​
It Important To Us...
Because, we know that starting and running a business is hard, embarking on this journey is made even harder when you are a mum, especially if becoming self-employed is on the back of redundancy, during maternity leave, at a crossroads in your life or upon the realisation that returning to work post pregnancy is not a financially viable option. Many of the Mumpreneurs and Mumpreneurs To-Be that we have the pleasure of connecting with within our network, find themselves on the brink of transformational life change as a result of motherhood. Often reaching their Ta_Dah moment when realising starting their own business makes perfect sense. But quickly find themselves on the emotional rollercoaster that all self-employed people find themselves on, with little or no help, and no knowledge of where or how to access support.
Leading to;
Isolation
Overwhelm
Procrastination
Lack of confidence in oneself and abilities
Feeling like an imposter within their sector
In many cases seeing women returning to employment and giving up on their dream.
Sound familiar? You are not alone, we promise you that!
This is why the team behind The Mumpreneurs UK Network started this organisation, to provide a platform of support for mums in enterprise just like you.
