Being a mother is hard work. Rewarding work, but definitely hard.
This Mother’s Day, we wanted to celebrate the work that mothers do, inside and outside of the home.
Given this year’s International Women’s Day theme was “Choose to Challenge”, we decided to focus on working mums, particularly business owners, or women who run businesses from home.
For many working mums, the constant juggle between balancing the needs of the family and the demands of business is a challenge.
Our feature mums (scroll through to see their photos) shared their tips for keeping that balance right, and how to handle the stress of trying to do it all.
Thank you Misha, Brooke, Lauren, Lee, Kristie, Claire S, Lawri, Claire U, Liz, Tania and Sam for making time in your busy lives to share your stories with us.
And to all our mums – thank you for all the work you do. We hope you get to put your feet up and enjoy Mother’s Day with the ones you love.
