On May 12-15th, we hosted our first (and likely annual) Career, Care, Connection Summit, and it blew our expectations out of the water! What started as a simple idea during a January meetup, turned into an incredible, community co-created experience, bringing together moms in all stages, authors, experts, and partners across the country (and globe!)

Check out some key stats below, including:

✨ 2800 individual session sign ups

✨ 50+ speakers across 20+ sessions

✨ Over $10K raised in partner sponsorships

✨ Over $6K contributed back to community partners

If you missed the summit in May, but would like to watch the summit sessions, you can purchase an all-access pass to view. Use code “FRIEND” for $10 off (making the pass only $37).
