E1: The Toughest Product Launch: Being a Mom

In the 1st episode of SaaS-y Moms, Wendy and Anya introduce themselves, their journey as mothers and tech professionals, and the purpose behind starting the podcast. Anya shares her experience as a new mom with a four-week-old baby, while Wendy reflects on her own parenting journey, managing three kids, including twins, alongside a thriving career in the tech industry.

The episode explores the challenges of motherhood—lack of sleep, juggling responsibilities, and learning on the go—and highlights the unique struggles of being women in the male-dominated tech industry.

This episode sets the stage for future discussions on balancing work and motherhood, overcoming challenges as women in tech, and lessons learned from both professional and personal experiences.
