Toni Toomey built and sold a startup and operated at the highest levels of business leadership. She was independent, driven, and ambitious.
Then she became a mom.
In this episode of Girl, Why Not You?, Toni shares how motherhood humbled her, shifted her identity, and exposed the gaps women face in postpartum support.
Frustrated by the lack of elevated nursing options and the reality of pumping at work, she founded Hone — a natural fiber postpartum apparel brand designed for modern, ambitious mothers.
We talk about:
• Building and exiting a company
• Leadership and reinvention
• The mental load of motherhood
• Pumping at work and postpartum dignity
• Ambition after baby
• Why you don’t settle when things get hard
If you’re navigating business, babies, or becoming a new version of yourself — this conversation will hit home.
