I actually think that running your own business can help you if you’ve got a young family. When my husband joined the business ten months in, I made the conscious decision that one of us would be home at 4.30 every single day to have a meal with our children. I also drop my son off at school every morning, and I probably wouldn’t be able to do that if I was working in the long hours environment, and it’s all for somebody else anyway.

The downside of that is I’m working on my laptop at midnight some nights, but that’s my decision. To be able to have that flexibility to work when you want to is great when you have young children.
