Workplaces were not built for caregivers and working mothers.
We’re changing that.
The ELIXR origin story
ELIXR was founded on a simple belief: workplaces must evolve to support caregivers and working mothers—not just through policies, but through cultural shifts that allow them to thrive.
I started ELIXR in the margins of my own life—on the back of kids’ menus and voice notes, during nap time, in carpool lines, and amid the messy middle of raising two little boys while climbing the corporate ladder.
What I knew then was this: something had to change.
While leading inside a Fortune 500 company, I saw how women were celebrated for juggling it all silently—praised for pushing through rather than supported to lead in ways that honored both their ambition and their caregiving lives. When I became a mother myself, I felt the full weight of that disconnect. Most workplaces weren’t built for this version of us.
So, I turned that pain point into a structured solution.
Those early voice notes became a national research study—The Science of Modern Motherhood™—conducted in partnership with sociologists, researchers, corporate leaders, and working moms. Together, we named what had been invisible for too long and built a roadmap to do better.
Today, through ELIXR, we help companies build CareConscious™ cultures—workplaces that lead with empathy, backed by data.
We partner with organizations to:
→ Understand their workforce through the lens of caregiving and identity
→ Train leaders to manage without bias or outdated assumptions
→ Build internal systems and communities that actually support the humans who keep business running
This work isn’t just about working mothers anymore.
It’s about designing workplaces that reflect the realities of life, care, and leadership.
Because when we support the people who carry the most—we change what’s possible for everyone.
I live in Dallas with my husband and our two boys.
ELIXR is my life’s work—rooted in lived experience, shaped by science, and driven by a vision that refuses to settle for systems that weren’t built for us.
We’re not just fixing a broken model.
We’re building a better one.
