The Unique Struggles of a Mom Boss | “Love ‘n Business” Podcast

What happens when you’re a strong and ambitious leader of a thriving business – and now, at 37, a new mother?  Britt Arnold dives into the triumph and tribulations of a Mom Boss with her husband, fellow entrepreneur, Mike Arnold, in this episode of “Love ‘n Business”.

Discover how this driven businesswoman is learning to prioritize her life intentionally. Highlights include:

• Mom Boss versus mompreneur.
• The essential advantage of having an experienced au pair during the workday to allow them to copy with business demands.
• Britt feels that there’s great value in a child seeing their parents working hard, but it’s emotionally difficult to hand off her child to another – and there’s guilt.
• When with her child, Britt strives to be very present and to engage, teach and stimulate her child.
• Witnessing his older daughters, Mick’s proud to see the strong work ethic has been passed along.
• As a brand-new mom in her late thirties, Britt was surprised to begin questioning her decision to leave the baby with others – and essentially, her very identity.
• The importance of time management, prioritization and resilience in balancing a career and family life.  Not much downtown these days for the Arnolds… focuses are business, health and wellness, family and friends.
• Britt’s discovering feminine energy. She finding that having a child adds inspiration and motivation, as well as empathy. She’s relating to others more deeply.
• Support and appreciation for women seems to be on the rise in the US (childcare at the Olympics, etc.).
• Ruth Ginsburg’s story of gender disparity – man’s employment viewed as more important.
