What the Data Reveals About Motherhood Today with Lauren Prentiss

Moms are often the first to notice when something is changing in their children, their families, and their communities but so much of what mothers experience goes unseen and unmeasured.  Today, Lauren Prentiss of Count on Mothers joins me to share what their first national benchmark reveals about motherhood in America today. From the overwhelming early years of parenting and the financial pressures families are facing to the surprising number of mothers putting off their own healthcare because of cost, the data puts real numbers behind experiences so many moms already know firsthand.  They also discuss where mothers across the political spectrum are finding common ground, why making these experiences visible matters, and how research like this can help inform the companies, policymakers, and organizations making decisions that impact families.  Most importantly, Lauren shares an encouraging reminder for moms: your observations matter and chances are, you’re seeing more than you give yourself credit for.  Read the Wave One Benchmark and learn more about Count on Mothers at countonmothers.org Please join us on YouTube for our full conversation and many more on video!
