The Pumping Entrepreneur

One Womens Guide to Balancing Business and Baby Skills

by Laura Heynike

Motherhood is bloody hard. But it’s even harder when you’ve also got your first baby – your business – to take care of.

The Pumping Entrepreneur is an honest, raw look into how one entrepreneur navigated becoming a mum, dealing with ‘pregism’, and running a business through some of the hardest times our world has ever experienced.

Having looked around for other women who were successfully juggling the early years of parenting with running a business (and struggling to find any), Laura Heynike wanted to create a book that would smooth the way for entrepreneurs following in her footsteps.

Packed with tips and learnings for how to balance both your babies (human and business!), The Pumping Entrepreneur includes:
  • Laura’s own story – from becoming pregnant at one of the toughest times she’d faced in business to returning to work post-baby;
  • An exploration of ‘pregism’ and ‘motherism’ that looks honestly at how others view female business owners starting families;
  • Hard-earned tips for being kind to yourself, finding the balance, and making sure both your business and baby have what they need;
  • A guide to create your own ‘Maternity Proposal’ to prepare your business for you to take a break; and
  • The comfort that while the world might not get it yet, we do.
Whether you’re considering starting a family, pregnant now, or some years down the track, The Pumping Entrepreneur will show you that it’s not easy, but it is possible – and let you know that you’re not alone.
