You can fit self-care into your daily routine
It doesn’t have to be perfect to be effective.
- Prioritize your needs FOR your family NOT instead of your family.
- Get out of the mom-guilt mindset that keeps you from enjoying restorative self-care.
- Keep your body and mind active.
- Find the time and energy, with lots of support, to keep learning and grow personally and professionally.
- Upgrade how you show up and feel in your career.

Our Plans
Past Boxes
Why Choose Us?
Our monthly membership is the fraction of the cost of most expert workshops, courses, or group programs focused on health and personal development. These programs are often taught by people who haven’t navigated professional or personal growth as a hands-on, busy parent.
If you have a therapist or coach you work with, this will complement the investment. We’ll help you make that time for personal investment. For less than the cost of a mani-pedi each month, get the type of expert advice, resources and live support, in a way that works for real life as a beyond busy mom.
Meet Our Founder
Leslie Forde
Leslie developed the Mom’s Hierarchy of Needs framework and has used research to inform growth and innovation strategy for over 20 years. Most recently, she held leadership positions at children’s mental health start-up, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Care.com and CSpace.
And for the past decade, she’s focused on media, research and technology for the childcare, eldercare, mental health, and education sectors.
She’s a frequent speaker and consultant to organizations on how to retain and support parents, caregivers, and people of color, including HubSpot, Merck, Scholastic and the Barr Foundation.
Her writing about wellbeing, equity and the future of work has appeared in The Washington Post, Slate, Parents Magazine, TLNT, Directorship and her website, Mom’s Hierarchy of Needs among other publications.
She’s been quoted in the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, CNN, National Geographic, Fast Company, US News & World Report, SHRM, and many other outlets.
What are Moms Saying?
"I have been a member of Leslie’s community for over a year. Her warm, supportive approach combined with research-based content has given me tools to grow as a professional working mom and helped me better manage my time and responsibilities to create time for passions so that I can thrive. She is a thoughtful listener who has cultivated a dynamic community for group introspection and knowledge sharing that has been transformative for me. Her curated gift boxes full of beautifully scented products (made by lesser known women and minority organizations) are gentle reminders of the benefits of prioritizing a few minutes for myself each day."
