As part of the Summit, we participated in a dynamic panel discussion alongside Mónica Gil, CMO of NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises, exploring the pivotal role Latinos play in shaping the sports economy and the opportunities ahead for brands, media, leagues, and communities to engage this vibrant audience authentically.

Our senior expert, Fadesola A., recently spoke with Forbes about the link between maternal health and economic mobility. The case is clear that addressing these challenges will create thriving motherhoods and stronger economies. Check out the article: https://lnkd.in/dRPtK7MW Read our latest research on Black maternal health: https://lnkd.in/eMEK5_Ha
A recent Forbes article by Jasmine Browley, M.A. highlights findings from McKinsey’s research on Black maternal health, underscoring how job loss can have cascading effects on women’s health and economic outcomes. As I’ve said before, the gold standard for pregnancy should not be survival—it should be thriving. And when we talk about thriving, we must connect the dots between maternal health and economic mobility. In this article, I explain: “Job loss directly translates into reduced income and potentially a loss of health insurance. That makes it harder for women to afford prenatal and postpartum care, medications, and services for conditions like gestational diabetes or hypertension—things that disproportionately impact Black women.” The stakes are high. Without intervention, mothers lose an average of 10 healthy days per year (this number is 14-15 days for black mothers) for the rest of their lives due to childbirth-related conditions. This results in time out of the workforce. Time not pouring into our families and communities. Time unable to pursue economic mobility. But the opportunity for change is equally profound. McKinsey’s research estimates that closing the Black maternal health gap could: ✅ Add $25 billion to the U.S. economy annually ✅ Save $385 billion in healthcare costs Supporting maternal health isn’t just a moral imperative; it’s an economic one. Let’s work together to create a future where no mother has to choose between her health and her livelihood.

In the U.S., the number of deaths from pregnancy-related complications are falling for virtually every group except for Black women. This trend extends to maternal morbidity. In 2025 alone, debilitating maternal-health conditions could result in the loss of 350,000 healthy life years for Black women giving birth. Closing gaps in maternal health for Black women is about saving lives, strengthening communities, and advancing economic opportunity and mobility. Our latest report, done in collaboration with our McKinsey Health Institute, examines the health and economic opportunities of closing health gaps for Black women and the actions cross-sector stakeholders can take to accelerate progress.
