Become a Founding Nana

A free, 6-week experience for soon-to-be grandmothers who want to feel confident, supportive, and deeply connected — without overstepping or second-guessing. Starts May 1, 2026.

Free • All content available immediately • Gentle, self-paced experience

A quick word before you join

Becoming a grandmother is a meaningful transition.

You may be feeling excited… and unsure.
You may want to be helpful… but not intrusive.
You may be wondering what your daughter actually needs from you now.

This experience was created to support you in that space — gently, thoughtfully, and without judgment.

What this pilot is (and isn’t)

This is not a perfect, polished course.

This is a thoughtful, guided experience you’re invited to be part of as it takes shape.

Inside, you’ll find:

  • Space to reflect on the kind of Nana you want to be

  • Guidance for supporting your daughter with empathy and respect

  • A calm, grounded approach to navigating change in modern parenting

  • Encouragement to trust yourself — without pressure to get it “right”

As a Founding Nana, your presence and reflections help shape what this becomes

How it works

  • You’ll receive access to all course materials as soon as you join

  • You can move through everything at your own pace

  • A gentle 6-week rhythm is available if you’d like structure

  • An optional live gathering will be offered midway through the pilot

  • You’ll be invited (but never required) to share feedback

There’s no falling behind.
There’s no “right” way to participate.

Pilot begins May 1, 2026

A final note…

You don’t need to be perfect to be a meaningful, trusted presence in your family.

You’re already bringing care and intention to this moment — this is simply a place to support you as you grow into what’s next.

I’d be honored to have you join us.
