Michaela Phillips | CEO & Co-Founder, Pursuit Network
What do you do now, and what did you want to be as a kid?
I lead Pursuit Network, a media agency that helps creators build sustainable brands through podcasts, partnerships, and original IP. As a kid, I didn’t have a specific dream job, but I was always curious, creative, and drawn to building things. In many ways, I became the person I needed back then—someone who could see the vision before it was fully formed.
What’s a typical day like?
I’m up around 6:30 for a 7am sculpt class, then school drop-off for my daughter. My Power Hour comes first—deep work before meetings and calls take over. My day is a mix of strategy, talent development, client work, and managing a team. I try to wind down in the evening with my daughter and do one final pass once the house is quiet.
How do you balance motherhood and work?
I don’t aim for perfect balance—I aim for harmony. Some seasons, work needs more of me; in others, I’m more present at home. I’ve learned to ask for help, trust my team, and focus on alignment over productivity. Motherhood has sharpened my instincts and made me a more grounded leader.
What’s one piece of advice you’d normally gatekeep but won’t?
You don’t need permission—just clarity, consistency, and belief. Find expanders—people who show you what’s possible. Study their blueprint, then walk through your own door… even if you don’t know what’s on the other side yet.
Thank you so much, Michaela! Make sure to follow her here and Pursuit Network as well.
