You know you

NEED A VILLAGE

It’s time to build one.

Imagine A Place:

Where you can share your real story- you know, the one that currently only exists behind closed doors- and where you will be seen, understood, loved & accepted, and also pushed (gently) to be better.
Where your life fits into your faith, not the other way around.
Where you can show up as you ARE, not as others want you to be.
Where people actually do life together (real life!) not just talk about it
Where you get to become the person God created you to be- a warrior, a champion, a daughter of the King

Deep down you know

IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD

But you also know you want some level of control over who “lives” there. You’ve been told so many times to “do life in community,” but you’ve never been told HOW to find this elusive thing called community. That’s where we differ. We want to show you step-by-step how to show up authentically and create the community you desire for yourself and your family. It’s kinda like building a town, you have to find your perfect site, a source of water, create the infrastructure and then invite others to contribute.

01. Site

To get where you’re going, you need to know where you are. We will help you,

02. Water Source

God is our Living Water, but we understand what happens sometimes when life and beliefs collide. We will hold space for you to

Discover who you are- your “bent,” your strengths, love language, spiritual gifts- How God made you to think and interact, and how you fit into His plans and the world around you.
Learn to set boundaries, and practice your responses when people cross them.
Identify your triggers and execute strategies to reduce them

03. INFRASTRUCTURE

The foundation for your Village is you. We will encourage you to

Discover who you are- your “bent,” your strengths, love language, spiritual gifts- How God made you to think and interact, and how you fit into His plans and the world around you.
Learn to set boundaries, and practice your responses when people cross them.
Identify your triggers and execute strategies to reduce them

04. Contribution

We are not meant to do life alone, and in order to successfully interact with others in a sustainable community, we want to teach you to

Observe and become a student of your children, and others around you
Create the community you’ve always longed for, instead of just waiting for it to happen and being constantly disappointed when it doesn’t
Discern what the people in your current inner circle add and subtract from you, and who you might need to add to round out your Village.

Hi! I'm Jess,

Once upon a time, I was like you: surviving, but isolated and lonely, numbing out on Netflix and chocolate. Without a strong sense of community or resources, I was not doing a great job of parenting my children or taking care of myself. Sick of hearing people talk about doing life together, I decided to figure out how to actually BE in community.

Fast forward a few years and many adventures and hard lessons. I have gone from lonely, to knowing that no matter what, I have people who love and support me; from overlooked, to truly seen, and from not having any boundaries, to knowing how and when to stand up for myself and my children. During this journey I have gained certification in Mental Health Coaching from the AACC, and realized that I had actually been creating and impacting communities around me for years. Through my work in dog training, teaching ESL, and interior design based on human psychology, as well as from the school of hard knocks, I have picked up strategies and techniques that I now use to help you on your own solo-motherhood journey.

I BELIEVE IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD, AND I WANT TO HELP YOU BUILD THAT VILLAGE!

Community Building Workshops

Learn step by step how to build your Village, both virtually and
in-person. Live Zoom sessions will give you opportunity to practice your new skills, and rotating accountability partners will keep you on track.

Mastermind your Challenges

We are all students; we are all teachers. Brainstorm with your peers how to navigate the issues keeping you stuck, and learn from up to 9 other mamas how they tackle solo-motherhood and still manage to keep their kids alive.

Dive Deeper with 1:1 sessions

Each month you can schedule a 1:1 session with me, where I will hold space for you, listen to you vent, mentor you through specific challenges, and hopefully make you laugh at yourself (or me) just a little!

Special Topics

Is there something you’re dying to know more about but just don’t have the time to look into it?

It could be anything from looking deeper into the Enneagram to How to cook over an open fire, there is no topic off limits!

Mounting Excitement

“I want to do this for me. You spoke about a lot of the things I’ve been praying about for years!”

-R, Solo mom of 5

“Sign me up! I’ve never been so lonely in my life, and nobody else understands.”

-M, Solo mom of 4

“It means the world to me to have someone listening that gets it. You’re not condemning my marriage or telling me I have to stay in it.”

-H, Solo mom of 4

As Seen On:

You no longer have to feel lonely in a crowded room!

"I’ve had a few people who listen and support me, but Jess is the first person who understands, supports, and is an always current source of fully applicable Biblical encouragement and dialogue. Thank you!!"

Heather D.

"Jess reached out to me and made me feel so welcome!! She took the time to listen and validate me and offer encouragement."

Erica M.

"Jess didn’t know at the time, but I was feeling very lonely and unloved and overwhelmed. She sought me out and reached out to me. She continues to try to include each of us and I appreciate that so much."

Heather T.

"Jessica, God bless you for having a big heart, we have never met physically, but even with continents between us, you reached out, when I was at my lowest, and made me feel loved and validated."

Faith M.
