THE ORGANIZATIONS INVESTING IN MOTHERS TODAY ARE SHAPING THE FUTURE OF LEADERSHIP.

Two women are sitting at a high table in a modern café, facing each other. The woman on the left has long dark hair, tan skin, and is wearing a sleeveless black top and pants, holding a paper cup. The woman on the right has long brown hair, light skin, glasses, a light blue turtleneck sweater, and a beige skirt. They are engaged in conversation with cups on the table and glasses on the chairs.

WHY THIS WORK MATTERS

What happens to women in motherhood reshapes how they lead, build, and move through the world.

Yet most institutions lack the language, frameworks, and support systems to recognize that transformation. Matrescence gives us language for this shift.

Once we understand motherhood as an evolution in identity and leadership, everything changes.

House of Maya partners with organizations investing in the future of maternal leadership.

THE LEADERSHIP GAP

Most leadership and workplace models were not designed with the transformation of motherhood in mind.

67%

of mothers have never heard the word matrescence. Yet millions of women move through one of the most significant transformations of adult life without language for what they are experiencing.

455,000+

women left the workforce between January and August 2025, not because ambition disappeared, but because existing systems were not built to support the realities of modern motherhood.

$14.2 billion

is the annual economic cost of untreated maternal mental health conditions in the U.S., reflecting the scale of what remains unsupported across modern systems.
