Muffy Mendoza is a speaker, author, tribe builder and overall awesome communicator. Most notably, Mendoza is known for having cultivated a community of nearly 4,000 African-American moms hungry for social change when she noticed a lack of community among Black mothers in the Pittsburgh region. She created Brown Mamas, a sisterhood that connects moms with resources, advice and, best of all, each other. To further fill the void, Mendoza has created a line of educational products focused on helping Black moms be the best moms too.

Her first book, “The Brown Mama Mindset: A Blueprint for Black Moms on Life, Love & Home”, was featured at the 2018 Essence Festival and is currently sold in various cities across the U.S. Mendoza champions the beauty of Black motherhood 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 a sold-out audience of over 200 moms. When she’s low-key, Mendoza loves reading history books, forcing her kids to watch the most boring documentaries, and snuggling with her best friend and husband.
