Mommy Mundo is a community of communities and has thus been a reason that our active moms form new friendships that last them the rest of their lives, sharing relatable experiences and maybe even trade secrets–especially for those of our mompreneurs and momfluencers.

Rachelle used to be a busy working mom but says the pandemic helped her make up for lost time spent at work which she now spends with her 5-year-old daughter. And Vanessa, mom of 3, says she’s still in the process of figuring it all out.
