The Society of Working Moms is a community for and by moms of all ages and stages who love their families and their careers but who might not feel fully supported in either.

Take it from our members.
We’re pretty damn awesome.

  • I was hungry for a community of working moms who wanted to juggle sick days & daycare schedules alongside career advice and support. The WM Slack group is the virtual water cooler I've been missing and my new favorite way to start the day.

    Jolene B.

  • This is the space I literally didn't even know I needed but now I can't imagine being without.

    Emily S.

  • It's a place I can go to feel uplifted, feel supported, feel seen, and feel understood as a working mama. I especially treasure our weekly coaching sessions.

    Carisa D.

  • So incredibly grateful for... this space of incredible women/moms!

    Monét M.

  • My favorite thing about this community is that it walks the walk — it lives up to what I think we were all hoping it would be. It provides a safe space for working moms, who, between their jobs and their children, are inevitably "on" 24/7... we laugh together, learn from each other, cry a little and lift each other up.

    Jillian W.

  • The Society of Working Moms is already a powerhouse group of women. I'm delighted to be in such good company.

    Ellory R.

  • I love that the Society of Working Moms provides a space that is not home and not work for me to connect and build relationships with other moms!

    Corey H.

  • My favorite thing is the respect we all have for each other as working moms regardless of our situations, because we know how much grit, endurance, and courage it takes!

    Patreeya T.

  • As a new mom, I've realized how important community is. WM is a great platform to collaborate with women working hard to provide for their families while trying to raise sweet humans.

    Amelie B.

  • I love the vulnerability and safety to be vulnerable. Too many times, moms find themselves at a crossroads hoping to not be met with shame or judgement. That doesn't happen here.

    Meghan B.

  • It’s nice to have a low-pressure space to share ideas, ask questions, and find solidarity with others. I’m looking forward to learning more from this diverse and powerful group of moms!

    Carolyn B.

  • You can be yourself, ask any questions, support other moms, ask for feedback. Plus, I'm learning a lot that I didn't know I needed to know, especially through the coaching... I'm learning to make time for myself.

24/7 Async Community

An unabashedly supportive space you can go to share wins, grieve losses, ask shame-free questions, and offer up support to working moms walking a similar path as you are. (The women in this group get it. “Posting in here is like getting a big group hug.”)

Monthly⁽⁺⁾ Workshops

We bring in an expert each month to present on a topic of interest, plus members have the chance to lead their own workshops for the community. This means we average 2-3 workshops per month, all of which are presented at no cost to members and many of which are available for replay.

Weekly Group Coaching

Access to our coach-in-residence, Jess Ringgenberg of ELIXR Coaching & Consulting, via weekly coaching conversations. Topics are voted on by group members and, outside of the dedicated hour of coaching, members can chat async on the themes throughout the week!

Networking (that feels natural)

Embedded in this community are several opportunities — dedicated Slack channels, events, etc. — to make connecting with other working moms easy, fun, and low-pressure.
We fully embrace “come as you are” and “connection over perfection” in here!

The No-Stakes Book Club

A book club designed specifically for busy moms. We give ourselves grace and time to read (or listen to!) books, pacing ourselves at 5-6 pages a day. We vote for titles every quarter, and chat about the book (no spoilers!) throughout the month. We end with a free author book chat whenever possible!

FAQ

  • We are a network of moms who are committed to uplifting and supporting our fellow moms.

    It’s not just another app. It’s not a faceless message board. It’s a true community, built within Slack to be compatible for async community building and your use throughout the workweek.

    (No experience with Slack? Not a problem! It’s fairly intuitive and our founder/community manager, Kate, is dedicated to making sure you feel confident navigating the channels so that you can get the most out of the group!)

  • Whether you've used Slack before and been put off by either a community of crickets or moderation-less chaos, haven't used it before and are loathe to learn another platform, or love it and can't get enough of it... we've got you covered!

    Here is a quick intro video that gives you the rundown!

  • As the name implies, this group is for moms who are in the workforce. However you define those two identities is up to you!

    Whether you're a first-time expectant mom, a “bonus” mom, or an empty nester; whether you work part time for yourself or are CEO at a Fortune 500, we hope you will find a home in The Society of Working Moms. (And with a 30-day money-back guarantee, why not give it a try?

  • Coaches who are moms are certainly welcome to join if they are looking for good old fashioned mom-to-mom support. We have a clear “no sales” policy, so this should not be a place for coaches (or anyone else) to get clients.

    And because we have coaching as a community offering, we simply ask that you take off your “coaching hat” and only wear your “mom hat” while engaging in the community.

  • Membership is $25/mo (or $250/year). We do gift a handful of scholarships each month for moms who are looking for work plus a discount for moms who are self-employed. Reach out to Kate for more details: hello@katetovsenmedia.com.

  • You never know what you don’t ask! Here is an email template for making the case to your manager! (This is merely a starting point; make it your own!)

  • Wow, how very thoughtful of you! We do have gift memberships available for our annual plans ($250).

  • Not at this very moment, but we would love to chat about how our community of supportive women and experts can support your working moms! Please reach out at hello@katetovsenmedia.com.
