  About two or three months after my first son was born, I looked at my husband and said: "I literally cannot do my business and motherhood at the same time." I meant it. I was overwhelmed, so in love with this tiny human, and I genuinely just wanted to be a mom. I did not want to think about my business at all. That was almost five years ago. Since then, I've had three kids in four and a half years, never had full-time childcare, and I'm still running the same business I started a decade ago....

These are the things that don't always get talked about in the online business world but absolutely should be.
