What better way to wrap out our Wicked Good Entrepreneur series than by hearing the backstory of Boston Moms from its owner, Meghan Block? On today’s episode we are chatting, just the two of us, about the beginnings of Boston Moms, how the brand has grown, and what the future looks like. This is a fun conversation between two friends who came together because of the brand they are both so passionate about. Thanks for listening to The Story of Boston Moms!
About Our Hosts
SHANNON GIBSON started following Boston Moms on social media before she even lived in the Boston area! She credits her passion for the brand to the way it served her personally before she ever contributed to it. Shannon started as a writer for our team, and currently serves as our Director of Creative Operations. She is also a Licensed Social Worker with a big heart for mental health and wellness. Though Shannon moved to Boston to support her husband’s career, Boston Moms was the unexpected gift and opportunity she had no idea was waiting for her. Shannon is mom to Elizabeth (2016) and Anderson (2018). She has been married to her husband, Benjamin, since 2012. Benjamin is a filmmaker and owner of Boston production company Magnus Films. In her free time, Shannon enjoys going to the beach, browsing antique stores, hiking with her family, traveling, reading, and watching movies with her husband.
MEGHAN BLOCK was born and raised in Plymouth, attended college in Boston, and followed her husband around the country while he served as a Submarine Officer in the United States Navy for a period of time. When they decided to put down roots in 2016, the couple knew they needed to move *home* to Boston. Six years later, it’s still the best decision they’ve ever made.
Meghan currently lives on the South Shore with her husband, Rob and their 3 children, born in 2013, 2015 and 2019. She works full-time from home, and spends her days balancing motherhood and her career. Meghan is truly passionate about connecting Boston-area moms to each other, to important and relevant resources, and to local businesses. In her free time, you can find her trying a new recipe, working on their fixer upper, planning a party, or supporting her favorite local businesses.
