EP28 Sophie Baron on Entrepreneurship, Motherhood and Overcoming Negative Self Talk

My guest this week is Sophie Baron, founder of Mama Made. Mama Made helps parents home-cook nutritionally-dense, organic and plant-based meals for their weaning babies – quickly and conveniently, without compromise. In this episode, we talk about how Sophie has bootstrapped Mama Made and the practical financial decisions Sophie and her husband had to make. We discuss self-development, how overcoming negative self-talk is essential to success and that entrepreneurship forces you to grow in ways you never expected. Sophie shares how she takes big risks whilst keeping the business in perspective with family life, and her exciting plans for Mama Made in 2020!
