The Real Cost of Motherhood with Elaine Welteroth

Networth and Chill with Your Rich BFF · 2025-05-07

On this week’s episode of Networth and Chill, I’m sitting down with Elaine Welteroth. The former Teen Vogue Editor-in-Chief and Project Runway judge pulls back the curtain on her groundbreaking venture, birthFUND, a nonprofit dedicated to helping reduce the maternal mortality rate in the United States. Elaine shares how personal experiences led her to create birthFUND and why giving birth in this country can be so darn expensive! Plus, she lets us know what’s next for her and why birthFUND is at the heart of her mission.
