MomFirst Award

Full Circle Award

Each year the MomFirst Award will be given to a woman who started something new when, in her own role as a Mother, she saw a need and filled it… first as a Mom at home, and then in the marketplace.

Through her ingenuity, commitment and entrepreneurial perseverance this woman developed and took to market something that has made a difference in the lives of so many others.

We recognize her business success as we remember how it started… she was a Mom, first!


2011

Heidi MurkoffHeidi Murkoff, author of What to Expect When You’re Expecting, was awarded the 2nd Annual MomFirst Award.

At the helm of the What to Expect (WTE) franchise, Heidi Murkoff is the creator of the world’s most popular and trusted pregnancy and parenting brand. WTE delivers empowering information — along with support and reassurance — to millions of expectant and new parents. Its mission: to help every parent know what to expect, every step of the way. The brand includes the What to Expect series of books, which have sold over 40 million copies worldwide and are published in more than 30 languages; their online companion, WhatToExpect.com; and the WTE Pregnancy Tracker iPhone app — now ranked #1 by Apple in the health category. She’s also the co-founder of the What to Expect Foundation, a nonprofit organization that helps low-income families have healthy pregnancies, deliveries, and babies. She lives with her husband, Erik, and their two children, Emma and Wyatt, in Southern California.

2010

Nadine Vogel, Springboard Consulting, was awarded the inaugural MomFirst Award
Nadine’s firm, Springboard Consulting, collaborates with multinational corporations, Federal governments and national agencies on initiatives to successfully mainstream disability in the workforce, workplace and marketplace. Her work with brands to successfully market their products and services to this community — now the largest minority market in the United States — is worthy of our admiration, respect, and commendation.

Prior to founding Springboard, Nadine held a variety of both corporate and non-profit executive positions. But, when she became a mother of two special needs daughters, her love and experience as a Mom ignited a new passion in her that has now fueled important change in many organizations. The marketing-to-moms community is enlightened and inspired by her work and the world is a better place because of her remarkable efforts.

We tally up the responses and honor the speaker who Takes the Cake with a beautiful handmade glass cake plate from the talented glass blowers at Simon Pearce in Vermont.
