Our Mission

The Power of Purpose: Our Mission

We are an online community of mothers dedicated to
  • inspiring each other through our experiences and perspectives,
  • empowering one another to use our minds and hearts as we become happy, purpose-driven women, and
  • uniting our energy to impact the world.
Mothers are precious and indispensable—we bring children into the world and strengthen societies by loving and nurturing our little ones.  We are heroes to our children as we create homes of safety, warmth, and love—and sometimes we even manage to enjoy tickle fights and hiding under blanket-tents.

We, at The Power of Moms, extend our appreciation to those mothers who are doing the best they can to build strong families.  We also acknowledge that behind our noble efforts are many complex challenges and hidden feelings of depression, guilt, or frustration.  Through all of the sacrifices that we make to care for our families, we sometimes forget that mothers are people, too.

Many of the resources available to mothers instruct us on how to do more, how to do it faster, and how to do it better.  “Experts” tell us all the things we are doing wrong, and the marketplace is constantly trying to sell us products that will bring “happiness” to our lives.  Very few voices are interested in helping us become truly happy mothers.

When we want real, down-to-earth, uplifting advice, we turn to each other.  It is the mothers who actually know what we are going through who can provide us with the best answers to our questions and the highest quality support.  After all, the last time an entire bottle of shampoo got dumped into the bathtub, who was willing to give you an optimistic way to look at the loads of lather?

In our world today, mothers are often isolated from one another, and meaningful conversations are few and far between.  This website is intended to connect mothers whose families are their highest priorities (or who would like them to be) in an optimistic, welcoming, focused online community.  We are here to teach other mothers in areas where we are strong, and to seek guidance in areas where we need encouragement.  

Whether a mother works outside the home or not, we all love our children and want to have happy families.  This website is not meant to discuss controversial topics, politics, or child-rearing tips.  We will leave advice about cooking, cleaning, and decorating to others; instead, we will focus on strengthening mothers, as women.

Please join us as we discuss how we, as healthy mothers, can think, act, and live with enthusiasm while keeping in line with our highest priorities.  This website is a resource mothers can access at any time of the day or night—whether we have showered that day or not.  It is a place where we can record what we have learned, celebrate moments we have had with our children, express appreciation to other mothers, and get new ideas about how to become the mothers we have always dreamed of becoming.
