This year you can register to join a community walk with the Village founders in Santa Monica or register for a virtual walk and go solo or organize your own community walk wherever you are across the country. Bring your stroller, your skates, yourself, and walk, run, skip, or shimmy to help new and expecting moms in need of support!
Stroller Stride: Make Like a Mama and Roll With It
Join us for the inaugural Stroller Stride, a 2.6 km walk (an ULTRA mini marathon) along the beach in Santa Monica.
Lunch + Learn with Lauren Eckstrom
Join our Virtual Village as we talk trials of the fourth trimester and how to reclaim it. With guest lecturer Lauren Eckstrom.
Suggested donation $20
Guest Lecturer Lauren Eckstrom has a million very impressive credentials but we are dying to hear from her because, in addition to her ample expertise (see below), she just celebrated her first BIRTHday of becoming a mom. And despite all of her best efforts and preparedness, what shocked her most was the LEAST talked about trimester-the one AFTER baby is born! Join us as this amazing mama talks about what she very recently learned about the fourth trimester and how you might take your power back during this very vulnerable time.
OPTIONAL LUNCH SHARE! Once registered, you will receive a recipe for one of Lauren's favorite dishes, to be enjoyed during the event, or anytime really! We are so looking forward to lunching and learning with you!
