Honoring #AllTheMoms this Mother’s Day

As a mother myself, I’m amazed by all the different mamas that share their stories on YouTube. They help us understand how single moms, married moms, working moms, stay-at-home moms, partner moms, #AllTheMoms live their lives. They show us what it means to be a parent today – the joys, the challenges, the moments that make you laugh, sometimes wince and sometimes cry (in the best sort of way).

There are entrepreneurs like Elle, Brooke and Meg of WhatsUpMoms, comedians like Glozell, beauty experts like Louise Pentland, and vloggers that live in every corner of the world. From Nikki Perkins in Australia to Domo and Crissy and Flavia Calina in Brazil, moms of all backgrounds use YouTube to share their reality in ways that are unique to them and the kids they’re raising.

I’m in awe of how this community of moms continues to grow and support one another. Between 2015 and 2016, views of mother-related content grew 81 percent. Most importantly, videos related to education and tips for moms grew a staggering 98 percent over this same amount of time. To help celebrate this community of motherhood, we want to send a Mother’s Day thank you to #AllTheMoms out there who create, watch, learn and use their voices to support mothers around the globe:



To all the moms who get real about breastfeeding, fostering self-esteem, sending a child off to college, feeling glamorous and not-so-glamorous, or just getting groceries: thank you for your honesty. Wherever you come from and whatever your story, we are so thankful you share it with us.

Here’s what they had to say:
