I feel that when you put things out there, it kind of helps people sometimes.” When Samantha Busch said this in an interview with Jeff Gluck, she had already garnered a monumental following on social media. Ever since her wedding to Cup Series champion Kyle Busch, Samantha has been a permanent fixture on the racetracks, inspiring her fans with the ease with which she manages the schedule of Kyle and his son Brexton, along with her business ventures and charitable organizations.

But with the addition of her daughter Lennix in 2022, the influential social media figure felt she had an even greater responsibility to showcase the challenges of parenthood, along with the unimaginable joy. She rightly pointed out to Gluck, “You sort of have to be authentic or else people can see right through it.” Due to the unrealistic societal pressure of having it all together, even with little kids in your life, Samantha Busch chose to change the narrative, one chaotic social media post at a time.

“My whole thing was to make women feel good about themselves and to raise them up.” She wanted her followers to know that it was possible to be a devoted family member and still follow their personal and professional dreams. And if, in the meantime, you had a few off days or resorted to shortcuts, that could make your life easier, it didn’t mean you had fallen behind in your role. Every parent must have eaten in a rush on their way out or changed diapers in a public place in a hurry, and yet it is often looked down upon as a parental failure.

But along with sharing her painful IVF journey, Samantha Busch also decided to showcase the ordinary, everyday hardships of a working wife and mother to instill the belief in her followers that they weren’t alone in it. Her latest Instagram post was the most recent example of her relatable parental struggles, such as smelling diapers and taking as little time as possible in the bathroom, all with her inherent humor and charisma.
