I grew up as a city girl with outdoor roots. I remember taking weekly nature walks with my mother in the vast city parks of Oakland California. My mother also raised me a single mother most of my life until share married my step father who is still in my life to this day. Prior to my step-father coming along I watched my mom work way harder than she should have had to just to give me moments like the opportunity we’ve created at Single Moms Planet for moms to explore the great outdoors with their children. Moments that every parent should be able to expereince.

Roughly 30% of households led by single mothers are subsisting under the poverty line, making single mothers and their children one of the most disadvantaged groups in the country

My mom and I were lucky enough to overcome the odds. But I never forgot what my mother sacrificed to give me the opportunities I have had. And I always knew we as a society could do so much better if single moms were given the resources to reach their full potential.

That’s why I founded Single Moms Planet along with co-founder Cole Patterson back in 2013 as a platform to help single moms help themselves. We do that by giving single moms the financial literacy education, networking opportunities, and affordable childcare they need to build their own thriving business or career. But just as importantly, we aim to provide opportunities for single moms to strengthen their relationship with their kids through meaningful bonding experiences and adventure.

That’s why since 2017, Single Moms Planet has hosted a 3-day camping retreat for moms and their kids every summer at beautiful Catalina Island’s Camp Emerald Bay.

Are camping retreat is one of a kind as we offer land and water activities, including campfire stories, sailing, kayaking, row boats, archery, hiking, and kids playing. But it also includes a financial wellness lunch, networking workshops, and other opportunities for single moms to mingle and foster professional growth.

Enabling single mothers to succeed professionally requires recognition that family never takes a back seat. Giving single moms the tools they need to grow their business and level up their finances means giving them what they need to strengthen their relationship with their kids. As far as Single Moms Planet is concerned, financial success and a healthy, happy family go hand-in-hand.

Our Single Moms & Kids Camping Adventure offers a little slice of paradise where moms and kids can relax, have fun, enjoy a stunning natural setting, and, for the moms, share ideas and work together to bring their business to the next level.
