Each month we like to shine a spotlight on moms who inspire us. From entrepreneurs to creatives, these women are doing cool things—and reminding us that motherhood has many styles.Â

I’ve been a fan of Baked by Melissa for years, but lately I’ve discovered a whole new side of Melissa Ben-Ishay that I’m even more excited about. Beyond being a creative and innovative baker, she’s also a talented cook, sharing simple, fresh, and nourishing recipes made with accessible ingredients and unexpected flavors. She went viral on TikTok with her Green Goddess Salad and has been inspiring us with healthy, delicious ideas ever since. I recently bought her cookbook for myself—after gifting it to two salad-loving friends! I love how she encourages healthy eating while still celebrating the joy of treating yourself. Plus, she comes across as such a fun, down-to-earth mom—someone who’s clearly inspiring her two daughters, and the rest of us too.
