Maternity Leave for Freelancers & Business Owners

​If you are pregnant or planning to expand your family and you own a business, what does maternity leave look like?

​As someone who has had both of her kids in the span of the 5 years I've been running my business, I've successfully had two maternity leaves. Each was slightly different and presented their own challenges.

​I'll share how I prepared for each leave, tips for saving money, how I kept the day-to-day business running as a solopreneur, and do a short round-robin to share how others are approaching maternity leave.
