In this episode of the MaYapinion® podcast, Maya Roffler sits down with Jackie Jansky, founder of Finder Binder, to tackle one of the most common challenges product-based founders face in the early stages of business: turning a product that works into consistent, predictable sales.

Jackie shares the powerful story behind Finder Binder, a mealtime tool she created after her premature twins struggled with feeding issues, sensory challenges, and food aversions following a long NICU stay. After working with nutritionists, therapists, and medical professionals, Jackie combined the strategies that worked into a simple system that helped her kids build balanced meals while giving them a sense of choice and control at the dinner table.

This episode is a true MaYapinion® conversation. Maya doesn't just listen; she gives her honest, strategic take on why Jackie's product resonates so strongly in person but struggles to gain traction online, and what founders often misunderstand about visibility, social media, and customer connection in the early stages of launching a product.

Together, they walk through the founder mindset, how to position a product around the problem it solves, and the difference between selling a product and offering a solution. Maya also shares specific strategies Jackie can use to build organic traction through community, social platforms, and connecting directly with the moms who need this product most.

This episode is especially powerful for product-based founders, mompreneurs, and early-stage entrepreneurs who know their product works but are struggling to move from occasional sales to consistent momentum.

In this episode of the MaYapinion® podcast, Maya Roffler sits down with Jen Uschold, founder of Jen Uschold LLC, to tackle a challenge so many experienced experts face when they expand, getting your message out clearly enough that the right people actually raise their hand.

Jen shares her powerful 35-year journey in physical therapy, how one unresolved client case sparked her curiosity about the link between stress and pain, and how pain science and health coaching completely transformed the way she helps people. What started as treating physical pain evolved into something much deeper: supporting clients through chronic pain, nervous system sensitivity, and even major life transitions.

This episode is a true MaYapinion® conversation. Maya doesn't just ask questions, she gives her honest, strategic take on what's missing in Jen's current marketing approach, why consistency alone isn't the whole answer, and how Jen can build a stronger pipeline for both coaching and speaking without burning out or getting lost in "trying everything."

This episode is especially powerful for coaches, practitioners, and experts with deep experience who know their work changes lives, but need a clearer path to visibility, client attraction, and consistent momentum.

In this episode of the MaYapinion® podcast, Maya Roffler sits down with Kelly Yabsley, founder of Messy Baby Co., to talk about the reality of bringing a physical product to market and what happens when you've built something that works but people still don't know about it.

Kelly shares the story behind Messy Baby Co., a product born out of motherhood frustration and innovation after experiencing constant baby blowouts with her daughter. What started as cutting up onesies and experimenting with panty liners became a patented product designed to solve a very real parenting problem.

But creating the product was only the beginning.

This episode dives into the challenge many founders face after launch: getting the right people to actually see, understand, and buy what you've created.

This is a true MaYapinion® conversation. Maya doesn't just listen she gives her honest, strategic take on brand awareness, organic marketing, audience connection, and why founders often struggle with sales even when their product clearly solves a problem.

Together, they unpack the difference between marketing activity and marketing effectiveness, how to connect emotionally with your audience, and why community-building is often more powerful than paid ads in the early stages of growth.

This episode is especially valuable for physical product founders, mompreneurs, and early-stage entrepreneurs who feel stuck between having a great product and figuring out how to consistently reach customers.

Building a product is one challenge. Building awareness and trust around that product is another entirely.
