Description
An inspirational and empowering celebration of more than sixty women who are both dedicated mothers and successful entrepreneurs.

Starting a business can be daunting, scary, and exciting, all at once; so too can starting a family. But they can coexist--as the incredible roster of women in this book demonstrate, entrepreneurship can be both a sustainable and fulfilling model for working motherhood. Each woman profiled here shares insights from her journey as well as powerful lessons and practical advice, including:

  • How to plan for maternity leave
  • The benefits of sharing financial information with your peers
  • Key points to include when drafting a contract
  • Creative ways to include your kids in your work
  • The value of building support systems, from advisory boards to nanny shares
  • Resources for securing grants and fellowships
  • Tips for preparing taxes as a freelancer
  • How to avoid the "mom guilt" trap

Filled with first-person stories of designers, makers, CEOs, farmers, pastry chefs, artists, lawyers, educators, and more, Mother / Founder captures with unprecedented candor the unique challenges and joys of what it means to launch and run a business while being just as fiercely dedicated to raising children.
