Workplaces were not built for working mothers.
We’re changing that.
The ELIXR origin story
ELIXR was founded on the belief that workplaces must evolve to support women and working mothers—not just through policies, but through cultural shifts that empower them to thrive.
After years in leadership roles within a Fortune 500 company, Jess Ringgenberg experienced firsthand the systemic barriers women and mothers face at work. She left corporate life to focus on closing these gaps, blending science-backed frameworks with research in neuroscience, positive psychology, and matrescence—the transformational identity shift into motherhood.
Today, ELIXR partners with organizations to redefine success for working mothers. Our approach integrates data-driven strategies, leadership coaching, and workplace culture transformation to drive retention, engagement, and career advancement for women at every stage.
Jess is a corporate advisor, researcher, and a passionate advocate for women’s workplace equity. She lives in Dallas, TX, with her husband and two boys, building a life centered on being present, challenging traditional expectations, and creating lasting change.
