My First Shift Back as a Barista After Postpartum | Owning A Coffee Shop Vlog Series

Описание: Coming back behind the bar after postpartum was more emotional than I expected.

In this vlog, I’m sharing my first shift back as a barista and coffee shop owner at Harlem Java House. A lot has changed since I last worked a full shift. We launched new drink recipes, updated our workflow, and tightened our systems. I was nervous walking in, wondering if I’d still have it in me.

But once the rush hit, something familiar happened. Muscle memory kicked in. The movements came back. And I was reminded how powerful it is to have a team you trust and systems that support you.

At the end of the day, we gathered for a team meeting focused on consistency. We talked about why sticking to systems matters. Not to feel robotic, but so we’re free to focus on what really matters. Hospitality. Caring for people. Serving with intention.

This vlog is about:
• Returning to work postpartum
• Life as a coffee shop owner
• Training baristas and building consistency
• Creating systems that protect hospitality
• Learning to rely on your team

Whether you’re a barista, small business owner, or navigating postpartum while returning to work, I hope this video encourages you.

Thanks for being here and for supporting our little café.
