Mothers, not martyrs.
Build a life that has room for you.
Infamous Mothers® is a lifestyle brand and community helping mothers build mothering practices that make room for them as whole women.
Founded by Dr. Sagashus Levingston, our work brings together stories, practical tools, programs and community. We help you care for the people you love while making room for your own money, relationships, rest, pleasure and dreams.
You’ve built something different. You don’t have to figure it all out alone.
You’ve taken steps, made changes and created possibilities. But you may still be winging parts of this new life, looking for examples, or wishing you had people who understood both where you came from and where you are now.
Infamous Mothers brings together stories, tools, programs and community for women living in that new territory, and women making their way into it.
We live whole now.
A whole life is something you practice in the middle of the life you already have. Here’s what we make room for:
Money & Work
Earn, make intentional money decisions, and build work that supports the life you want.
Mothering & Care
Care for the people you love with boundaries, support, and room for your own needs.
Health & Rest
Give your body attention, movement, nourishment, and recovery.
Love & Pleasure
Make space for intimacy, friendship, beauty, play, and the things that make you feel alive.
Identity & Becoming
Own your story, name what you want next, and create a future that reflects the woman you are becoming.

Meet the Author & Founder
I’m Dr. Sagashus Levingston, an author, a mother of six and the founder of Infamous Mothers. I was born and raised in Chicago, and I now live in Madison, Wisconsin.
My work began with questions about mothers society dismisses and what becomes possible when we recognize the whole woman. Those questions grew into research, a manifesto and books that brought our stories into public view.
The women we interviewed also asked for structure, support and community. Our workshops, coaching and other experiences grew from that need: ways to build mothering practices and everyday lives that make room for us, too.
Women making room for themselves.
Meet women in the Infamous Mothers community who are rethinking success, making intentional decisions, and shaping their next chapters.
Tanisha
I dream of being an EGOT and being a full time storyteller for a living.
I was a single mother of 1 attending grad school at a PWI when Dr Sagashus and Infamous Mothers came into my life. I had been running my own small creative services business for about 5 years when we met.
I found my tribe in Infamous Mothers. I found women who reflected my own journey back to me.
Angela
Divorced mother of four, business owner and outside employment.
Infamous Mothers has helped me embrace my power and helped me invision what success would look like for me.
Since my journey with Infamous Mothers I have a clear outlook of my goals. I've learned how to strategize my plans and execute them effectively.
Qiana
We are working to create my brand story and map out my dreams.
When I first came to Infamous Mothers, I had 1 teenager and 1 young adult on his way to college. I was married and needed an outlet to process through possibly becoming a business owner.
Because of my association with Infamous Mothers I have been able to reshape my life for me after a divorce and my children moving out of the house.
