Through an Entrepreneurial Eye – 2020

This blog is a transcript of my interview with Natalie Naaman for her YouTube series called “Through an Entrepreneurial Eye” in 2020 when I had recently started my business. After downloading it was already over 3500 words (before any editing or writing a reflection) so thought I best start by cutting that down ha.

*On editing, I decided to have two blogs. The interview with Nat in one (there are too many golden nuggets to delete) and a reflection from then to now in the next so keep your eyes peeled*

Your Mumpreneur Squad

One thing on this journey of motherhood is we should never have to do it alone or feel like we are doing it alone. Support = ‘bear all or part of the weight of; hold up.’ We like to think we can do it all on this journey of entrepreneurship (we are superwomen after all, right 🦸‍♀️) but it takes a village to raise a business and a village to raise a baby. We don’t need to bear it all.

Why Food is the Ultimate Form of Self Care

by Renata Trebingupdated on November 8, 2022November 10, 2022

As mums, it is easy to put ourselves last. We place importance on looking after almost everybody else, our spouse, partner, kids, pets, other family members and friends, and end up forgetting to look after ourselves.

When our proverbial cup starts getting really low, we turn to self-care to fill it back up.

Gosh it can be lonely being a single mum, and not just a single mum, an entrepreneurial single mum! This may also apply to you mum’s who are not single!

We have so many ideas flowing around in our heads and not just ideas on how to improve and make our businesses the best we can, but also ideas on how we can be the best Mum we can be, how we can manage our time so that we are spending quality time with our children but also getting s**t done!!

Experiencing Mum Guilt

by Lucy Wattyupdated on March 8, 2022March 8, 2022

Mum guilt is real! Almost 90% of us feel it at some point, with over 20% of us feeling it all/most of the time. Isn’t that crazy?? Unfortunately we now live in a society, especially with social media where we compare ourselves to other mums journeys and other mums children. This is a failure of …

Managing Hyperemesis Gravidium

The NHS describe it as ‘Severe vomiting in pregnancy’ and quite frankly that’s only touching the surface. There is so much to this condition that people are still unaware of and this only adds to the confusion, loneliness and guilt surrounding it. But I can promise you that if you want an accurate account of what living with HG is like and how you can get through the day without wanting to cry, scream or take a cocktail of medication to just make the sickness go away you’ve found that here (ok I did lie a little bit, there was some crying and medication involved, but only the one!).

I almost can’t believe that there are only 4 weeks left to go until we are expecting our little bundle to arrive! As I’m sure you and especially other mummas can imagine these last few weeks of pregnancy have been more exhausting mentally & physically. And let’s not forget I am also the CEO of …

Getting to Know the Founder

by Lucy Wattyupdated on September 20, 2021August 29, 2021

Some of you may know me really well and some of you barely at all. Either way I am excited to have you here and on this journey with me. I decided months ago I’d share a blog about the face behind the business and give you a snippet into my life on my original business blog. Yet every time I sat down to write it, I’d get in a muddle of how to start, where to begin and what you might like to know. I had a reminder a couple of weeks ago I still hadn’t wrote this particular blog so I best introduce you properly to me, the founder of L J Your Virtual PA, L J Travel & Explore and The Mumpreneur Diaries, and my journey to where I am today.
