Purposeful Parenting Retreat

Purposeful Parent Bootcamp

Let’s find your inner woman, cast aside for other’s needs no longer. Let’s coax her out, nurture and inspire her spirit, and empower her to be exactly the mom she longs to be. It’s absolutely possible — I’ll guide your journey.

“Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.”

— Nora Ephron

There’s no disputing that raising kids with ADHD and/or autism is unpredictable, frustrating, overwhelming, emotional, demanding, challenging, intense, and exhausting.

Few deserve respite and self-care more than moms of neurodivergent kids. You deserve the time and space to focus on your own health and wellbeing. You deserve a weekend to relax and recharge. You deserve to be happy.

That’s what my retreats are all about — YOU!

You want to help your struggling child, but you also want a more patient, calm, peaceful, cooperative, purposeful, fulfilling, and joyful parenthood. Right?

You have more challenges than most, that’s for sure. But, you’re 100% capable of thriving as a mom (and as a person). You’ll leave these retreats empowered with the tools, and the mindset, to craft the parenthood you want.

And you’ll achieve the added bonus of being the best parent you can be, for your child, too.

What if you could spend a long weekend relaxing… yet emerge recharged, inspired, and empowered to create a more patient, calm, peaceful, cooperative, purposeful, and joyful parenthood for yourself?

Sounds too good to be true, but it’s totally possible! That’s exactly what you’ll achieve at the Purposeful Parent Bootcamp — respite and recalibration.

I felt so nourished after the Bootcamp. I learned from Penny and the other moms and received encouragement for the day-to-day challenges of raising our special kids. There was a perceptible feeling of understanding, awareness, and a sense of togetherness from everyone! I left with a renewed sense of what kind of parent I want be, and need to be.
