta-haired Paulina Bachleda-Kubanska — and honestly, the universe knew what it was doing when it brought these two together.Paulina B. came to the United States from Poland at 16 with zero English and zero roadmap — and turned that into a full-on empire. We're talking a tax preparation company, a real estate license, a mortgage loan officer license, and a cleaning business she literally purchased twice. Oh, and she does it all as a mama to her three-year-old daughter.In this episode, we get into:Why saying YES to everything almost broke her — and the 7 years it took to learn that lessonHow she built unshakeable client trust by not being motivated by moneyThe one-stop-shop business model and why expanding your services is a power moveOutsourcing, systems, and building a team so you don't lose your mind (or your marriage)Raising an only child who doesn't throw tantrums in the toy aisle — and yes, she's taking studentsHer dad's advice that changed everything: "What if it does work out?"This episode is for every woman who's been told to play it safe, every immigrant woman who figured it out anyway, and every entrepreneur wondering if they can really do it all. Spoiler: you can't do it alone — but you can do it.No balance. No BS. Just real talk.🔗 Follow Paulina B:Taxes: Maram Company (Lyons/Berwyn area)Cleaning: Deluxe Maids of Illinois
