From Vision to Venture with Assia Mahmood

Episode #119. In this episode of Paid Vocation, I sit down with Assia Mahmood, the entrepreneur behind Windhaven Academy.

Assia shares her inspiring journey from corporate life to creating a childcare center with heart and purpose. As a mother herself, Assia knew she wanted to build a space that truly supports working moms, offering more than just care for kids, but a community for families. She talks candidly about the challenges of entering the industry with no experience, navigating a pandemic, and learning along the way.

Driven by her passion for creating a better childcare experience for working moms, she also authored the children’s book, My First Day of Daycare, to support families during pivotal transitions.

Assia’s story reminds us to trust our instincts, lean on our support networks, and never lose sight of our vision. Tune in to hear how passion and persistence help brought her dream to life.
