About Leva
Leva means to lift. Leva was founded to support women on their journeys to be successful in their lives and careers.
Women and Motherhood
Breastfeeding - This is a seriously under-researched area in the medical field. Much of the recommendations you receive are based on other moms’ experiences, which can be helpful but can also be shaming. We offer well-researched, science-backed information to help you through one of the most misunderstood periods of motherhood. We also connect you, live with lactation experts, and provide written and video content from the world’s top specialists in mammary gland development and lactation. You will find meditations focused on breastfeeding or pumping, which has been scientifically proven to promote milk flow.
Mental wellness, fitness, and health - You’ve just gone through a miraculous number of changes to bring your baby into the world, and now you’re healing. Unfortunately, in our culture, everyone asks how junior is doing, and mom gets put on the back burner. This is a stressful time when you’re experiencing hormonal changes, sleep deprivation, physical healing, and psychological challenges. We offer daily meditations, articles, fitness tips, and counseling to support you during this trying time.
Career Advice - Whether you’re a mommy or not, being a woman in the corporate world is anything but easy. Take it from us veterans who have been climbing the corporate ladder for 15 or 20+ years. We’ve spent time understanding the challenges, working to change the narrative, and clearing the path for women coming up after us. We are here to offer advice via written content, video interviews and podcasts, and one-on-one counseling. Let’s face it, sometimes you need individualized support through a specific situation, a rough patch, or in a desperate moment of need. We have been there before, and we are here for you now.
Our Grand Vision
Women need more support all along their life journeys. At Leva, we are only starting by focusing on the early phases of motherhood because it is such a dramatic, tumultuous change that affects every aspect of a woman’s life. Our vision is to expand our content and services to support women throughout their lives. In the future, we will offer fitness classes, including yoga, information for women starting in the workforce post-college, women transitioning through menopause, another very poorly understood or discussed phase, and content to support women as they embark upon retirement. Just because you leave the workplace doesn’t mean you shouldn’t expect a rich and fulfilling life. We’re here to help you make the most of your journey with your family or on your own.
