Laura Modi was horrified by the pressures put on new moms. So she built a business to try and combat them by focusing on the needs and challenges faced by modern parents. Modi, a mother herself, recognized the overwhelming expectations placed on women during and after pregnancy. She believes that the traditional narratives around parenting often lead to feelings of inadequacy and isolation.
With her innovative company, Modi seeks to provide support and resources that empower parents rather than overwhelm them. She emphasizes the importance of community and open dialogue in navigating the complexities of parenthood. By creating products and services that cater to the real-life experiences of families, she hopes to break the stigma surrounding parenting struggles.
Modi's mission extends beyond just her business; she advocates for a cultural shift in how society views motherhood. By challenging outdated norms and encouraging a more inclusive approach to parenting, she aims to create an environment where all parents feel supported and understood.
