Episode Introduction: 

In this week’s episode of Law Chat with Girija, our guest Lesley Pyle joins us to talk about the powerful platform that she has created, AKA Hire My Mom. Through her platform’s interface and courses, she helps stay-at-home moms get back into the workforce by finding remote work opportunities.


Episode Summary: 

Lesley Pyle walks us through her journey of starting her freelance business after she became a mother and pioneering a platform for stay-at-home mothers back in 1997. She shares how the concept has evolved since then into what’s known as Hire My Mom today. This episode is a must-listen for every parent who’s ready to get back into the workforce without leaving their house.


Main Takeaways:

  • As a stay-at-home mom trying to get back into the workforce, it’s important for you to highlight your soft skills to try and get new jobs.

  • Learn the common tools that are used in the job roles that you’re applying to. Adding it to your resume can really help increase your chances of being considered for roles.

  • Most new entrepreneurs don’t have the budget to hire a business manager when they first start, so it’s important to learn the operations of your business as you go.

  • The four most likely things to act as an obstacle for a stay-at-mom trying to work are:

  1. Money

  2. Time

  3. Motivation

  4. Fear
