Motherhood is a love that transforms.
Our Mission
The Mama Sagas is on a mission to change the narrative of motherhood from one of sacrifice to one of opportunity.
When you enter motherhood, you enter a band of heroes. Most of us don’t feel like Supermom – this gig tests the depth of our strength and resilience daily.
But if we meet the challenge, we realize motherhood is an opportunity: the chance to illuminate our true path, to realize our potential, to advocate for what we need, and to define our identity on our own terms.
Through first-person stories of triumph and transformation, and with tips for living a rich and fulfilling life with kids, The Mama Sagas celebrates what’s possible when we embrace every experience on our motherhood journey — good, bad, and everything in between.

#31Mothers: Carrie
After I had my first child and my 12 weeks of maternity leave were over, I was ready to go back to work. I ran to the stores and bought dresses in larger sizes, still not back to my original weight. I got my hair cut. I bought new shoes. I was ready. And then I...

Tomorrow is the kickoff to the #31mothers project. Each day in the month of May will feature a different woman's story, told in her own words. I couldn't be more honored to share the stories of these mamas with you. Motherhood is an amazing opportunity - one that...
Finding Supermom
I found Supermom - that elusive goddess, the doer of all the things. She wasn’t where I thought she’d be. Before I became a mom, I thought I would find her on Pinterest, crafting with her children each day after serving an organic, homemade lunch. I thought I...
Why I March
I march for my daughters. …Because they deserve a future full of possibility. Because they deserve choices. Because their bodies are theirs and theirs only, and no means no. Because they deserve to live without fear: without fear of wearing what they like or of...
The Tree Shall Stay
It is the wee hours of December 28. My children are still asleep, and the husband too. I sit in dark silence writing, the room lit only by my Christmas tree. My gaze moves across the room to the window. The still and dark of winter is pierced with a single row of...
Blessing Bags and the Ripple Effect of Giving
Two days ago, I posted on Facebook about a simple yet profound interaction I had earlier in the day: Today, as I drove home from work, I pulled up to a stoplight next to a homeless man with a sign that said "Grateful Always". I rolled down my window as he sat...

It's Wednesday: the day that we celebrate mamas (and dads too!) who have turned their parenting sagas into genius ideas. Today we introduce you to Baby Backups, the brainchild of Megan and her husband Steve, from Pittsburgh, PA. You know how some memories from your...
