Nourishing Your Future Self:
Rediscover Who You are Beyond Being a Mom
A 4-Session discussion group for moms who are empty nesters
When your kids leave home, you are left with what is commonly referred to as an empty nest. It can be a time of intense feelings ranging from grief and loss to joy and pride. You may feel your most important job is finished, and are wondering, “What’s next for me?”
Ready to nourish your future self? This transformative 4-session workshop is designed for mothers navigating the empty nest transition. Through creative activities, reflective journaling, meaningful group discussions, and lessons learned in the kitchen, you’ll explore your evolving role as a parent, new identity, and uncover new purpose, as your children become independent adults.

MEET SARA
I’m an educator who has worn many hats throughout my career. What remains constant, I care about creativity, relationships, and supporting others. My journey has taken me from counseling psychology and parenting education (with a Master’s in Education and graduate certificate in parenting education) to running my own business, Moving Through Parenthood.
After years of teaching parents, I followed another passion, baking, and started Sara Ran Away with the Spoon. It began as a home bakery and evolved into teaching teens to bake.
Through these experiences, I discovered the kitchen is a place for joy and learning. Whether it’s a teen gaining confidence while making their first cake, or a woman facing a major life transition, baking teaches us that the best things require time, care, and the courage to try again when something doesn’t turn out as planned.
Today, I focus on helping women find their purpose, passion, and possibility as they face life’s sweet transitions. You could call me a Sweet Transitions Educator who still loves to bake.
When I’m not in the kitchen or working with clients, you’ll find me outdoors—swimming, biking, walking, or cross-country skiing, or curled up with a good book (fiction or cookbooks!). I’m a mom of two grown children and share my days with my husband and our rescue dog, Phoebe.
