(Book)

Whether you are a new mother, just thinking about it or already trying to combine a career and children, working motherhood can sometimes seem like an impossible balancing act. That's why Tobi Asare, founder of My Bump Pay, doesn't talk about juggling or balancing, but instead about The Blend. In this book, Tobi shares her hard-won wisdom and advice on how to make working work for you, covering everything from the financial to the emotional aspects of working motherhood, and from preparing for maternity leave to returning with confidence. This is not just about making it work or staying sane, this is about how to thrive while successfully blending work and family life. This book will help you set yourself up for success before the baby comes along, during the pregnancy and beyond. With chapters focusing on navigating work while pregnant, freelancers, childcare, future babies and mum guilt, each section also has advice and career tips from successful women who are already making the best of the blend.
