What did the first month of running a business around two toddlers actually look like? Here’s the real version, week by week: the relief, the launch, finding my people, and a week with no naps.

The easiest way to network as a work-from-home mum is to swap big in-person events for small, regular, online connection that fits your real work windows. Send one thoughtful message a week, comment like a colleague, find one business buddy, join small online sessions with breakout rooms, know your one-line ask, and use replays when you can't make it live.

Working from home with kids isn't a new concept, but doing it in complete isolation is. Why the modern WFH setup left the 'village' behind, and how we can start getting it back.
