The Business of Motherhood
By April Clarke, owner of Xpress Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, Inc.
Successful female entrepreneurs who are also moms face an initial struggle when their businesses are transforming from simple ideas to profit-generating new ventures. While you are tackling the everyday desirable obligation of motherhood duties, you are also forced to deal with the engrossing tasks of nurturing yet another being, an entity that is as demanding in its infancy as a newborn. Whether we have spouses and partners, or are going at it as single ladies, completing our daily to-do lists while maintaining a modicum of sanity is challenging most days. On others, it’s nearly impossible. And on those days it can be hard not feeling like you have failed at meeting the needs of one or both of your babies.
