We’re the mothers bringing both financial and emotional richness — and the power to change the systems for our families and community
Reclaiming What It Means to Be a Breadwinner
Because the truth is — we’re not choosing between career and family.
We’re designing a new way of living that makes both thrive.
We exist to quiet the mental overload of working motherhood by creating a supportive and empowering community that replaces guilt with confidence and individual struggle with community and agency.
This is about wholeness, not balance.
About power with softness.
Ambition without apology.
To make every mom feel less guilty - less guilty about whether they're raising their children right, spending enough time with them, nurturing their marriage, taking care of themselves, being healthy enough, or doing enough in their career.
our goal is simple:
But we’re here to reclaim and redefine what it means to be a Breadwinner in today's culture. We're expanding the definition beyond financial contribution to include emotional richness, systemic change, and the power to redesign both industries and family structures.
For decades, “breadwinner” meant a paycheck.
'They redesign industries while redesigning family systems that never accounted for their ambition'

we help you honor these shifts, creating lives roomy enough to hold every version of yourself across all stages.
Some seasons ask us to prioritize home, stepping back from career acceleration to be present for what our families need. Other seasons find us leaning hard into professional pivots - a promotion, a startup launch, a make-or-break project - while family life finds its own steady rhythm. We're different people than we were last year, and we'll be different again next year.
For Breadwinner moms, each season brings its own rhythm -
You might be nursing through night shifts while preparing for a board presentation. Building a startup while teaching your child how to read. Holding space for a teenager’s heart while steering your company through a pivot.
Each one reshapes us — stretching our capacity, deepening our purpose, expanding who we are becoming.
Motherhood & Ambition move in seasons...
Your partnership makes this possible. When you champion a Breadwinner mother, you're not just supporting one person, you're redesigning family systems for the next generation.

The Breadwinner Community is...
"I have never felt so seen personally and professionally at the same time"
I left knowing that there are other women out there who share both my level of ambition and love for family, and knowing that we are refusing to believe that these things must be at the expense of one another. Yes, there are trade offs, and we're making them. But there are also incredible gifts in what we are building. Everyone was SO sharp, driven, and also warm and supportive. From women just getting their first sku off the ground to founders running billion dollar companies and funds, these are my people
- Kate McAndrew, GP of Baukunst VC
Now I'm somewhere between those worlds: building what I hope becomes an empire while managing 3 young boys at home. The tension between those two roles - who I was and who I'm becoming - is what The Breadwinners is all about!”
- D’Nae, founder
"The Breadwinners concept really resonates with me as I spent years as the primary earner before taking a leap to build my company - trading the security of big tech paychecks and equity for a mission I couldn't ignore after having my kids.."
- Amy Kiska, Co-founder of Recess
"I was introduced to Breadwinners when I was two months postpartum, while I was juggling newborn life and closing a funding round for Recess. I found a powerhouse circle of women who were inspiring and relentlessly supportive. It changed my early motherhood journey, and I am so grateful to be part of this incredible group."
