Throwback Thursday: Being a Full-Time Mom Isn’t a Real Job

How many times have we heard that over the last several decades? But if motherhood isn’t a job, I guess these aren’t critical business skills:

Consensus building
Negotiations
Multi-tasking
Project management
Presentations and public speaking
Coaching and mentorship
Prioritizing
Strategic planning

Friend and client Amy Smith, who runs her own PR firm while raising her three sons, and has is proving to doubters everywhere that motherhood really is a business — and a worthwhile one at that. Her Business of Motherhood website and accompanying Mom-Tini Lounge are full of great tools, advice, and support for businessmoms. And Amy was recently featured on Fox News!

Thanks, Amy, for setting the world straight on parenting as a legitimate business.
