Through the Parentpreneur Accelerator Podcast, we help you to build the startup business of your dreams, whilst having time with the family you love. To do this, we share tips and experiences from successful (and earlier stage) parentpreneurs who know exactly what it's like to have a conference call while changing a nappy, or to write down a customer's email with a crayon while feeding a baby. :-) This podcast is hosted by serial entrepreneur and proud dad, Alexis Kingsbury. After 17+ years and 8+ startups, Alexis knows that building startups is not easy (just like parenting!). So this podcast aims to give you the advice you need to make it easier to create a successful startup business, without having to neglect quality time with your family.

In this episode I talk to Jeannette Washington, founder of Bearly Articulating, empowering parents to bear their entrepreneurial voices, based in Detroit, Michigan, USA. After relocating to Detroit, Michigan, Jeanette started a collective co-working space where parents can work at a desk, and their kids are cared for by guides, with activities like coding workshops. In this interview, we explore how her business has evolved to suit the needs of her audience, and what life is like for entrepreneur parents in her area and the USA as a whole. We discuss how building her business led to divorce with her husband, and whether her divorce could have been avoided. Jeannette also shared some tips on how to beat imposter syndrome and create a healthy business-life balance.
