MEET JULIE PERNIKOFF
Curiosity brought me here. Community is what I hope to build.
I’m Julie Pernikoff, host and founder of Into Motherhood - a place for ideas, questions, resources, and the conversations that help women feel more informed and less alone.
Julie’s story
Before launching Into Motherhood, I spent ten years teaching in Jewish and public schools and later moved into social work. I have always been curious, but becoming a mom deepened my appreciation for seeking information, asking questions, and knowing where to turn.
I created Into Motherhood to make useful experts, experiences, and community resources easier for Jewish women to discover. We need information, but most of all, we need each other - not only to raise our children, but to raise ourselves through every age and stage.
