Aligning Work, Mission, and Motherhood

Linda Alunkal is an entrepreneur, strategic business consultant, COO, founder and CEO, wife, and mother to two boys. In childhood, she and her family came to the United States as Chinese immigrants, and it’s those experiences that shaped her work ethic, outlook, and values. After an impressive corporate career with Johnson & Johnson, Linda pivoted to entrepreneurship after realizing her life’s mission—among other entrepreneurial endeavors. She’s now building bitebrave to help families navigate life-threatening food allergies with knowledge and confidence.   

In their inspiring conversation, Linda and host Samantha Saxby discuss:

• How your upbringing impacts your parenting style

  
  



• Parental leave for contract employees vs. full time employees

  
  



• Battling new mom anxieties

  
  



• Financial pressures of entrepreneurship

  
  



• Aligning your work and mission with your values
