C Extra Trading Co.,Ltd.In today’s Mom Crush interview, we had a chance to sit down with Michelle Kennedy EasternHoneys gratis app, the founder of Peanut, the matchmaking app that helps moms connect with other moms.
After becoming a first time mom herself, Michelle saw a need in the market to connect new moms in a modern way. Her goal was to create a platform where moms could easily find other like-minded women to create real-life connections and to bond over their new, monumental life changes. So brought her idea to life and has since been overwhelmed by how quickly Peanut exploded. With over 1MM members in less than two years, clearly she was onto something!
We’re so impressed by your success with Peanut – congrats! In just 2 years over 1 million moms have joined the network, which goes to show how needed this resource was! How did the idea originally come about?
When I first got the idea for Peanut, I had recently become a mum myself and really needed some mum friends. I looked at the tools that were available to me and really felt like they didn’t fit modern motherhood. The tech felt very outdated and the human connection just wasn’t there. Women deserved and needed a new way to form social ties and connections. We never thought it was going to be as successful as it has been, but to me, that just demonstrates the need and shows how overdue a platform like Peanut was.
