31. Pumping Rights and Workplace Advocacy w/ Sarah Wells

  • Summary

  • The energy and passion that Sarah brings to today's conversation and the entrepreneurial space is palpable.

    Sarah Wells is a leading figure in breastfeeding advocacy and the founder of Sarah Wells Bags. Starting her company 13 years ago in her garage, it has since flourished into an internationally recognized brand offering pump bags and essential motherhood products. Prior to this venture, Sarah served as the Executive Director of a national nonprofit in Washington D.C. Her journey into motherhood began in 2011, when she became an exclusively pumping and supplementing mom herself. Balancing the demands of new motherhood and a thriving career proved challenging, prompting Sarah to pivot her focus towards supporting working moms through her business.

    In today's episode, Sarah and I explore the importance of creating supportive workplaces for mothers and the unique obstacles faced by mom entrepreneurs. We delve into Sarah's bold decision to transition from her established career to entrepreneurship full-time, the crucial role of product adaptation during the pandemic, the benefits of securing small-business loans, and why sustainable growth outshines rapid expansion in business success.

    Adding to her accomplishments, Sarah is now a published author with her upcoming book, "Go Ask Your Mothers: One Simple Step for Managers to Support Working Moms for Team Success." She offers insights into why championing working mothers isn't just morally sound but also advantageous for business profitability. Sarah's episode is packed with invaluable advice and wisdom, reflecting her contagious energy. I'm eagerly anticipating her book's release, and I encourage you to grab a copy for yourself (linked below)!
