Michelle Hon began her first pregnancy like most moms, incredibly excited and secretly terrified. Being faced with the copious, seemingly unending, incredibly confusing, amount of information on the Internet, detailing all 'the right things to do', just added to her fear and confusion. Systematically sorting through all she found—through trial and error, three pregnancies and raising her children—she discovered the secrets to becoming a chill mom. She now passes her knowledge on to you.

The Founder of The Chill Mom Baby Planner & Maternity Concierge, Michelle has helped many successful professional women plan for and manage the arrival of their babies. She has been featured in the Asian Entrepreneur and Lifetime Asia, and writes for New Age Parents and The Asian Parent. She shares her motherhood tips and advice on her award-winning blog, thechillmom.com.
