Mothers on Instagram and TikTok have taken over the platforms, providing other moms encouragement and advice on all things motherhood.
For Mother’s Day, here is a list of mom influencers that you should be following.
They Call Me Mama Bennett.
Destiny Bennett is a wife and mother of three young boys under 10. She is a major proponent of “conscious parenting,” a parenting style that inspires parents to set aside their egos when conflicts with their children arise. Instead, parents can use calming techniques, thus allowing a child to become more self-aware and self-expressive, and to have self-belief.
Bennett is a full-time blogger and content creator, with 168k followers on Instagram. She is also a part-time editorial motherhood photographer, as her bio reads, and the author of the book Revised Not Repeated: A Brown Mom’s Guide to Breaking Generational Curses in Parenting.
