The original post
I’ve been a mom for two full months now. And it’s been… honestly, incredible. Before this, I had all the fears. Will I lose myself? Will I lose my edge? Will the ambition, the drive, the obsession with building just… fade? You hear those stories. But here’s the truth no one told me clearly enough: Nothing disappeared. I’m still me. Still driven. Still excited to build, create, grow. The only difference? Now I have this tiny human who somehow made everything feel bigger, not smaller. More purpose. More love. More motivation. And yes, I can’t wait to get back to work. To my team. To our customers. To building Chatbase. I didn’t come back slower. I came back stronger. (Also… technically, I came back with one extra team member.) So to every woman thinking about this, worrying about this, overthinking this: You don’t have to choose. You don’t lose yourself. You expand.
