When I got pregnant it suddenly dawned on me: “Oh 💩, our world is not set up to support mama-entrepreneurs who’d also like to enjoy the luxury of maternity leave…”
Now that our baby is almost 9 months old, I enjoy that there isn’t a deadline to get back to the office.
And yet, I did feel that my ‘time away with the baby’ was interrupted way too early by my fear of loosing my business if I allow myself to take a proper break.
Yet, I’m here to celebrate Shanta Naimi (Career & Business Coach for Mamas returning to work; the Fully Booked Coach Alumni) who managed to hibernate with her precious baby Mila for 6 full months before returning to her coaching practice WITH A BANG! 💥
As job offers started to roll in – she had the confidence to turn them down, creating a stable income and transforming lives through her coaching work.
In this video Shanta shares what helped her make such an elegant comeback, deal with Mama’s guilt and find her rhythm with both work and family.
Take a look at the short interview clip below and the full interview is on YouTube (the link is in the comments).
What helped you (and your family) settle back into work after having a baby? 👶
