Explore how the concepts of Motherhood and Leadership intersect with Dr. Laura Marie Rivera.

What if Motherhood is one of the most powerful leadership trainings in the world? We’ve heard about the Motherhood penalty, but what about the Motherhood Advantage?

This podcast explores the powerful connection between Motherhood and leadership. Hosted by Dr. Laura Marie Rivera, the podcast grew out of Intuitionship, a groundbreaking research study with nearly 1,000 Mothers examining how the lived experience of Motherhood shapes the way women lead, solve problems, and navigate complexity.

Each episode features thoughtful conversations with remarkable Mothers—from bestselling authors and public leaders to entrepreneurs, creators, and Mothers just beginning their journeys. Together, they explore how Motherhood cultivates skills like adaptability, empathy, resilience, strategic thinking, and the ability to lead through uncertainty.

Part research, part storytelling, and part collective exploration, Motherhood Advantage invites us to reconsider a powerful idea: the experiences that prepare Mothers to nurture, guide, and protect the next generation also prepare them to lead in policy decisions and the paid workplace.

AMPLIFY Your Leadership: What Motherhood Teaches Us About Leading Well with Amy Miner-Fletcher

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mercredi 1 avril 2026 • Durée 43:41

Amy Miner-Fletcher—executive leadership coach, Licensed Medical Health Counselor, and Mother of two—joins the conversation to explore the powerful intersection of Motherhood and leadership. Through her AMPLIFY framework, Amy reframes Motherhood not as a competing force to professional growth, but as a dynamic training ground for it.

Together, we unpack the often-overlooked skills developed through Motherhood—empathy, adaptability, resilience, and clarity—and how they translate directly into effective, values-driven leadership. Amy shares how coaching and parenting mirror one another, requiring a balance of accountability and compassion, structure and flexibility, seriousness and joy.

The conversation dives into the core elements of AMPLIFY—Accountability, Mindset, Purpose, Planning and Parenting, Leadership, Innovation, Integrity, Family, and You—highlighting how these pillars support both personal and professional growth. We also explore the lasting impact of caregiving experiences, the shifts brought on by the pandemic, and the critical role of self-care in sustaining leadership over time.

At its heart, this episode is an invitation: to recognize Motherhood as a source of strength, to reconnect with your “why,” to ask for support, and to embrace change as a constant companion in both life and leadership.

Takeaways:

Motherhood builds essential leadership skills—empathy, resilience, adaptability—that are highly transferable to the workplace.
Leadership and parenting both require balancing accountability with compassion and clarity with flexibility.
The AMPLIFY framework provides a values-based structure for integrating Motherhood and leadership.
Self-care and support systems are not optional—they are foundational to sustainable leadership.
Growth comes from embracing change, staying connected to purpose, and recognizing the power of lived experience.

Leadership Skills Mothers Already Have (And How to Use Them) with Karen Sigalas

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

vendredi 27 mars 2026 • Durée 42:28

What if the moments that make you question yourself as a Mother are actually the ones building your strength as a leader?

In this episode of Motherhood Advantage, Dr. Laura Marie Rivera sits down with Karen Sigalas to explore how the everyday realities of Motherhood—decision-making, emotional labor, constant adaptation—are quietly shaping confidence, influence, and resilience in the workplace.

Through stories of raising her children and navigating her own career pivots, Karen reflects on a powerful truth: success is rarely linear. Instead, it’s built through presence, authenticity, and learning to trust yourself—especially in uncertain moments.

Together, they unpack the leadership skills Mothers develop every day but rarely name: empathy, communication, flexibility, and the ability to lead through unpredictability. This conversation offers practical insights on quieting self-doubt, approaching difficult conversations with clarity, and leading with compassion both at home and at work.

From embracing the seasonality of life to redefining what effective leadership really looks like, this episode challenges a common narrative—that Motherhood is a distraction from professional growth—and replaces it with something far more accurate: Motherhood is a masterclass in it.

Whether you’re returning to work, navigating a transition, or simply looking to better understand your own strengths, this conversation will help you recognize what’s already there—and learn how to use it.

In this episode of Motherhood Advantage, Dr. Laura Marie Rivera speaks with nonprofit consultant and author Sherry Whitaker Budziak about Motherhood, leadership, and resilience.

Elected to Lead, Shaped by Motherhood: Toshiko Hasegawa

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

jeudi 19 mars 2026 • Durée 34:53

Port Commissioners are elected officials, but often remain behind the scenes. In this episode, Toshiko Hasegawa brings that role—and her own story—fully into view.

As the first woman of Asian descent elected to the Port of Seattle, Toshiko is helping shape the future of regional trade while expanding what leadership looks like in spaces historically dominated by white men. But this conversation moves beyond titles and policy into something deeper: the intersection of public leadership and the private realities of Motherhood.

Toshiko speaks candidly about her experiences with pregnancy loss and the profound lesson many Mothers come to know—that we are not always in control. In a culture that often equates leadership with certainty and control, her story offers a different perspective: one rooted in trust, resilience, and intuition.

We explore how the body, in its own wisdom, knows how to release what is not viable—and how, in a different way, Mothers often know how to guide and raise their children without a map. These experiences shape not only how women Mother, but how they lead.

Toshiko also reflects on how her childhood in Seattle shaped her commitment to community, and how her leadership is working to expand opportunity and equity across the port’s aviation and maritime industries. Her work challenges systems built for exclusion while advocating for environmental sustainability, economic access, and long-term community investment.

In this episode, we explore:
• the unseen influence of port governance in our daily lives
• how representation transforms systems from the inside
• the tension between control and surrender in both Motherhood and leadership
• the role of intuition in navigating uncertainty
• and what it means to lead while holding both personal loss and public responsibility

At its core, this conversation asks a powerful question:
What if the experiences that shape us most deeply as Mothers—loss, uncertainty, intuition—are also what make us stronger, more human leaders?

Keeping Them Alive, Teaching Them to Thrive with Catherine Temkin

Saison 2 · Épisode 7

lundi 22 juin 2026 • Durée 27:38

What if some of the most important leadership work in our society is happening in kitchens, carpools, living rooms, and bedtime routines—and hardly anyone recognizes it as leadership?

In this deeply personal episode of Motherhood Advantage, Dr. Laura Marie Rivera sits down with her sister, Catherine Temkin, a publishing professional and Mother of three, to explore the often-invisible work of Motherhood and the leadership skills it quietly develops over a lifetime.

Together, they unpack the foundational responsibilities of caregiving that most people take for granted: keeping children safe, healthy, loved, supported, and prepared for adulthood. Catherine reflects on more than three decades of parenting, sharing how motherhood evolves as children grow and why the work extends far beyond meeting basic needs.

The conversation explores how Mothers become experts in resilience, communication, problem-solving, relationship-building, and long-term development—all while balancing careers, households, and the ever-changing needs of their families. Catherine also draws powerful parallels between parenting and leadership in the paid workplace, discussing her mentoring approach, the importance of trust, and why effective leaders know when to step back and allow others to grow.

This episode is a reminder that leadership is not defined by titles or authority. Often, it looks like nurturing potential, creating opportunities for others to succeed, and doing important work that may never receive public recognition.

Whether you're a parent, manager, mentor, educator, or someone who has benefited from the care of others, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what leadership truly looks like—and why the skills developed through motherhood deserve far more recognition than they receive.

Key TakeawaysMotherhood Is More Than Survival

Keeping children fed, clothed, and safe is only the beginning. Mothers are also responsible for helping children develop confidence, resilience, character, and independence.

Invisible Work Is Still Leadership

Many of the most important leadership responsibilities happen behind the scenes and often go unrecognized, both at home and in organizations.

Raising the Next Generation of Culture Keepers with Rayna Tabanera-Geras

Saison 2 · Épisode 6

lundi 15 juin 2026 • Durée 25:35

What if Motherhood wasn't viewed as an individual responsibility, but as a shared community commitment?

In this episode of Motherhood Advantage, Dr. Laura Marie Rivera sits down with Rayna Tabanera-Geras to explore how Indigenous perspectives on Motherhood, advocacy, and community challenge many of the assumptions embedded in mainstream parenting culture.

Drawing from her tribal traditions and her experience raising a son with autism, Rayna shares how Motherhood extends far beyond biological relationships. In her community, everyone has a role to play as a caregiver, mentor, advocate, and protector. This collective approach to raising children creates powerful networks of support while reinforcing cultural identity and belonging.

Rayna also offers an honest look at the realities of advocating for children with disabilities in tribal and rural communities. She discusses navigating IEPs, IFSPs, private services, and educational systems while working to ensure her son receives the support he needs to thrive. Through these experiences, she demonstrates the leadership skills that so many Mothers develop: persistence, relationship-building, strategic communication, systems navigation, and unwavering advocacy.

The conversation also explores the Tribal Early Learning Fund, Indigenous language revitalization, culturally responsive education, and the critical role of tribal sovereignty in shaping educational opportunities for future generations.

At its heart, this episode is a powerful reminder that Motherhood is not limited to caregiving—it is leadership. Whether advocating for a child, preserving culture, or navigating complex systems, Mothers are often developing and exercising the very skills that define effective leaders.

Key TakeawaysMotherhood Is a Community Responsibility

Indigenous perspectives expand the definition of Motherhood beyond biological ties, emphasizing collective caregiving and shared responsibility for children's wellbeing.

Advocacy Is a Leadership Skill

Navigating educational, healthcare, and support systems requires strategic thinking, persistence, communication, and relationship-building—all core leadership competencies.

Good Is Amazing: Rethinking the Value of Motherhood with Heather A. Campbell

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

samedi 25 avril 2026 • Durée 45:08

In this episode, Heather A. Campbell—CEO, author of Good Is Amazing, and primary caregiver—explores a powerful idea: if we don’t have the language to name the work of Motherhood, we can’t fully value it.

Drawing from her experience leading both at home and in the workplace, Heather reframes Motherhood as high-level management—requiring decision-making under pressure, emotional intelligence, and constant adaptation.

The conversation moves from leadership and career transitions to caregiving, community, and the often invisible skills Mothers develop every day. Together, we explore how language shapes what we recognize as “real work”—and what becomes overlooked.

Because when we start naming Motherhood differently, we start valuing it differently.

TAKEAWAYS:

If we don’t name Motherhood as leadership, we don’t value it
Language shapes recognition—and recognition shapes opportunity
Motherhood develops real, transferable leadership skills
Emotional and financial “runway” matters for growth
The work Mothers do is already complex, strategic, and impactful

Mise en Place Motherhood: The Invisible Prep Behind Everything with Andria Armas Harris

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

jeudi 16 avril 2026 • Durée 29:42

What do professional kitchens and Motherhood have in common? Everything.

In this episode, chef Andria Armas Harris breaks down the unseen systems that keep both worlds running—from written prep lists in commercial kitchens to the endless mental lists Mothers carry every day. The planning, the timing, the anticipation—none of it is accidental, and none of it is easy.

Motherhood is leadership under pressure. It’s constant decision-making, emotional regulation, and showing up—again and again—as your child’s biggest cheerleader. Every hour. Every day. And yet, while Mothers pour out support, they’re met with a workplace that offers far too little in return.

We dig into the reality of returning to work in the culinary and hospitality industries, where demanding schedules and lack of flexibility push many Mothers out—and keep them out. This conversation challenges what we value as “real work” and makes the case for better systems, better support, and a long-overdue recognition:

Mothers aren’t just doing the work behind the scenes—they’re leading it.

Takeaways

Motherhood as a Multifaceted Role
Organization as a chef and a Mother
Support for Mothers in the Paid Workplace
