070 | Showing up as you are: Pitching and presenting alongside your kids with Amy Lynch | BONUS

INTRO: My name is Amy Lynch and I'm the host and producer of the Mixing Babies And Business™ Podcast.

In today's solo episode I'm going to be sharing my approach to bringing all three of my kids into business settings over the past seven years, doing pitches and public speaking alongside them as babies, toddlers, preschoolers and primary school age kids.

This podcast episode is an edited recording of a session I presented last summer when my youngest was six months old – he didn't want to nap so I spoke while he was in the room with me, on my lap, feeding, babbling and playing.

THINGS I TALK ABOUT:

• My approach to help you prep like a pro, explore your options, show up as you are with your kid(s), rest and repeat
• Mapping it all out and adjusting your routines early on
• Why I don't think you should ask for permission or wait to be invited
• Getting comfortable with asking for help AND receiving it when it arrives
• The importance of celebrating the moment, building in time to recharge
• Experiment as you go, keep what you like and change what you need to

Season 5 has been sponsored by the Startup Women Fund, presented by Startup Canada, Scotiabank and UPS.
