Summary
Details

No One Ever Told Me was co-created by two mamas (and best friends) Jordana Handler and Lani Lipson. They connected in 2015 when they were both pregnant with their first babies. As they navigated the wild world of postpartum, they realized there are so many things no one tells you about being a new mom. Having each other to share the experience in an honest and vulnerable way made the fourth trimester a lot easier to survive. They wanted to bring that support outside of their friendship, so they created a platform for moms to share their truths. In 2018, they interviewed 100 moms and began sharing their stories anonymously on Instagram.

They spoke to so many parents who lacked a support system. Back in the day, we had villages where mothers could count on each other for a helping hand. We don't live like that anymore. Now we are expected to do everything on our own, which isn't healthy or sustainable. Lani & Jordana learned that all moms crave the kind of support that you only get from parent to parent. So, they invite you to help us build a village that is strong and inclusive-no bullshit or judgments allowed. Let's share our valuable experiences and best-kept secrets. Let's lift each other up in a world that often seems bent on dragging women and mothers down. Let's change the way we talk about motherhood, about community, and about maternal mental health.
