Rebuilding My Website Copywriting Business as a Mom Founder
You know that feeling when you try on your pre-pregnancy jeans for the first time? That's exactly how it felt getting back to my copywriting business after having my baby. Everything that once fit perfectly now felt uncomfortably tight, restrictive, and just... wrong.
The Foundation That Started to Crack
Before becoming a mom, I had built what looked like the perfect business. My copywriting services were in demand, my schedule was flexible, and I had complete control over my time and energy. It was this very foundation that gave me the confidence to start a family with my husband. After all, I had created the dream setup: working from home, setting my own hours, being my own boss.
Then my son arrived, and reality hit different.
When Your Business Clothes Don't Fit Anymore
Returning to work postpartum, I found myself trying to squeeze into old patterns that no longer served me. Sure, I could lean on the foundation I'd built – my established processes, my client base, my brand reputation in the copywriting space. But something felt off.
A year into motherhood, I finally admitted what I'd been avoiding: the foundation wasn't just uncomfortable – it was crumbling. The very things that had made my business perfect for starting a family (flexibility, time ownership, working from home) had somehow morphed into constraints.
The Excavation Process
Here's what became crystal clear: if I, a professional website copywriter, was struggling to show up authentically in my business as a mom, what about other service providers? What about the agency owners, floral designers, and photographers navigating this same transition?
This realization sparked a complete rebuild of my business, focused on three key elements:
Getting ruthlessly clear about who I wanted to serve
Protecting my time like a mama bear protects her cubs
Creating systems that actually work for mom life
The Missing Piece in Website Copywriting
What I discovered was a gap in the market that hit close to home. Mom founders don't just need website copywriting – they need a complete system for clarity around brand voice, website copy, and content that serves as the foundation for their entire business presence.
They need copy that:
Attracts clients who respect family boundaries
Converts while they're handling the fifteenth snack request of the day
Builds authority without requiring constant content creation
Shows up and sells even when they can't
A New Foundation Built for Mom Life
Today, my website copywriting business looks different; and it’s by design. It's built with the understanding that running a business as a mom isn't just about finding work-life balance – it's about creating a new definition of success altogether.
"You don't need to squeeze into your old business model. Sometimes, the most powerful thing you can do is rebuild from the ground up, creating something that fits who you are now – not who you were before."
