With Gratitude

The Group Leader Training in Great Barrington was an amazing experience. I am filled with gratitude for the Simplicity Parenting Team who has diligently and lovingly compiled a beautiful, thoughtful and comprehensive training program. I am in awe of my co-learners, and so grateful for their focus and honesty and good humor throughout our three days together. I look forward to hearing about the remarkable groups they will surely form in their communities!

And I am so grateful to my support system at home- my sweet husband who encouraged me to follow this dream, his parents who were so willing to help care for our children while I was away, and a group of very special moms in my life who have been inspiring and challenging me for the past year. Brought together by Hannah, our conversations center around the ways we nourish our bodies, but our talks always expand to shine new light on many of the issues we face as women. With the help of these remarkable women, I have built tremendous confidence, learned the value of self-care, and developed a greater sense of my purpose. I am excited to step onto a new path, to begin supporting Rhode Island families who want to slow down and find joyful moments, and as I take these first steps, I am deeply held by the love and support of those around me.
