RESEARCH
This research starts with mothers.
With their experience — the decisions, the mental load, the moments of clarity and the absence of it. With what modern motherhood actually demands and what it actually feels like to navigate it. That experience has gone largely undocumented. The Mom Life Leadership Survey exists to change that.
Why this research exists
Motherhood is one of the most complex leadership roles in modern life.
Yet the research that exists about mothers rarely examines them as the leaders of their own lives. The Mom Life Leadership Survey is original research designed to change that — examining how modern mothers across the US experience decision-making, mental load, and clarity, and building a body of evidence that reflects motherhood as the leadership role it actually is.
Findings are published here and directly inform the essays and framework at the heart of Chief of Mom Life.
