What Makes Our Community Special?

Diverse paths to motherhood

Motherhood Reimagined provides a safe space to share and learn from each other where your peers provide thoughtful advice and share their vulnerabilities to inspire and guide our journeys.

Building a support network as a single mom

Together we can show the world that becoming a mother outside of partnership isn't shameful or always a back up plan, but an awesome empowered path to becoming the mom you're yearning to be.

Diverse paths to motherhood

We’re here to provide support and guidance so you can be the confident, badass, grounded mother you knew you were always meant to be.

Imagine feeling supported and seen throughout all aspects of your journey--not having to explain yourself and feel frustrated about your friends that genuinely want to help, but just don't really get it (and always manage to say the wrong thing). 

Wouldn’t it be amazing to be part of a group of women who've been there, who can help you process the roller coaster of emotions, listen beyond your confusion and help you make your life simpler and more full of joy no matter what stage of the SMC journey you are in?

WHAT CLIENTS SAY?

KIND WORDS FROM MY LOVELY CLIENTS

"Before I joined the Thinkers group I had many fears and unanswered questions. I was frustrated since I've been seriously contemplating what to do with my frozen eggs for over a year. Having Sarah’s expertise along with a place to process my emotions and concerns in a community of other women gave me momentum. In just one month of the group, I have decided to move forward with trying. I wish I had joined sooner!! It would have saved me a year of trying to figure it out on my own!"

— Lorena

"Before I joined Sarah’s Community, I was struggling with a decision to move forward with becoming a SMC. I had been stuck for so many years but the group helped me become so much more informed so that I understood what was holding me back.

I let go of the shame of wanting to be an SMBC and I was exposed to tons of resources that made me feel so empowered and knowledgeable.”

— Melisa S.

"Before I started working with Sarah, I was really afraid to give up on partnership and parenting happening together. I knew it would take work to get to a place I wanted to go. Now, I’m pregnant and I have far less fear. This decision feels so right and my life feels full of love and support. Having Sarah by my side while I explored the path to single parenthood was invaluable. "

— Meg

"After feeling stuck for a year, Sarah helped me manage my emotions, uncertainty and doubt and expertly guided me to a strong place where I finally felt ready to take the next steps to becoming an SMC."

— S.E.

"I wish I had known about Sarah’s group five years ago when I first went to a fertility doctor. I would have been so much more informed and would have done things differently. Sarah’s Community was the best investment I made in this process. If I had joined sooner, I would have saved so much time, money and stress.” "

— Melisa S.

Why You Should Join?

How would it feel to hear panels of SMC’s answer questions on hot topics such as donor siblings, dating, having more than one child, embryo donation, juggling career and parenting and more? It’s so powerful to get more that one perspective on these topics and be able to ask them questions directly. 

 

And, most importantly, imagine having clarity about your choices: Not only dropping the doubt, but feeling empowered and clear on every step of the journey. 

 

But maybe you’re wondering if the Motherhood Reimagined SMC Community is right for you?

 

It's right for you if: 

  • You're yearning for more community and connection
  • You're at any stage of the SMC journey
  • You want to both contribute and learn from others
  • You want to connect with other women in your local area or in the same stage of the journey as you.
  • You love my podcast but would love to be able to ask my guest questions during a live interview.

 

 

It's not right for you if: 

  • You don't want to connect with women at any stage of the single mom by choice journey
  • You want to remain isolated throughout your journey
  • You don't believe in the power of community

HI!  I'M SARAH KOWALSKI.

Single Mother by Choice, Life Coach, author and founder of Motherhood Reimagined.™

I’m Sarah Kowalski, Single Mom by Choice, Fertility Doula, Life Coach and author. I coach women who are struggling to conceive a child when it's not taking shape as planned -- either because of the lack of a partner or fertility issues.

My own arduous path to motherhood, inspired me to combine my expertise as a life coach, lawyer and patient's rights advocate with my passion for teaching mind body practices such as Feldenkrais and Qigong. Through this unique blend of training and experience, I help women quiet the voice of doubt and redefine what it means to be a mother so they can embrace their unique path to motherhood.
