The Story of the I Am Mom Summit: Celebrating Moms, Storytelling, and Shared Strength
When the I Am Mom Summit first launched in 2018, it was born from one mom’s honest moment of exhaustion—and a quiet Instagram post that said, “You’re not alone.” Founder Jamie Taylor, feeling depleted and under-supported, created a space where moms could pause, be seen, and feel inspired again Kizik.
Over the years, the Summit has grown into a powerful, one-of-a-kind gathering—part TED-style talks, part emotional safe space—built for moms, by moms. Jamie's vision resonated: the first summit drew over 10,000 registrants. Since then, many attendees say the Summit didn’t just deliver tools—it reminded them of who they are Kizik.
