You are more than just a mom. You have skills, knowledge, and experience that can be tapped into and used to become an entrepreneur. Don't let anyone tell you (including yourself) that being a stay-at-home mom means you have to give up your dreams of starting your own business or you shouldn't pursue something that sets your heart on fire.
