About Me
Hello,
I am Louise Song — founder of Momma Chill, mom of two, and someone who knows what it feels like when life changes and it’s time to rewrite who you are and how you show up.
My Journey
After the birth of my daughters, I found myself navigating not only sleepless nights and endless responsibilities, but also the silent weight of postpartum depression. The hardest part wasn’t just the depression itself — it was knowing something wasn’t quite right, that this wasn’t like any other challenge I could charge through. Something fundamental in me was changing. I felt the pressure to bounce back, to re-enter the world as if nothing had changed, while inside I felt the weight of an atmospheric storm— something building, integrating new with old, like a tropical storm pulling both hot and cold winds.
Healing and finding the newest evolution of myself taught me that growth in any season of life isn’t about hustling harder or doing what I always did — carrying a “charging forward” attitude I know so many of us hold. It’s about practicing Radical Acceptance, giving ourselves permission to be seen, supported, and fully human. Because this is the human experience we all share — and there is no shame in it. Learning to embrace the beauty of letting go, and realizing we are all holding far more than we recognize, is what led me to start Momma Chill. A space I know we all need — a place where we can exhale, process, rebuild our confidence, and find our next phase of evolution without the pressure to “bounce back.”
Why Momma Chill
So many resources focus only on the early crisis moments. But what happens when the check-ups end, the dust settles, and the world expects you to be “back to normal”? That’s often when the loneliness and overwhelm hit hardest. Momma Chill exists for that moment — whether you’re a mom months past birth, or anyone navigating a major transition and still trying to find yourself again. Here, you don’t have to pretend. You can come as you are. And we’ll reimagine what the next chapter looks like, together.
My Background
My path has always lived at the intersection of ambition and purpose. As a first-generation daughter of immigrants, I grew up learning how to navigate two worlds — balancing cultures, languages, and expectations while finding my own voice somewhere in between. That experience taught me early on how to move between identities, hold complexity, and build belonging wherever I landed.
I began my career in advocacy as a Victim Advocate with the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office, supporting trauma survivors in Oakland, California. There, I met people during some of the hardest moments of their lives — learning how to meet them where they were, hold space for their pain and grief, and help them reclaim their voice as they moved from Victim to Survivor. Working one-on-one within the complexities of the U.S. criminal justice system shaped how I understand individuality, community, and the messy middle where systems, policy, and humanity intersect.
That lens of navigating between worlds led me to study International Relations and Political Science at UC Davis and later into global development consulting, where I worked on USAID proposals advancing women’s economic empowerment and workforce development in emerging economies. I saw how structural change at scale can transform not just individuals — but entire communities and countries.
When I pursued my MBA at William & Mary, I carried that same sense of purpose with me. As a McGlothlin Leadership Scholar and MBA Class President — while pregnant with my first daughter — I learned that leadership and motherhood don’t cancel each other out; they can, in fact, amplify each other.
After graduation, I joined Amazon, one of the most demanding corporate environments in the world — this time with my second daughter in tow. As a Senior Product Manager, I led billion-dollar customer strategies and learned firsthand both the resilience and the cost of being a mom in spaces that expect you to show up at full speed.
Each chapter — advocacy, development, leadership, corporate innovation, and motherhood — gave me new tools and deeper perspective. Together, they shaped my vision for Momma Chill: a space where mothers don’t just survive postpartum, but find ways to heal, thrive, and reimagine what’s possible — for themselves, their families, and the systems around them. And should you find yourself — as a human being — in the midst of change or transition, please know this space is for you too. Here, we honor all forms of evolution — and the courage it takes to soften, rebuild, and rise again.
Our Vision for Momma Chill
Momma Chill is more than coaching. It’s an ecosystem designed to support moms — especially in the months and years beyond birth, when the world assumes you’re “back to normal” but your reality is still shifting.
Today, that looks like one-on-one coaching and intimate group sessions. Looking ahead, Momma Chill will expand into postpartum retreats, workplace partnerships, intensive outpatient mental health programs, and lifestyle offerings that honor the full spectrum of motherhood — from personal healing to professional re-entry.
Our vision is to create a culture where mothers are supported not just in the crisis moments, but in the long, complex journey of rediscovering themselves.
This isn’t just my story. It’s the beginning of something bigger — an ecosystem of honesty, healing, and sustainable growth.
And together, we can reimagine what the next chapter looks like.
