ICYMI: Starting this month, workers in the state of New York receive up to 20 hours of paid prenatal leave. 👏 👏🏾 👏🏿 And as co-founder of Motherly®, Liz Tenety, describes it: For too long, paid leave has been treated like an “expense” businesses can’t afford. But New York just flipped the script, recognizing that investing in moms isn’t just good for families—it’s good for businesses, communities, and future generations.

🖐 🎤 "The work of motherhood is often invisible, but its impact is anything but." - Paige Connell Moms get s#*t done.
Content Creator | Advocate | Speaker | Working Mom of 4 | Experienced Operations Manager
The mental load of motherhood is the invisible weight that many moms carry every day. It’s the constant mental checklist of tasks that never seem to end—remembering appointments, organizing meals, keeping track of school schedules, managing childcare, and making sure everyone’s needs are met. This mental load doesn’t just stay at home; it infiltrates every part of our lives, including our work. Moms are often juggling multiple responsibilities—handling tasks at home while also managing professional duties. The mental load of motherhood leaves little room for rest, and the stress it creates can affect our productivity, focus, and overall well-being at work. Until we acknowledge that the mental load is not just an issue in our homes, but a broader societal problem, we will continue to see inequities both at home and in the workplace. The work of motherhood is often invisible, but its impact is anything but. #mentalload #workingmom
