Show Notes

This week I'm sharing my mat leave as a business owner experience with you.

When I was pregnant for the first time, I looked around for positive narratives about maternity leave that weren't horror stories. Maybe I was looking in the wrong places, but I couldn't find anything at the time that told me I was going to be OK!

With my second pregnancy I was in a very different situation - self employed, with some foresight of the intensity and changes I was about to go through (although believe me, it was not what I had expected!)

I'm giving you a breakdown of how I prepared my business, what went to plan and what didn't, what I learnt in the hope that it will give you something to cross reference if you're looking at mat leave as a business owner or self employed. Yes it can be tough, but it can be done!

And I share a little perk that I didn't realise was coming from HMRC, listen out!
