Doing Hard Things + Tracking the Truth: Numbers Don’t Lie with Kari Poppleton

What do you do when your body won’t cooperate, but your purpose still won’t quit?
In this episode of the Made for More Momcast, Shannon sits down with Kari Poppleton, an inspiring entrepreneur who’s built a meaningful online business while working from bed most days. Kari shares how the internet gave her the freedom to keep using her gifts, support her family, and help other business owners become more confident, capable CEOs, even in seasons where life feels uncertain.
Together, we talk about what it really looks like to do hard things when you don’t know what’s coming next… and why tracking your numbers matters more than your feelings on the hard days. Because momentum is built on truth and numbers don’t lie.
You’ll walk away encouraged, grounded, and reminded that even when life is heavy, there’s still something you can do—and it can change everything.
In this episode, we cover:
Building a business in a hard season (and why it still counts)
How online business can create real freedom for families
Why your mindset matters but your metrics matter too
“Numbers don’t lie”: what to track when you feel stuck or discouraged
Being an example to your kids that hard things can still be done
If you’ve been feeling limited, overwhelmed, or unsure what’s next, this conversation will give you hope, practical clarity, and the nudge to keep going… with truth you can measure.
