About us
A space for parents who care about how they spend their time to connect, talk, and support each other through real life.
If you’re a parent, you already know…
Life is fast.
Between work, family, responsibilities, and everything in between, it can feel like there’s always something pulling at your time and attention, and in the meantime, dreams get put on hold, and our kids grow up before we know it.
This group is simply a place to slow that down for a bit.
What this group is
✅ A casual, welcoming space where parents can:
👉🏼 meet other parents in the area
👉🏼 have real conversations about life, work, business and family
👉🏼 share experiences (the good, the messy, and everything in between)
👉🏼 connect with people who are thinking about how they want their time, work, and life to fit together
No pressure.
No expectations.
No need to have anything “figured out.”
What we do
✅ We keep things simple and relaxed.
👉🏼 Wealth-Building Wednesdays (online): simple, educational sessions on money so things finally start to make sense
👉🏼 Parentpreneur Peer Feedback (online): bring a business challenge or idea and get honest feedback from other parents
👉🏼 Mother Brunchers (in person): brunch with other moms who get it
👉🏼 Dads Off Duty (in person): a night for dads to hang out and connect
👉🏼 Playdates (in person): kids burn off energy, parents actually get to talk
📍 In-person events are rolling out in select areas. Want one in yours? Message me about hosting.
✅ Some conversations naturally touch on things like:
👉🏼 work and career paths
👉🏼 business and side projects
👉🏼 time, flexibility, and how people are structuring their lives
👉🏼 what’s working (and what’s not) in this season
Nothing formal.
Just real conversations.
Who this is for
✅ Parents who want:
👉🏼 connection
👉🏼 conversation
👉🏼 and a space where they don’t have to explain everything
✅ Especially if you’ve ever found yourself thinking about:
👉🏼 how your time is spent
👉🏼 what you’re building long-term
👉🏼 or how to create more flexibility in your life
If you’ve been wanting to meet other parents who get it…
you’re in the right place.
Looking forward to meeting you,
Nia Champaneria

Quick question...
When was the last time you thought about your taxes BEFORE it was time to file them?
If you're like most of us, probably sometime around March or April. 😂
We gather our documents, cross our fingers, and hope we don't owe Uncle Sam too much money.
But what if there are things we could be doing NOW to make tax season a little less painful?
Because here's something worth knowing: Tax preparation and tax planning are two very different things.
And with 2026 coming to a close, now's a good time to find out what opportunities might still be available to your family.
This month's Wealth-Building Wednesday is all about:
END-OF-YEAR TAX STRATEGIES FOR FAMILIESI'll be joined by Gary Watts, CFP®, EA, CTC, founder of Watts Advisors, a tax-first financial advisory firm based in Walnut Creek, California.
Gary specializes in helping families and business owners make smarter financial decisions by looking at the tax implications BEFORE making those decisions.We'll explore things like:
✔️ Potential tax-saving opportunities to review before December 31st
✔️ Family-related tax benefits and retirement planning considerations
✔️ The difference between tax preparation and proactive tax planning
✔️ Common tax mistakes and misleading advice to watch out for
✔️ Questions you should be asking your tax professional before the year endsAnd yes, we'll leave time for your questions!
You don't need to be a tax expert, a business owner, or have a six-figure income to join us. Just a parent who wants to make smarter decisions with their hard-earned money.
