The unedited journeys of new moms as they navigate motherhood and the call to entrepreneurship.
Project: Mom shares the stories sitting at the heart of the complex intersection of motherhood and entrepreneurship. Emily Gorrie, now a stay at home mom, half expected her life to return to ‘normal’ after her daughter was born. She interviews women in all different stages of business creation and motherhood as well as shares solo episodes that touch on the questions and curiosities at the center of our newfound priorities.
How do we as new moms regain our power, our identities as we navigate a society that has certain expectations of us? While we may not have the answer, stick around and you may just find you are not alone in the search.
Our Mission.
The project is a series of interviews of mom-preneurs; women in different stages of business creation and motherhood. Our mission is create a sense of community among our audience and to provide support and comfort to women in a time of great change and growth.
The Inspiration.
The project inspiration came for me in that the first year of my daughter's life was life changing in a lot of ways. It was a year of powerful growth and change, a lot of it raw and challenging. And it felt as though I was just being told what I wanted to hear “all of this is normal, you are not alone, this sh** is hard, etc” but it wasn’t until I heard the story of a stranger that fully resonated with mine, did I feel like I was truly not alone in some of these feelings.
With that innate knowing, came a desire to share our stories with others who may find a sense of comfort and support from them.
About Emily.
Hi! I'm Emily and the voice behind Project: Mom.
I am a full time mom with a corporate sales and entrepreneurial background. My daughter, Olive, was born in Dec 2020 and my life has not been the same! The fact that I half expected it to return to normal is why this project exists.
I am huge believer in supporting moms who also have entrepreneurial dreams - we deserve to make it. So in addition to inspirational and motivational support through this podcast, I also offer tanglible project based work. Interested? Check out my services here.
