Welcome to another edition of our Member Spotlight Series on the Madison Mompreneur blog! This series will help you get to know the members of Madison Mompreneur as we ask them questions about their personal and professional life as moms who own businesses in the Madison, Alabama area.

We are continuing this series with the spotlight on Kelbey McGhee, Owner of Hatched Design Co.!

Tell us about yourself!
I’m Kelbey McGhee, and I’m the owner of Hatched Design Co.

How does your business help people?
As a brand and website designer, I help overwhelmed entrepreneurs find their confidence with relationship-focused branding and conversion-driven Showit websites.

How long have you lived in Madison?
I’ve lived in the area my whole life! 

What inspired you to start your business?
While I was working in the marketing department for a tech company in Nashville, TN, the whole branch I had worked with was laid off. So, yes, one day I had a 9–5, the next…I had zero income and a whole lotta questions. And while being jobless isn’t exactly what I’d recommend for a good time, that layoff gave me the push I didn’t know I needed. I decided to give freelancing a go. One project led to another, and suddenly I had a real business forming in front of me. Not bad for a fresh-outta-corporate girl with a laptop and a Pinterest mood board! As I worked with more clients, I realized who I loved working with the most were women starting their own businesses from scratch. The ones who were ready to ditch the 9–5 grind in exchange for freedom and flexibility — but had no idea where to start when it came to branding. I saw myself in them. I was them. So, I made it official. Hatched Design Co was born. And it’s been my full-time gig ever since — helping women in business look and feel like the CEOs they are.

What sets your business apart from others in the industry?
I don’t just design pretty things—I build brands that actually work. While most designers focus on making things look good, I’m obsessed with making sure your brand attracts the right people and drives real results. I combine a decade of strategic marketing knowledge with intentional design to create brands that don’t just sit pretty on the internet—they work overtime to grow your business. Here’s what really sets me apart: I’ve been where the startups are. I know what it feels like to stare at your laptop at 2 AM wondering if you’re crazy for starting a business. That’s why my process feels less like working with a corporate agency and more like having a strategic best friend who happens to know a lot about branding! I specialize in helping entrepreneurs skip the messy middle—that overwhelming phase where you know you need a brand but have no idea where to start. Instead of leaving you to figure it out alone, I guide you through a proven process that turns your vision into a cohesive brand experience that connects with your ideal clients from day one. The bottom line? Other designers give you a logo and website. I give you the confidence and clarity to build something your whole community can’t stop talking about.

What do you consider to be your biggest success so far?
My biggest success isn’t something I built—it’s watching a client go from hiding behind ‘coming soon’ pages for months to launching confidently and booking her first $10K month within 60 days. That moment when she texted me ‘I can’t believe this is actually working!’ That’s what I’m here for.

How does your business contribute to the local community?
I’m passionate about helping local entrepreneurs in the greater Alabama area build businesses they’re proud of. When I help a local baker create a brand that attracts more customers, or design a website for a local service provider that actually converts, I’m directly contributing to our local economy and helping small businesses thrive right here at home.

How do you see your business evolving in the next 5-10 years?
It’s 10 years down the road, and Hatched is totally killing it in the small business world. I want to be the go-to crew for entrepreneurs looking to level up their game in the area. We’re keeping things boutique. We’re not trying to be the next big corporate giant. We’re all about that quality over quantity life. We’re staying true to our roots, keeping things personal, and delivering awesomeness on a silver platter.

Who are your typical customers and how do they find you?
My ideal clients? They’re the go-getters, the dreamers, the “I’m gonna make this happen” types. We’re talking about: First-time entrepreneurs ready to make their mark, small business owners who know it’s time for a digital glow-up, corporate escapees starting their own gig, and creative souls who need help turning their ideas into a real-deal brand. These folks know that good design isn’t just pretty – it’s powerful. They’re ready to invest in their business’s future, but they’d rather leave the design magic to someone who lives and breathes this stuff (aka, yours truly). They’ll find me during local networking events, through the mouth’s of successful clients, and Instagram for national reach.

What do you enjoy most about running your business?
I’m obsessed with the puzzle of it all. Taking someone’s big, messy vision and figuring out how to turn it into a cohesive brand that actually works. Every project is like a creative challenge where I get to dig into their story, understand their people, and then design something that bridges that gap perfectly.

How do you stay up-to-date with industry trends and changes?
I follow a mix of design blogs, marketing podcasts, other designers and industry leaders on social media, but I’m selective about it. I focus on sources that share both the ‘what’ and the ‘why’ behind trends—because understanding the strategy behind a design choice is way more valuable than just copying what looks cool. Plus, my clients often share what they’re seeing in their own fields.

What advice would you give to someone interested in starting a business in your industry?
Start before you’re “ready”. Don’t wait until you feel ‘qualified enough’ or have the perfect portfolio—I started with a laptop and way too much coffee! The best way to learn is by doing actual client work. Start with friends, family, or small local businesses who need help. Your skills will grow with every project, and real client work teaches you things no course ever could.

What product/service would you like for us to highlight at this time?
All-in-One Brand and Website Design: A simple, no-fuss design experience that turns your brand and website into a polished, conversion-driven home for your brand.

Do you involve your kid(s) in your business? If yes, how so?
Somewhat! My son is 3.5 and he likes to watch what I do on the computer every so often. But he likes to “type my emails” more!

What do you find is the most difficult part of balancing motherhood and business life?
The hardest part is the constant mental switching between ‘mom mode’ and ‘business owner mode.’ One minute I’m designing a brand strategy, the next I’m dealing with a toddler meltdown because his daddy gave him milk in a red cup instead of a blue cup, then immediately switching back to take a client call. It’s not just the time management—it’s the emotional and mental energy it takes to be fully present for both sides.

Welcome to another edition of our Member Spotlight Series on the Madison Mompreneur blog! This series will help you get to know the members of Madison Mompreneur as we ask them questions about their personal and professional life as moms who own businesses in the Madison, Alabama area.

We are continuing this series with the spotlight on Lindsey Barron, Owner of Rocket City Mom!

Tell us about yourself and your business! I’m Lindsey Barron, and I’m the owner of Rocket City Mom.

How does your business help people? Rocket City Mom helps North Alabama families thrive. Through our website, www.rocketcitymom.com, we provide free, reliable, and hyperlocal parenting resources to support families at every stage. From our comprehensive event calendar and seasonal guides to education tools, local business spotlights, and community stories, we connect parents and caregivers with the information they need to make informed decisions. Whether it’s finding a fun weekend activity, choosing the right school, or navigating parenting challenges, Rocket City Mom empowers families with access, support, and connection in their local community.

How long have you lived in the Madison area? I have lived in Madison County for 40 years. 

What inspired you to start your business? As a long-time advocate for families and children in North Alabama, I saw Rocket City Mom as more than just a website, it was a trusted lifeline for parents in our community. I was inspired to purchase Rocket City Mom because I deeply believe in the power of connection, information, and local support. As a mom of a large, blended family and someone who has spent decades working with nonprofits, I understand firsthand how valuable it is to have access to reliable resources during every stage of parenthood. I wanted to ensure Rocket City Mom not only continued serving families but also expanded its reach, grew its impact, and remained a voice for those navigating both the joys and challenges of raising children in our region.

What sets your business apart from others in the industry? What sets Rocket City Mom apart is our deep-rooted connection to the community we serve. Unlike national parenting websites, we are hyperlocal and personally invested in North Alabama families. Our content is created by local parents, for local parents, which means we understand their unique needs, challenges, and opportunities. We don’t just share information; we build relationships, amplify underrepresented voices, and advocate for resources that make a real difference. With over a decade of trust, a robust online presence, and genuine partnerships with schools, nonprofits, and small businesses, Rocket City Mom is more than a resource, we’re a reliable companion in the parenting journey.

What do you consider to be your biggest success so far? Our biggest success has been building and sustaining a trusted, free resource that truly makes a difference in the lives of North Alabama families. Since taking ownership, we’ve expanded our reach, deepened community partnerships, and kept local parenting content accessible to all, regardless of income or background. One of our proudest achievements is being recognized with the Huntsville/Madison County Chamber of Commerce Community Impact Award, which affirmed that our mission to connect, support, and uplift families is not only working, but valued. Seeing the direct impact of our work, whether it’s a parent finding the perfect school, a local event reaching new audiences, or a small business thriving through our promotion, reminds us daily that our success is shared with the community we serve.

How does your business contribute to the local community? Rocket City Mom contributes to the local community by serving as a bridge between families and the resources they need to thrive. We spotlight local events, schools, nonprofits, and small businesses, giving them a platform to reach parents and caregivers across North Alabama. Our free event calendar, seasonal guides, and educational content make it easier for families to stay connected, informed, and engaged. Beyond digital resources, we also host and support in-person events that bring the community together, from learning conferences to family festivals. By amplifying local voices, advocating for children and families, and partnering with mission-driven organizations, Rocket City Mom plays an active role in strengthening the fabric of our region.

How do you see your business evolving in the next 5-10 years? In the next 5-10 years, I see Rocket City Mom evolving into an even more dynamic hub for parenting support across North Alabama. We’ll continue to innovate digitally, with a more robust mobile experience, inclusive content, and deeper engagement through video, podcasts, and interactive tools. At the heart of it all, our mission will remain the same: to serve families with empathy, elevate local voices, and champion causes that improve the quality of life for children and parents. As communities grow and change, so will we, always grounded in local impact and authentic connection.

Who are your typical customers and how do they find you? Our typical audience includes parents, caregivers, and educators in North Alabama, especially those looking for trustworthy, local information to support their families. From new moms searching for pediatricians to seasoned parents navigating school choices, our readers span every stage of the parenting journey. Many find us through organic Google searches, social media, word-of-mouth referrals, and community partnerships. Our searchable event calendar, school and camp guides, and timely local features make us a go-to resource. We’re proud that once families discover Rocket City Mom, they tend to stay with us throughout their parenting years and often recommend us to others in their circle.

What do you enjoy most about running your business? What I enjoy most about running Rocket City Mom is knowing that the work we do truly matters to families in our community and getting to do that work alongside an amazing team. Every day, I’m inspired by the passion, creativity, and dedication of the people behind Rocket City Mom. We’re not just co-workers, we’re fellow parents, advocates, and community-builders who genuinely care about making life a little easier and more joyful for the families we serve. Collaborating with this incredible team to uplift local voices, support small businesses, and connect parents to valuable resources is both a privilege and a joy. It’s the people, both on our team and in our community, that make this work so rewarding.

How do you stay up-to-date with industry trends and changes? Staying current is essential in the fast-paced world of digital media and parenting resources. At Rocket City Mom, we stay up-to-date with industry trends by actively engaging with other leaders in local journalism, parenting networks, and digital publishing. We regularly attend professional conferences, and track analytics and reader feedback to guide content decisions. We also stay closely connected to our community, listening to what families need, what topics they’re talking about, and what resources they’re seeking. This combination of data, dialogue, and professional development helps us adapt quickly, stay relevant, and continue delivering content that truly serves our readers.

What advice would you give to someone interested in starting a business in your industry? My biggest piece of advice is to start with service, know who your audience is and how you can genuinely help them. In this industry, trust is everything. If you’re building a parenting resource or local media platform, be prepared to show up consistently, listen to your community, and deliver value without expecting instant returns. Build relationships with local organizations, small businesses, and families, you’ll grow stronger together. Also, don’t underestimate the importance of adaptability; digital trends, algorithms, and reader needs evolve quickly, so stay curious and willing to pivot. And finally, surround yourself with a passionate team. A mission-driven, supportive crew makes all the difference when you’re juggling deadlines, community expectations, and the demands of entrepreneurship.

What product/service would you like for us to highlight at this time? We’d love to highlight our free community Event Calendar, the most comprehensive family-friendly calendar in North Alabama. It’s the go-to resource for parents looking for things to do, from free festivals and library programs to camps, classes, and seasonal fun. Local businesses and organizations can also submit their events for free, making it a win-win for both families and community partners. Promoting this calendar helps families stay connected and engaged while supporting the organizations that make North Alabama a great place to raise kids.

Do you involve your kids in your business? If yes, how so? Yes, absolutely, I love involving my children in Rocket City Mom! They often help prepare for events, assist behind the scenes, and volunteer alongside me at community activities. It’s important to me that they see the value of hard work, service, and giving back. Being part of the Rocket City Mom journey has given them a front-row seat to what it means to support your community and be a voice for others. It’s become a family mission, and I’m proud that they’re learning how to make a positive impact while also sharing in the fun and connection that comes with this work.

What do you find is the most difficult part of balancing motherhood and business life? The most difficult part is feeling like there’s never enough of me to go around. As a mom and a business owner, I’m constantly juggling priorities, and it can be hard to give 100% to both at the same time. There are moments when work needs my full attention, and others when my family needs me more, and navigating that push and pull can be challenging. The guilt that comes with missing a school event or delaying a project deadline is real. But I’ve learned to give myself grace, set boundaries, and focus on being present wherever I am. I remind myself that I’m modeling resilience, passion, and purpose for my kids, and that’s something I’m proud of.

What business in the Madison Area is your favorite? That’s a tough question because we’re lucky to have so many amazing businesses in the Madison area! But one of my favorites is Kids to Love. They’re not only great at what they do, but they also care deeply about the community – finding forever families for children in our community. I love supporting local businesses that give back, create welcoming spaces for families, and bring something special to our area. Whether it’s grabbing a coffee, shopping small, or partnering on events, it’s those community-driven businesses that make Madison feel like home.

Do you have a business bestie? Yes, I absolutely have a business bestie, and I’m so thankful for her! Having someone who understands the ups and downs of entrepreneurship, celebrates the wins, and talks you through the tough moments is invaluable. We bounce ideas off each other, collaborate when we can, and remind each other to take breaks and keep our priorities in check. It’s not just about business it’s about having someone in your corner who gets it. Every entrepreneur needs that kind of support system, and I’m lucky to have found mine.

Anything else you would like for us to highlight? We’d love for you to highlight that Rocket City Mom is more than a website, it’s a mission-driven community resource. Everything we do is rooted in supporting families, lifting up local voices, and creating meaningful connections across North Alabama. We’re proud to offer free access to parenting content, inclusive family guides, and platforms for small businesses and nonprofits to thrive. Whether you’re a brand-new parent or a long-time local, Rocket City Mom is here to walk alongside you. And we’re always growing, so stay tuned for new events, partnerships, and regional expansions that continue to put families first.

Member Highlight: Christine Stroecker of Birch Acres

Welcome to another edition of our Member Spotlight Series on the Madison Mompreneur blog! This series will help you get to know the members of Madison Mompreneur as we ask them questions about their personal and professional life as moms who own businesses in the Madison, Alabama area.

We are continuing this series with the spotlight on Christine Stroecker, Owner of Birch Acres LLC!

Introduce yourself!

I’m Christine Stroecker, and I own Birch Acres LLC.

How does your business help people?

Birch Acres LLC is a fully licensed and insured residential remodeling company. It is my goal to breathe life back into the space of your home. I truly believe that homes hold energy, and that energy affects those living in the space. Making your home more functional, aesthetic, and comfortable, will have an impact on your daily life and how you feel each day. Our homes are usually our biggest material asset, so investing in them (in the correct ways) is very wise. Elevate your home, Elevate your life 🙂

How long have you lived in Madison County?

South Huntsville is my home base. My family has lived here for a little over two years. My husband and I are both from Alabama, but we moved from state to state during/after college. This is our first time living in Alabama as a family, so it feels great to be home!

What inspired you to start your business?

Starting my own business has been on my heart since I was in high school. Surprisingly, I got really comfortable in the corporate world after college and thought I’d never leave. There were multiple things going on in my life from 2020 – 2021 that seemed to push me to start my own business. First, my husband and I flipped two houses on the side while working full-time. This is really where I fell in love with residential construction AND saw a huge need in the market for a more sophisticated experience. Secondly, once I had my son in 2021, my vision of how I wanted the rest of my life to look and the vision being sold by the corporate world weren’t aligning. Having my son was the main catalyst to starting Birch Acres.

What sets your business apart from others in the industry?

Besides the fact that it’s run by a young female….

The residential remodeling industry is way behind with the times. The quotes given to homeowners are vague; the expectations are not set properly; the billing process is usually unorganized and not clear; it can be “sketchy” in regard to safety; people’s deposits are taken (I can’t tell you how many times I have heard clients say another contractor took their money).

I want to make a positive impact on the reputation that residential contractors carry. When you work with Birch Acres, you will have a fully modern experience. I want to make sure we have a trusting relationship with open communication. My billing process is very clear, organized, and you can make payments online. I have been told numerous times that my quotes are very detailed compared to others. We will discuss different issues that we might encounter. I am very diligent at tracking cost, and dependent on what type of contract you have, we will be in frequent communication on budget. Lastly, we understand that we are coming into your home, so we make sure that we are respectful of your space and your time. We’re basically doing surgery on your home (your most valuable asset), so I want to make sure that my clients understand what to expect.

What do you consider to be your biggest success so far?

Creating a business that gave me so much time back that I can now spend with my family.

How does your business contribute to the local community?

We donate extra materials that are unused to people that are in need. We will load up the unused materials and take them to where they need to go! We are also particularly careful to dispose of waste properly.

How do you see your business evolving in the next 5-10 years?

My goal is to create a construction company that provides an upscale remodeling experience that is communicative, sophisticative, and creative. I want to re-write what people typically think when they go to hire a contractor. Hopefully I am at 5x the revenue that I am projecting for this year, and I’ll certainly need a large team to help me accomplish that.

Equally as important, I want to create a company where the employees thrive in their roles. I want the work environment to promote creativity (not only with design but with processes too), encourage ownership with projects, empower them to take charge. My hope is that working at Birch Acres is a growing experience for the employee that pushes them out of their comfort zone. I want the employees to gain confidence in themselves and their future. Hopefully the employees absolutely love their job and that joy spills into their home. As an employer, time with family will always come first. Money will come and go, but time you can’t get back.

Who are your typical customers, and how do they find you?

I have two main types of customers: (1) Homeowners (2) Investors. They usually find me through a referral, Google, Houzz, or the BBB.

What do you enjoy most about running your business?

F-R-E-E-D-O-M. Can’t say it enough. I have so much freedom with my time. I have control over how much money I make. I have freedom to choose who is a good fit for me to work with. Once day when I am hiring, I’ll have the freedom to choose my employees. I have freedom to choose how my processes work and what deliverables look like. I absolutely love the amount of freedom owning a business gives me.

How do you stay up-to-date with industry trends and changes?

I am a student right now at the Interior Design Institute. I fully plan to elevate the design aspect of my business!

What advice would you give to someone interested in starting a business in your industry?

#1 you MUST get your Homebuilder’s License! Don’t be afraid of the test. My books are on loan right now to someone who is studying for the test, and I’d be happy to loan them to anyone. #2 don’t be afraid to network around town, build a website, cold call people, etc… this was so uncomfortable for me at first, but it has gotten me so many jobs.

Any product/service you would like to highlight at this time?

During the holidays, I notice a big dip in homeowner projects! It makes sense that people don’t want a renovation going while they are spending large amounts of time at home and inviting guests over. The holidays are stressful enough! That being said, INVESTORS are a HUGE source of revenue for my business. Investor connections really pull my business through the winter season since they are always on the gas!

Do you involve your kids in your business? If yes, how so?

My son involves himself by crawling into my office chair and banging on my keyboard… that’s about as involved as he gets.

What do you find is the most difficult part of balancing motherhood and business life?

When I left my corporate job, I was convinced that I wouldn’t have any more super late nights working. I strive to maintain that, but it happens every once in a while. I feel a strong pain in my heart when those moments happen. I use those moments to feel grateful that they are few and far between and that I am on the right track.

What business in the Madison area is your favorite?

Vintage 72 🙂

Who is your business bestie?

I have a few over the internet, but I need a real-life one!

Where can people find you?

On my website, Facebook, and Instagram.

Member Spotlight: Emily Willis of Womb Space Healing Center

Welcome to another edition of our Member Spotlight Series on the Madison Mompreneur blog! This series will help you get to know the members of Madison Mompreneur as we ask them questions about their personal and professional life as moms who own businesses in Madison, Alabama.

We are continuing this series with the spotlight on Emily Willis, Owner of Womb Space Healing Center. Enjoy!

Introduce yourself!

My name is Emily Willis, and I own Womb Space Healing Center.

How does your business help people?

Womb Space Healing Center is a holistic gynecology office offering safe and natural health solutions.

How long have you lived in Madison County?

I’ve lived in Meridianville since October 2009.

What inspired you to start your business?

The complete absence of holistic healthcare in this country and the bandaid approach that does not heal the root cause of physical problems.

What sets your business apart from others in the industry?

I look at your health holistically meaning complete health of the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. I also have evening and weekend hours which no other gynecology practice in the area does.

What do you consider to be your biggest success so far?

Opening women’s minds to the fact that they can heal themselves and giving them their power back.

How does your business contribute to the local community?

I am offering women knowledge to empower them about their healthcare. I give them the tools they need to do the work and heal themselves.

How do you see your business evolving in the next 5-10 years?

I plan to expand on the small holistic health center I have at my office now with 6 other holistic health professionals. We plan to have a large building that is one stop shopping for holistic health for all.

Who are your typical customers, and how do they find you?

My typical customer is a woman from 18-60, although I have seen ages 10-93. I can be found on Instagram, Facebook, and my website.

What do you enjoy most about running your business?

Freedom with my schedule and what I offer!

How do you stay up-to-date with industry trends and changes?

I am constantly taking courses to further my education out of a desire to find more ways to help people but also I have required CEUs to keep my national certification and state license.

What advice would you give to someone interested in starting a business in your industry?

The first year is really tough on all levels but the end result is so worth it so stick with it.

What product/service would you like for us to highlight at this time?

Holistic gynecology services and products that I sell in my lobby.

Do you involve your kids in your business? If yes, how so?

They visit sometimes when there is no school and momma has to work but are not otherwise involved as school and after school activities keep them and us busy.

What do you find is the most difficult part of balancing motherhood and business life?

Making sure I give my husband and kids my undivided attention when at home.

What business in the Madison area is your favorite?

Phuket Thai Restaurant and Sushi because Thai and sushi are my favorite!

Who is your business bestie?

I enjoy all my suite mates at work a ton and consider them my friends.

Anything else you would like for us to highlight?

I am a one woman show so everyone gets me only when they contact the office and all appointments are an hour long at least so no one is rushed. I am here to sincerely listen and help.

Where can people find you?

My website and my office at 3315 Memorial Parkway SW, Suite 501, Huntsville, AL 35801 which is between Drake and Airport.
