Build Your Village: A 4-Week Challenge

---

We are all told that "it takes a village," and then we look around and go, "where is it?"

I learned that if your village isn't there, you need to build it. It takes actual effort, but it is so worth it when I'm able to call up a mom friend to watch our babies while I cook, or I know I have someone I can call with my feelings about daycare, or I have a friend who will hold me accountable to actually get my butt outside on a walk. 

Is this what you're missing?

Having a village really helps you feel like you have it all. You suddenly get more companionship, more lightheartedness, more personal time, more things done, and more time in general. You feel supported and you know you are loved outside of your mom-duties. You celebrate each other's highs and lows together, watch as your children grow side-by-side, and experiment with parenting styles, judgement-free. But again, it doesn't happen by accident (most of the time). 

My first mom friend I made on purpose, (shout out, Kendall!) was someone who was sitting in the same coffee shop as me, with a small-baby-sized stroller. I asked to sit next to her, we started talking about babies and travel, and the rest is history. 

 Making new friends as a mom can feel weird. How do you even start? What if it’s awkward? What if you like them but they don’t like you back? What if you’re just too tired?

This challenge is here to help. It’s simple, low-pressure, and actually doable.

Over four weeks, I’ll guide you through one small action each week to help you connect with other moms who get it. You’ll walk away with more confidence, some new connections, and a repeatable way to build your village—so you’re not doing this alone.

Here’s how it works:

• Week 1: Meet people. (yup, that easy - don't worry, I'll help you through the "but how?")
   
• Week 2: Connect with some of those people. (Could be as simple as a text)
   
• Week 3: Spend time with some of those that you connected with. (Even a 15 minute walk counts)
   
• Week 4: Spend time again with one of those people (now we are building a foundation!)
   

You don’t have to meet your new best friend this month (but..like....you could.) What's for sure is that you will get more comfortable putting yourself out there and building meaningful connections—and that’s a skill worth building.

• Weekly check in reminders and questions to guide you towards putting yourself out there
• Email availability - this is your open invitation to email me personally with any questions regarding the challenge 
• Private Facebook Group - why not make it easy on yourself and meet some other folks with the same goals? (We cannot guarantee proximity, but at least you know other's who are on the same mission!)

 Putting yourself out there isn’t just about showing up. It’s also about calming the voice in your head that says:

“What if I’m awkward?”
“What if they don’t like me?”
“What if getting out the door with my baby is an actual disaster?”
 

If you’re feeling that… you’re not alone. That’s why I’m offering a coaching upgrade alongside the free challenge.

When you join the paid version, you’ll get four weekly small-group calls where we talk about the real stuff—your nerves, your fears, your “ugh I don’t wanna go” moments. I’ll help you move through it all with more self-trust and less spiraling.

This isn’t about forcing yourself to be more social. It’s about feeling supported enough to actually take the steps you want to take.

$50. (That's less than a McDonald's meal for three, these days!)

Two time options. (Don't let scheduling get in the way of making friends.)

Four weeks of support that makes a difference.

Calls will be scheduled in EST, and you will can choose to attend either the Sunday morning option, or the Thursday evening option (after bedtime). As always, reach out to me with any questions to info@FindyourCadence.ca
