Interview with Maia Chiara Rossi, who thought entrepreneurship and motherhood sounds like the best mixture

Off balance

What is better than having one baby? Two babies?

No, I am not talking about twins, it is all about the journey of my dear friend, Maia Chiara Rossi, who chose the same path I did and decided to spice up her restaurant opening with a newborn baby. Maia is a sustainability professional with extensive technical expertise, a wide experience, and a focus on climate change, biodiversity, and climate finance.

You may or may not know but being an entrepreneur is not the easiest task in life and the journey can get lonely. You also feel very tired as you constantly juggling work and family time and even with a full-time nanny you feel something is not right. You love your business, are passionate about what you are doing and you have a goal, but at the same time there is a small question in your head that keeps sneaking back; ‘Am I missing out on something?’

As an entrepreneur, you learn time is a key and you know your ambitions will thrive you to your goal and believe your child is the lucky ‘unicorn’ that will make it to the growth stage instead of the decline period. During this time you learn a lot, and you learn how to be organized, never give up and just see your way through things without going a bit crazy from tiredness. These also apply to motherhood.

Maia and I could agree on one thing straight away, the length of maternity and paternity leave is not enough long and it does not allow you to spend enough time with your children. You know you are fighting for both of your children but sometimes you just sit on the bathroom floor and start wondering, is it worth it?

If you know what I am talking about or if you don’t but you want to know more about how to keep going when you can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel don’t hesitate to reach out.
