Motherhood is hard. Really hard. And it’s all we’re allowed to talk about. The exhaustion, the overwhelm, the sacrifice—those conversations are everywhere. And while they’re vital, they’re only part of the story.

What’s missing? The joy.

We know how isolating it can feel when the stories out there don’t resonate with your reality, when you don’t see the moments of happiness, connection, and fulfillment that make all the hard parts worth it. 

That’s why we’re calling on every mother who’s ever experienced those moments of unfiltered joy, no matter how small or underrepresented, to share them with us with #morejoymotherhood.

Let’s flood the conversation with joy, and remind the world of the beauty that exists alongside the challenges.

More Joy is a campaign and a call to action.
