Maurice connects with corporate advisor, researcher, and founder of ELIXR, Jess Riggenberg. And what blew him away was learning about the ‘Motherhood Tax’.

Jess shares her incredible journey of leaving a thriving biotech career to because she realized she was chasing someone else’s version of success. That realization sparked changes and deep desire to address systemic challenges faced by women and mothers in the workplace.

Her story resonates deeply with women striving to pursue their dreams but held back by various obstacles. The roles women play at home and in the workplace are complex and not always discussed.

Jess became passionate about helping women thrive as whole individuals. She founded ELIXR, a groundbreaking initiative that blends science-backed frameworks, matrescence research, and self-coaching tools to empower women to re-engage and flourish professionally.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who believes in supporting women in achieving their full potential—whether you're a mom, a woman chasing your dreams, or an ally cheering from the sidelines!
