WhatsUpMoms

In 2013, she decided to embark on a more ambitious project along with her friends, Meg Resnikoff, Connie Kin, and Brooke Mahan. The partners co-founded the channel ‘WhatsUpMoms’. The inspiration for the channel came when Elle herself was trying to research about parenthood but couldn’t find any professional videos. It was then that she decided to do it herself. However, the weekly videos stopped in 2014 owing to Kin’s death during childbirth. However, the remaining founders were encouraged to go ahead and produce videos on parenting. Toward the end of 2014, the channel had gone back to producing regular videos and had a loyal fan base.
