MUFFY MENDOZA

Muffy Mendoza is the founder, creative and business woman behind Brown Mamas, a sisterhood that connects thousands of moms with resources, advice and, best of all, each other.  Muffy has created a line of educational books and products focused on helping Black moms be the best moms.  Her first book, The Brown Mama Mindset: A Blueprint for Black Moms on Life, Love & Home, was featured at the Essence Festival and is currently sold in various cities across the U.S.  Muffy champions the beauty and complexities of the black mothering experience everywhere she goes, even on the TEDx stage.  She received a standing ovation at the inaugural TEDx Strip District after giving a compelling depiction of modern day Black motherhood.  From the TEDx stage she went on to create a stage for other Black moms.  That same year she debuted the first annual Brown Mama Monologues showcase to an audience of over 200. To date, The Brown Mama Monologues is hosted in two cities: Pittsburgh & the DC Metro region with the hopes of becoming a multi-city showcase. To add to the list Muffy was nominated for the prestigious Iris Award in 2018 for the outstanding work she’s done as a writer, influencer and content creator on BrownMamas.com.  

When she’s low-key, Muffy loves reading African history books, forcing her kids to watch the most boring documentaries and snuggling with her number one supporter and husband Mr. Mack Mendoza. You can learn more about Muffy at brownmamas.com.
