Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo aren’t wasting any time growing their family, revealing in September that they were expecting their second child less than a year after welcoming their first, daughter Dusty Rose. Now, in an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Levine is dishing on when the new bundle will be here — and whether it’ll be a little brother or sister for Dusty.
“It is a girl; we are having another girl,” the Maroon 5 frontman told the host. When DeGeneres asked how she was feeling, Levine was not shy with the glowing praise for his wife.
“She’s awesome. She’s just like a champion of the world,” Levine said. “She’s killing it. You wouldn’t know she’s almost seven months pregnant.”

Though Prinsloo isn’t due for another two months, DeGeneres couldn’t help but ask if the pair is going to have even more children.
“Probably. I want a lot,” Levine said. “I thrive with chaos. I really, generally enjoy and love it.” He added that his wife was on the same page, and as an only child “wants like 100 babies” to keep each other company. Levine then admitted that Prinsloo’s baby-ful dreams might be a tad too many for him.
DeGeneres describes 13-month-old Dusty — who the host famously named — as “a little zen baby,” which Levine admits he finds confusing. “Because her parents — we’re, like, maniacs. She kind of calms us down,” he said. “She looks at you like, ‘Okay. Relax.’ It’s good. It’s important.” By the sounds of it, having those 100 kids might not be so bad after all!

It can be intimidating to step out on your own and build a business from the ground up. As part of our collaboration with Office Depot, we're talking with Selfmade alum and solopreneur Colette Lawrence, the faith-based motivator and relationship builder behind The M.E.E. Movement, about ways in which women in business can find success.
B + C: How did you know M.E.E. Movement was your business to start?
The M.E.E Movement represents motivation, empowerment, and encouragement for women. It is what represents me. I did not know at first that it was my business to start, but then the thought of monetizing what I loved came to me. It scared me, however. I registered the business in July 2020 and have been slowly building my wings since.
B + C: What's one strategy that's helped you start your business?
Thinking through and researching what the requirements are to start my business, and then asking questions of people who are in the business. Not all advice worked; however, it helped me to figure out what I needed to do and not to do.
B + C: Did you always know life coaching would be your entrepreneurial path?
(Smiles) No, I did not. I 'stumbled" on it. I knew that people were always coming to me for advice and I found that I loved having conversations with them, especially with women, young and old.
B + C: What was your most valuable takeaway from Selfmade?
My most valuable takeaway was the first day of training: Get out of your own way. There were a lot of great moments and important takeaways from every presenter. However, getting out of my own way, pushing past doubts, was for me my most valuable takeaway. Doing something that I had never done before took courage. If I do not focus on what is happening with me mentally then I cannot deliver to my clients successfully.
B + C: What's one piece of advice you would give to female entrepreneurs on the brink of starting?
Get out of your head. You have something to offer. You have what you need to succeed so go ahead and do it.
B + C: How do you stay motivated?
I stay motivated by listening to music and listening to motivational speakers, and sometimes someone will just reach out and talk about the impact that I made in their life. That adds the extra juice or sauce I need to pummel through the day.
B + C: What's your best organizational tip?
Keep a diary and journal. It's the best way for me to keep organized and it also provides a source motivation as I record not only my "losses" but my wins as well.
B + C: Who inspires you in the entrepreneurial space?
Shirley Toliver – She motivates and empowers and makes me always want to show up.
B + C: What has receiving the Office Depot scholarship to Selfmade done to help you start or grow your business?
The scholarship was a blessing in that all the areas that were covered offered valuable information that I needed, from social media to HR. As a new business owner, I needed to know this to increase my own personal awareness in what it takes to run a successful business. The candidness of the presenters made it easy to see myself in their shoes and helped me to realize that I can also get there.
