Gena (pronounced "jenna") is a mom to two reciprocal IVF babes, wife to her wife, and serial entrepreneur.
She was a corporate lawyer in NYC until she started her own law practice in Jan 2014. She then started a mama blog after the birth of her son Parker and 2 years ago, became a fitness + wellness coach after being a nationally competitive gymnast for 15 years. but of all the things she has done and all the awards she has won, "mommy" is her very favorite title of all.
In this convo, we cover what sparked her shift from the traditional corporate attorney route to becoming an entrepreneur, how she and Jordana tag-team working + parenting from home, their experience with reciprocal IVF, what it was like delivering during the early stages of the COVID19 pandemic, her experience with postpartum anxiety - what helped her, plus ideas for supporting loved ones going through it, how she's shifted approach to business in the early months (years) of motherhood (+ a super smart strategy for being of service without actually taking on new clients), and more. Enjoy!
