OM DETTA AVSNITT
Join me in conversation with Jackie Hefter as we chat about parenthood, motherhood, postpartum recovery, the need for a modern day village and her journey of creating "Mama's Maven".
About Jackie and Mama's Maven:
I created Mama’s Maven because I truly needed Mama’s Maven. Before becoming a mother, my world was driven by ambition and creativity. I worked in marketing for global brands like Playboy and Michael Kors, then launched my own social media business and later co-founded a fashion brand with my twin sister that was sold in major retailers like Winners and TJ Maxx.
But motherhood changed everything. When my children were born, it cracked open old wounds and brought buried trauma to the surface. After years of living in survival mode, I was diagnosed with CPTSD and began to understand just how deeply generational trauma had shaped my nervous system.
That realization became a turning point. Instead of chasing perfection or performance, I stepped into a new purpose: breaking cycles, healing my body, and reclaiming my true self — not just for my children, but for the lineage of women who came before me.
Mama’s Maven was born from that transformation. It’s a platform and a community for women who are learning to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, and reconnect with their truth. It’s a space where women can be met exactly where they are, supported by specialists, stories, and shared experience.
