Whether you’re running your own business, leading a team in the corporate world, or molding minds in your organization, The Spoiled Mummy salutes you!
A few posts back I asked, Who are the #MummyBosses around us? We all know that it’s not easy being a mum-who-works and we all need that pat on the back from our fellow mums to share our triumphs and victories together.
And so this is the beginning of our celebration of mothers-who-work, particularly of mothers who are powerful and influential in their own right, mothers who are achievers and successful in their places of work, and mothers, who despite their stature as “bosses,” have not forgotten that the family still comes first and foremost!
#MummyBosses is a new and will be an ongoing series on The Spoiled Mummy featuring trailblazing working mums who lead, inspire, and achieve in their fields, all while taking good care of their families.
We start with these three #MummyBosses we think you should know:

JOANNA PREYSLER FRANCISCO
Designer / Entrepreneur/ Carbon, Tint, Eterno, Joanna Preysler Boutique
Joanna Preysler Francisco designs for the modern woman via the fashion brands that she runs with her husband, Raul. Whether it’s for the precise and uncontrived Carbon, the feminine bohemian Tint, the exotic elegance of Eterno and Joanna Preysler Boutique, Joanna’s stylish creations reject the “trend” mentality. This — her preference for timeless design and superior quality — explains a lot about how she helps uplift the Filipino retail scene.
