Reshma Saujani: Creating Innovative & Impact-Driven Nonprofits

In this episode of Amplify Her Foundation's If She Can Make It Here podcast, host Marti Speranza Wong sits down with Reshma Saujani for a candid conversation on her work and career as a tireless champion for women and girls. Saujani is the Founder of Girls Who Code and the Founder & CEO of Moms First. Their conversation touches on the roots of her leadership, the systems that hold women back, and the ways she wants to see America’s culture and policies shift to make life better for working mothers.

Her New York Times bestselling book, Brave, Not Perfect, challenged women to move beyond perfectionism and lead with courage. During the pandemic, her experience as a working mother exposed the cracks in America’s care system, prompting her to found Moms First, a national movement advocating for paid leave and affordable, accessible child care.
