Inspiring Moms Who Are Doing Amazing Things: Mother's Day Edition

They say when a child is born, a mother is also born. In fact, the psychiatrist Daniel Stern explained that becoming a mother is an identity shift, and it’s one of the most significant physical and psychological changes a woman will ever experience. Perhaps this is one of the reasons that we see so many amazing women blossom into strong, inspiring, badass females after becoming mothers.


We are constantly meeting and discovering so many mothers who are doing amazing things. From creating their own companies to building their own brands, starting important conversations, breaking stigmas, and propelling themselves onto a path of passion. So this year for Mother’s Day, we want to recognize and support some of these amazing women and share them with you!


Allison Robinson


Allison Robinson is on a mission to build a better workplace for moms. She is a mom of 3 and the CEO and founder of The Mom Project, which focuses on getting moms back into the workforce after maternity leave. Allison believes that too many talented women are lost in the workforce because they can't find the right balance between their career goals and desire to build a family. The Mom Project helps women search for career opportunities on their platform from vetted, family-friendly employers. And they get access to job search tools, career development resources, and a thriving community of moms and allies. Today, The Mom Project currently has more than 500,000 women seeking employment through their platform and the company is expected to reach $60 million this year. It raised an $80 million Series C round in the fall of 2021 for a private valuation of $330 million! The company also has powerhouse - Serena Williams as a strategic adviser. Needless to say, Allison is a mom who is truly creating and shaking up the workplace for moms.

As a mom of two herself, she is familiar with the challenges many women face in the workplace. Daphne is on a mission to educate every woman in California on her rights at work.

Elyse Myers


A TikTok sensation, Elyse Myers brings complete authenticity to funny everyday stories. Elyse is a mom and wife and has a way of being super relatable and honest where people can’t help but to fall in love with her content, to the point that she has literally created a community made up of millions and millions of people. Elyse shared, “I started making videos because I needed a little bit of an outlet that wasn't work. It wasn't my husband, it wasn't my son, just something that was separate, my own thing that I could do and create. I chose it as a creative outlet and started telling my stories….I want to continue to share the ordinariness of my life, and to continue just showing people that there are very extraordinary things that happen in ordinary moments.”

Tovah Haim began her career in tech and finance but followed her passion to start her own company on a mission to bring moms better support for postpartum healing. Tovah was completely unprepared for how intense the recovery from birth would be when her first child was born in 2017. Astounded at the lack of credible information available to explain what was happening, and shocked by the substandard product available to get through all of it, she decided to create Bodily.
