As a business owner, stepping away from your business—even for something as important as maternity leave—can feel overwhelming. How do you keep things running smoothly without you? Will clients leave? Will your business suffer? These are the questions so many women in business struggle with when preparing for maternity leave. That’s why I’m so excited to have Alyson Caffrey on The Business Edit Podcast today.

Alyson is the founder of Master Maternity Leave and an operations consultant who helps business owners create space to step away from their businesses—whether for maternity leave, a sabbatical, or simply to regain their time freedom. After her own experience of struggling to take maternity leave, she developed a framework to help other women do it differently—without the stress, burnout, or fear of business collapse.

In this episode, Alyson and I dive into everything you need to know about planning your maternity leave as a business owner, including how to set up systems that allow your business to run without you, common mindset blocks that keep entrepreneurs stuck, and why creating space to step away might actually grow your business in the long run. Even if you’re not planning a maternity leave anytime soon, this conversation is packed with valuable insights for any business owner who wants to create a more sustainable, life-first business.

If you’ve ever wondered how to step away from your business without everything falling apart, this episode is for you! Tune in now to The Business Edit™ Podcast.
