maternal mental health

resources

In a world that often expects Black women to be strong, we hold space for them to release those burdens, rediscover themselves, and embrace vulnerability—free from shame, guilt, or judgement.

Through our workshops, retreats, counseling services and exclusive membership, we help moms explore their identities, gain valuable tools, and build meaningful connections with like-minded women.

Black mothers are more likely to struggle with PMADs but due to stigma, implicit bias, and societal pressure, they are less likely to seek care.

A letter from our founder
I created the space I needed as a mom

I launched Motherhood Redefined in 2020, during the COVID-19 shutdown and the civil unrest following George Floyd’s tragic murder. Like so many mothers, I felt completely overwhelmed—juggling homeschooling, work, and my own well-being, all while trying to process the heartbreak and uncertainty around me.

I desperately needed a space to share my thoughts and feelings, but when I couldn’t find one that truly reflected my experiences; I decided to create it. Out of that personal need, Motherhood Redefined was born.

What started as a simple social media page has grown into a thriving community that’s changing the way moms show up for themselves and each other. It’s become a safe space where women regardless of their background can connect, let their guard down, and realize they’re not alone in their struggles.

So whether you’re new here or have been with us from the start, welcome! We’re redefining what it means to thrive as mothers, and we’re building something meaningful—together. The journey is just beginning.

With gratitude,
