Our Philosophy

We want to create a world where mamas can be connected deeply to themselves and to each other. To move beyond conversations of parenting styles and judgements and deeper into supporting the inner work of motherhood. Mamas change the world. Mamas protect and provide and are powerful. And yet, so many of us live just on the surface, just deep enough to get by every day, to survive. We manage tiredness, guilt, judgement from ourselves and others, trying to be perfect, trying to do it all, and trying to care for everyone else but ourselves.

What if we became the person we want our children to be? What if we mothered ourselves like we mother our children? What if we spoke to ourselves the way we speak to those we love?

Maven Mamas is a collective respite for women. We are a reminder that motherhood is life changing in the most important ways and that you are not alone on this journey. We deliver wisdom that reminds you... well, of you. That you need to be cared for and nurtured and empowered. Mothering starts within and becomes alchemical in our lives. We just want to be your friendly reminder to be present in it - even on the hardest days. 

our story

"Can't someone just make an app that reminds me that I'm doing a amazing job, that I'm a rock star, and that motherhood is hard and amazing at the same time, and it's ok to admit that???" 

This was the conception of Maven Mamas. Two exhausted, passionate, entrepreneurial mamas got together just to have coffee to catch up on life - and two weeks later the plans were coming together for an app to support mamas and remind them how beautiful, powerful and amazing they are. We floated the idea by a few friends and they said, yes, do it! And so we did.

We asked the mamas in our lives on Facebook and via text for the most important wisdom they received as a mama and we received over 150 responses. What we found interesting is that over half was focused on how to parent. And while we recognize the importance of practical advice, we relished in the universal wisdoms in the other half of the responses. Sage words under the umbrella of self care that called forth a deeper connection to self, greater compassion, letting go of perfect, learning to trust, and relying on our intuition. 

 About Us

We are three mamas with six children, four dogs, 7 chickens and a kitten between us. Motherhood is a mixed bag of joys and challenges, tears and laughter and we've been able to share in it all with each other.
