Description
A recent Gallup poll concluded that stay-at-home moms were significantly less likely than working moms to consider their lives “thriving” and
experienced higher rates of depression. Even so, millions of mothers are choosing to put their careers on hold and stay home with their children.
From Boardroom to Baby shatters the stereotypes associated with “staying home” and empowers new moms to blaze their own unique paths through motherhood and beyond.
Along with a thoughtful map and modern-day tools to help moms carve out meaning and purpose in their new roles, From Boardroom to Baby offers:

About the Author:
After 15 years of climbing the corporate ladder, Kristin Helms decided to make the ultimate life pivot when her daughter was born in 2013 and traded her power suits and office with a view for yoga pants and life on the home front. Her transformation from marketing manager with a Fortune-500 company to stay-at-home mom has been a riotous journey, brimming with unexpected emotions, re-self-discovery, and the most beautiful moments of her life. Her book, From Boardroom to Baby, hits shelves in January 2018 and will help other career women turned stay-at-home moms navigate the transition.
Kristin articulates the heartfelt and honest side of raising tiny humans through her articles published in The Huffington Post, Literary Mama, and Big City Moms among other large parenting sites. Her mommy musings have been described as, “encouraging”, “refreshing” and “magic with words”. With a true pulse on today’s modern mom, Kristin’s prose cuts right to the soul of motherhood and exposes the inner thoughts of many mothers who echo her sentiments:
- “I really can’t explain how much this has helped me…”
- “Thank you for putting into words what so many of us are feeling…”
- “You said it for all of us!”
- “This is so touching! And real!”
Kristin is also the Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Tribe Magazine, a collaborative online publication exploring the heart and soul of motherhood. She reaches over 75,000 moms daily through her popular website and active social media channels. She’s had the pleasure of publishing and collaborating with over 200 mom writers, authors, and entrepreneurs since launching Tribe in 2016.

Featured Reviews
Carol E, Librarian
Confession: I completely misunderstood what this book was when I requested it! I thought it was going to be about having kids in general, not specifically transitioning to stay-at-home mommyhood. That said, it is absolutely well-written for this niche audience. I will recommend it to library patrons looking for this. Since the available literature heavily favors mothers who continue to work and striking a work/life balance, this will be a very well-read book.
