Entrepreneur Spotlight: Dominique Jones of M.A.M.A. – Holding Space for Mothers and Leading with Purpose

At Empower Pathways Coaching, we believe career autonomy doesn’t always come in the form of a corner office—sometimes, it looks like purpose, presence, and people-first leadership.

This month, we’re proud to spotlight Dominique Jones, founder of M.A.M.A. – Mom’s Advocate and Maternal Advisor—a woman dedicated to serving mothers with compassion and purpose. As an agency owner, birth worker, and educator, Dominique and her team provide in-person support in the DMV and virtual services nationwide, empowering families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

She’s more than a doula—she’s a community leader, a champion for birth justice, and a testament to what it means to build a business rooted in impact.

🌱 Building More Than a Business—Building a Movement

Dominique founded M.A.M.A. after becoming a mother herself and witnessing what so many women—especially Black women—experience: feeling unseen, unheard, and under-supported during their birth journeys.

Instead of accepting that as normal, she built something different.

Through childbirth education, birth and postpartum doula care, and lactation support, Dominique and her team create space for mothers to feel fully informed, emotionally supported, and spiritually grounded.

She’s not just providing services—she’s restoring autonomy and voice to the birthing experience.

✊🏾 Leadership as Liberation

What makes Dominique’s work so aligned with the mission of Empower Pathways is that she proves career pathways can be tools for community healing. Her entrepreneurship isn’t just about profit—it’s about purpose, power, and presence.

She’s not waiting for permission. She’s not following a traditional track. She’s leading by doing—and that’s the kind of leadership we love to amplify.

Whether advocating for equitable maternal care, creating opportunities for other birth workers to make an impact, or leading at international, national, and local levels, Dominique demonstrates that entrepreneurship is a form of advocacy—and that forging your own path can open doors for others, too.

💡 Empowerment Looks Like This

At Empower Pathways Coaching, we help individuals reclaim ownership of their careers and define success on their own terms. Dominique embodies that ethos.

She’s proof that when you lead from lived experience, your business becomes more than a brand—it becomes a lifeline.

This month, we honor Dominique not just as a birth worker, but as a visionary—one who reminds us that our work can be personal, powerful, and deeply transformative.
