Purpose drives us

our mission

resources

For generations, Black women have been praised for their resilience, their ability to push through hardship and perform strength, even when being strong came at the expense of their own wellbeing. But we're rewriting that story.

Motherhood Redefined is championing a new narrative for Black mothers, one where softness is honored, rest is encouraged, and vulnerability is met with care instead of shame or judgment.

We’re not just building a movement. We’re driving a cultural shift in maternal wellness and redefining what motherhood looks like for Black women.

40%
of Black mothers and birthing people experience maternal mental health conditions.
2-3x
Black mothers are more likely to experience mental health conditions, yet they are half as likely to receive care.
100%
While not all moms will experience a mental health condition, every woman faces mental health challenges that can affect her daily life.

our core values

Healing Centered: We prioritize emotional, mental, and generational healing — not just as self-care, but as a form of liberation for Black mothers and their families.
Radical Rest: We reject the narrative that moms should always be ‘on,’ constantly giving, and sacrificing themselves for everyone else. We embrace rest as an essential part of motherhood.
Cultural Identity: We center Black voices, experiences, and traditions in everything we do. Our work honors the unique challenges and beauty of Black motherhood without diluting or compromising its truth.
Empowerment through Community: We believe that no one should parent alone. We build spaces for connection so that every mother feels seen, heard and supported.
A letter from the founder
i created the space i need as a black mom

I remember the beginning of 2020 like it was yesterday. The world shut down almost overnight, and then just as we were getting in rhythm, the murder of George Floyd shook our communities to the core, bringing grief, anger, and fear to the surface in a way that couldn't be ignored.

All around me, Black mothers were struggling to hold it together for their families while juggling work, homeschooling, caregiving, pain and the heavy weight of isolation. Strength became the norm, and because safe spaces where we could share our truth weren't accessible, vulnerability became a luxury we couldn’t afford.

Out of frustration, I posted on social media to share how I was navigating the global unrest as a Black mom during the pandemic. To my surprise, my post went viral and mothers from all over reached out, asking for advice and sharing what they were experiencing. That moment made me realize how many of us were silently carrying the same weight, and it became clear that we needed a space to be supported.

That’s how Motherhood Redefined was born—a mental health platform where Black mothers could finally take off their cape and find the support they deserve.
