The Mother of all Communities
Real Growth Begins Here.
Using our 3-Pillar Process. Life Appraisal™, Life|Work Assessments™, and Deliberate Design Action™ reflect on how you got here, explore your options and choose a path, and move forward with deliberate, value-aligned action.
This isn’t therapy. It’s a research-informed, skills-based framework designed to help you live with purpose.
Cocomadre was founded after experiencing firsthand how life doesn’t always unfold as planned. Colleen faced the challenges of rebuilding after her divorce, while Tamara navigated a financial freefall—both had to reimagine their futures in ways they never expected.
They realized that for many women, the path they’ve been on isn’t always the one they will continue, and transitions such as an empty nest, career shifts, or financial upheaval can leave people wondering, “What’s next?”
COCOMADRE was created to help women view these moments not as endings but as opportunities to rediscover themselves, find new purpose, and step confidently into the next chapter of their lives with the skills and resources they have acquired.
The Comadre Fund
Beverly & Rodney Hawes
The Comadre Fund is dedicated to helping individuals unlock their potential through education and skills acquisition, preparing them for a meaningful future. Inspired by the values of Rodney and Beverly Hawes—that everyone makes a difference, education is vital, and believing in someone can transform lives—we honor their legacy by investing in people. Grounded in Cocomadre’s pillars of Educate, Guide, and Connect, we create pathways to purpose and prosperity by linking individuals to the resources and relationships they need to thrive. Together, we assist people in designing the life they want so they can share their gifts to make a better world, one person at a time.

Events
The best breakthroughs rarely happen alone.
Something powerful happens when you step into a room—virtual or physical—where the only agenda is growth. Our gatherings aren’t about hype or hustle. They’re about presence. Whether it’s a workshop, retreat, or live meetup, we make space for what matters: asking better questions, having harder conversations, and moving toward your life with intention -
Social Media
You don’t need more noise. You need more nourishment.
Our corner of the internet isn’t curated perfection. It’s where we show up with truth, insight, and the kind of clarity that doesn’t vanish after you scroll away. Expect ideas worth sitting with, and stories that echo what you’ve been feeling -
Community
The Mother of all Communities. Life design is hard. It’s harder in isolation.
Inside Cocomadre, we don’t pretend to have it all figured out. What we do have is a circle of women willing to look honestly at their lives and show up for each other as they change. Not for applause, but for alignment. This is where courage gets traction -
Challenges
Change doesn’t require an overhaul. Just a start.
Our challenges are small by design—because real transformation often begins with one quiet shift, repeated. Here, you’ll find short sprints that invite you to test a new way of seeing, living, or responding. Think of it as gentle disruption. -
Cocolibro
Not your average book club. Each month, we deep dive into books that challenge where we are and stretch who we’re becoming. These are the voices that speak our language—authors who make us think, pause, question, and rise. In 30 days, you’ll move through layered ideas, bold truths, and conversations that stay with you—shared with other Comadres who get it.
We don’t just read.
We wrestle, reflect, and become. -
Comadre Fund
Because support shouldn’t be a luxury.
The Comadre Fund exists to quietly close the gap for women ready to begin again. Scholarships, supplies, support. When you give, you’re not saving someone—you’re reminding her that she was never alone.
