10 reasons why starting a business as a new mom is a great idea

Sure, there are the obvious reasons “why not” but here are a couple reasons why you should start a business soon after having your first baby:

  1. Everything in your life is suddenly ultra focused
  2. You get more done while your baby is sleeping than you ever dreamed possible 
  3. You have the best possible reason to step AWAY from your work (and no one to tell you you can’t)
  4. Scientific studies show a new mothers brain size is actually increased!!! 
  5. Your life is suddenly about play and creativity – which can drive innovation for your business 
  1. You have built-in perspective – and will be highly unlikely to sweat the small stuff
  2. An entrepreneur mom (or dad) makes a great role model for a child… leading them to see opportunities, take risks and create something from nothing 
  3. If you choose a business that makes you come alive then you’ll be feeding your energy so you can be more present when you are with your little one
  4. Your business is a great reason to reach out intentionally to other adults
  5. More flexibility!!!
