As a follow-up to my previous post on Mom Entrepreneurs, I wanted to highlight 3 other mom entrepreneurs that I’m very familiar with:
- Wendy Bird: Wendy is the founder of the very successful MyPrincessPearls.com. My Princess Pearls sells pearl jewelry that has been hand-crafted by women in Thailand and the Phillipines. Not only do they sell gorgeous jewelry (my wife has some), but they also help out the women that have been rescued from dire circumstances, many of them living in temporary housing, and raising children on their own. Through employment, their lives, and the lives of their children, are lifted. Greaty story and Great company. I was honored to recently have been asked to serve on their board.
- Kelly Anderson: Kelly is the Founder and CEO of Sweet and Charming. Sweet & Charming is a children’s experience based retail company for children aged 3-10 with a castle theme. Kelly is incredibly motivated and has already placed in a few business plan competitions across the country.
- Rachael Herrscher: Rachael is the founder and CEO of Today’s Mama. Today’s Mama strives to simplify motherhood by making parenting resources accessible and easy to use. They have created handbooks, “mama pages”, and an online store with the goal of helping mothers. They have recently started to franchise their idea with terrific response.
I admire each of these women for their hard work, dedication, and life-balancing skills. I commend them for their efforts and wish them the best of luck in the future.
I wonder what it’s like being a mom entrepreneur? How do they balance their life? Do you know any other mom entrepreneurs that are juggling motherhood and entrepreneurship?
