01 | You are enough – with Sophie Ader

RELEASED AUG 31, 2021

One of my previous executive bosses and all ’round wonderful human, Sophie Ader, talks candidly about her pregnancy to postpartum journey and life as a working mother of two in her dream role.

Sophie’s top tips for doing ‘Postpartum like a boss’ are:

  • Do some research and or a course on breastfeeding if you’re thinking this is how you want to feed your child.
  • Get practical help to be looked after as a new mother. Or set low expectations, survival is the key.
  • Take the time you need away from your career (this can be a long or a short time – it’s about what works for you!)
  • Know that YOU ARE ENOUGH as a mother. No matter what, you are enough.
Trigger warning:
