Following the birth of her son, Comms 101’s founder: Lisa Hollinshead was quickly confronted with the harsh, and very confronting reality that the prospect of returning to the workplace full time, was not only mentally daunting (mum guilt to the extreme), but also financially restrictive due to rising childcare costs. Upon founding Comms 101 to provide greater flexibility and more time with Albie in 2016. “I know from personal experience, I tend to work really smart and get work done in a timely and efficient manner, without compromising and results, so that any time I save is spent with my son.” Like me, Comms 101 consultants’ quickly realised that the smarter they worked, and more productive they were, the more time they had with their little one - win/win!
