STEM, Corporate and Career-Minded Moms:
Â
Turn the Motherhood Penalty into your greatest advantage.
Your Motherhood Advantage starts here!
Get the career, home life, health, and financial satisfaction you deserve, while engineering a better world for your children.
As Seen On
You see the signs of the Motherhood Penalty around you, but instead of being discouraged, you’re driven. As you rise through the ranks, you notice fewer and fewer women like you—and it’s not because they aren’t capable. You know many are held back by the mental load, societal expectations, and an invisible ceiling. Yet, you’ve pushed past these barriers. But even for someone as capable as you, it can feel lonely at the top.
Â
That’s why you’re ready to not just break through but to lead the charge for others. You don’t have time to be stuck in survival mode—you’re here to engineer your own success, both at work and at home. You’ve achieved so much already, and now it’s time to step into your next level with intention. The leadership, the wealth, the integration—you want it all, and you’re not willing to settle for less.
STEM, Corporate, and Career-Minded Moms:
Turn the Motherhood Penalty into Your Ultimate Advantage.
Â
You’ve seen how the Motherhood Penalty plays out—some of the brightest women sidelined by burnout, reduced opportunities, and wealth gaps. You won’t let that be your story. Now is the time to turn the pressure into power. You’re ready to rewrite the narrative, where motherhood becomes an asset and fuels the success you know you’re capable of achieving.
For the Woman Who Leads and Won’t Settle for Less
Â
You’ve spent years defining yourself through your career—whether it’s STEM, corporate leadership, or another demanding role. And now, after having kids, you’ve noticed how things have shifted. The demands of motherhood have tested your systems and your stamina, but instead of viewing these challenges as barriers, you see them as stepping stones to something greater.
You don’t want to be part of the statistic—exhausted, burning out, or falling victim to the wealth gap that affects so many mothers. You’ve seen how fathers often rise with a “fatherhood premium,” while mothers are expected to carry both a mental and emotional load at home and at work. You’re done waiting for systems to change. You’re ready to lead the change.
It’s Time to Design Your Ultimate Leadership Strategy
You don’t need more books, advice from surface-level moms' groups, or productivity hacks that only get you so far. You need a premium network and proven systems that allow you to thrive in your career, at home, and in your finances. Pros&Babes is for women like you—women who want to lead with intention, find their people, and create lasting success on their own terms.
We’ll Help You Turn the Motherhood Penalty Into Your Biggest Advantage
Our programs aren’t for everyone. They’re for purpose-driven women who aren’t interested in just “getting by” but who are ready to step into their power and fully integrate their career and family life. You know that waiting for things to change isn’t an option, and you’re ready to lead with a new mindset and build the community you need to elevate every part of your life.
Â
With our guidance, you’ll:
- Build the systems that support both your professional goals and personal well-being.
- Find the community of like-minded women who understand your challenges and ambitions.
- Lead with confidence, integration, and a sense of peace that comes from knowing you’re thriving in all areas of your life.
You’ve already proven that you can lead—now, it’s time to lead smarter.
What Our Alumni Are Saying:
Amanda R., P.Eng. and Mom
 “
Unlike any other program, the MoMBA brings motherhood and career together. Its holistic approach covers 12 pillars, and they are all interconnected. Without a comprehensive program like this, I would have been left to figure out critical areas of my life alone. I would have spent a lot of time and energy in the process. As a mom, it’s already hard enough!
Melissa K. M., P.Eng. and Mom of three
 “
The energy Kinia has put into it is phenomenal because she's not just affecting us moms. She's affecting the relationship with your partner, and with our kids, and it's really eye opening, realizing that your biggest input in the world, the biggest way you could change the world, could be through the children that you're raising.
Patricia S., Engineer and Mom of four
“
I finally found a community of like-minded women wanting to be amazing mothers, and continue to do amazing things with our professional careers - supportive women who have fully offered advice and everything from “How do I make my husband see the value in doing this work with me?” to “What does your morning routine look like?”
How Do You Know the Motherhood Penalty is a Risk in Your Life?
As a driven leader, you’re already thriving in your career while balancing motherhood, but you’re also someone who’s always looking ahead. You’ve seen the subtle signs of the Motherhood Penalty in the lives of other women—shifts in confidence, increased mental load, and the challenge of carrying it all—and you know these are risks you need to stay ahead of.
You’re not waiting for things to spiral. You’ve worked hard to get where you are, and you’re determined to protect your success. You want to keep excelling in your career while ensuring your family life thrives. You’re committed to leading your life with intention and ensuring these risks don’t derail your progress.
Here are a few ways the risks may already be showing up, even as you manage them well:
➥ Mental health and anxiety issues, often linked to disturbed sleep
➥ A non-stop to-do list and feeling like they're never done
➥ Having to “do it all” on the home front, without your partner fully sharing the planning, execution, and follow-through equitably
➥ Perfectionism carrying from performing a high stakes job, which is making you anxious in parenting
➥ Doubt about being a good professional and mother
➥ Concern about multiple career breaks (for kids, parents, and a spouse) that will impact your earning and savings potential by a million dollars or more
➥ In some cases, feeling treated differently at work after motherhood or even with pregnancy
➥ A decrease in overall quality of life. And that's just part of the list. The MP affects all domains of your life. Without the right mindset work and action, many women find they lose their sense of self, their career momentum, and the joy in their marriages.
You’re too strategic and ambitious to let these challenges hold you back. You want more for your career, for your family, and for yourself. You’re ready to take proactive steps, with the right systems and community, to ensure you continue thriving—integrating your professional success, your family’s happiness, and your personal well-being.
You’ve already come this far. Now, it’s time to step fully into your next level of leadership, without waiting for the risks to become roadblocks.
