#105: How To Fund Your Own Maternity Leave With Kylie Kelly

April 14, 2022

Welcome back to the New Mom Boss Podcast! 

Working women have many hard decisions to make during pregnancy in order to prepare for their postpartum period.

For many, it’s especially difficult because it means yet another layer of planning that has to happen before the baby comes, which makes everything even more overwhelming.

Where do women even start when planning for maternity leave?

To help tackle this topic, I’ve brought on Kylie Kelly, an Australian mama of two, maternity leave coach, and podcast host of This Mama Means Business. 

She helps pregnant entrepreneurs plan and fund their own maternity leave through The Pregnant CEO, empowering them to not only take leave with their new baby but to return to a business that is thriving and profitable.

In our conversation, we discuss the importance of preparing for maternity leave, how to start that process, questions to reflect on, and advice on how to keep the business up and running while absent.

 Some big takeaways are:

1. Moms deserve to enter their maternity leave without feeling any pressure.
2. Plan for more time than you think.
3. Be open to feeling differently about your business throughout this transformative season.

Even if you’re not in business for yourself, I know this episode is valuable for any expecting mama trying her best to plan ahead. Give it a listen!

But before you go, wouldn’t it be amazing to have one-on-one support for yourself during your pregnancy?! 

If this is something that sounds helpful to you, consider signing up for a New Mom Assessment!

This is a 1-hour call where you and I work together to take a closer look at where you’re at with baby planning, assess your S5 Pillars, create an action plan for you moving forward, and even do a baby registry audit. I’d love to walk through this information with you and be a part of your support team!
