Ohanian, a best-selling author, and successful entrepreneur has been open about his position on paternity leave and why he believes is important for companies to give fathers the time to bond with their newborns, and take the role of caregivers along with their partners, without worrying about their payment or position.

"To have those moments and feel that closeness was just spectacular and there are things we have with each other that I'm grateful for," Ohanian told CNN of his bonding time with Olympia after her birth. "Being able to develop that connection to the little one, but then also to my partner, my wife was so valuable as well."

He added:

“My wife had had a really great pregnancy, but then complications during and after the birth meant she was dealing with a lot herself and I had to do everything. I could be the supportive husband and supportive father, and it really put into perspective for me how important creating this family leave policy is for men and women who want to become parents."

Ohanian leads by example, approving a plan of 16 weeks of paid family leave on both Reddit and his new company, Initialized Capital, plus an additional leave plan for women that, like his wife, could have birth complications.

The 35-year-old enjoys spending time with his adorable daughter, and he says that while being a dad is “a lot of fun,” there are mornings “when the coffee helps a lot as a new parent. I'm grateful for it.”

The campaign encourages women of all ages to take the first move in every aspect of their lives, instead of waiting for opportunities to come to them, Williams stated that society has taught women they have to wait for an invitation and always be second, but that’s not true, and she will instill that to baby Olympia.

“I want to teach her that it’s okay to make the first move,” she said on a recent interview with "Good Morning America." And added,

“It’s okay to ask and to say, ‘Listen, I want a chance at being in this play. Put me in, or give me this first opportunity.’”
