✨ Let's plan the week ahead, together. ✨
I help empty-nest moms complete their to-do list, launch their passion project, and make extra income, all by planning the week ahead in a fun way. You've got this, one step at a time! 😉
Having more free time after the kids grew up was awesome, but it also kind of sucked. 😩
✅ Having free time reminded me that I wanted to do more with my life than be a mother and that maybe now was finally my time to contribute in a larger way.
✅ Having free time reminded me that I was not "just" a mother but also a multi-passionate woman, and that I wanted to feel beautiful, do great things, and enjoy my life after kids.
✅ I wanted to have more money to do the things I loved with the people I cared about, and I wanted to make the world a better place, in the process.
❎ Yet, all that free time also made it way too easy for my fears to come dancing out of the closet like a row of skeletons I couldn't ignore. 😱
👵 What if I was too old to start a business or grow my bank account?
🤮 What if no one wanted to buy what I was selling?
😵 What if my husband could never really understand my later-in-life career vision and I had to do everything alone, without his buy-in or support?
Yes, I had some free time on my hands, but where would I even start?

Thankfully, I'm an eternal optimist and incredibly persistent. 💪 I developed a planning system that helped me turn free time into focused time and launched a small business I love.
Instead of walking away or giving up, I showed up at my kitchen table most days, experimented with what I wanted to build for a business, and kept at it through the up's and down's.
I developed a weekly, astrology-based planning system that allowed my joyful, free-spirited self to get important things done each week, while also enjoying the freedom of life without kids and living in greater alignment with the energies of the Universe, as revealed by astrology. 🌟
Ironically, in the beginning, I thought that I was building a small business as a life coach and astrologer, but I eventually realized that I had something unique to offer beyond this.
The world has lots of coaches--and even astrologers. What is far less common is a support system to help women keep using their spiffy, new yearly planner long after the initial shine wears off! ✅
So after reaching my initial coaching business goals, I pivoted and launched...
the Empty-Nest Moms Planning Club: a fun membership program to help empty-nest moms fulfill their life purpose after kids, by getting organized and planning one week of their life at a time, in alignment with astrological shifts. 💫
Now, it's your turn!
✨ Get Your To-Do List Done in 5 Days: A Guide for Empty Nest Moms ✨
According to one study, 80% of people give up on their New Year's Resolutions within a month.
The fitness app Strava tracked over 800 million activities by users in the new year, and discovered that 80% of them had quit by January 19.
Another study, by The Journal of Substance Abuse, found that 60% of people quit their new year's resolution within 6 months. Only 19% maintained it by the second year.
Bottom line: you're not crazy or alone if you have trouble sticking to resolutions or achieving your big goals.
According to Psychology Today, the reason people fail at keeping resolutions include
- not enough structural support
- goals that are too general or unrealistic
- "all-or-nothing" thinking
- outside pressure rather than authentic desire
The Empty-Nest Moms Planning Club will address all four of these, helping you:
turn resolutions ==> into habits ==> into your dream life after kids!
You're smart enough to know when you need support.
You landed on this web page for a reason. I believe your Higher Self and Spirit Team helped you get here.
They know you have big aspirations, and they are flowing ideas, support, and inspiration to you to help them achieve them. The Empy Nest Moms Planning Club may be one of them.
Your Spirit Team wants you to be happy, and...honestly, they WANT you to succeed because the world needs you right now.
Have you looked around lately?
The environment has been trashed.
Technology is taking over.
Our kids are more miserable and directionless than they’ve been in generations, with mental health problems and suicide running rampant.
You know it's true, but most days you try to avoid thinking about it so you don't have to find that corner you've been wanting to cry in.
Not today, mama. I'm here to help you fulfill your life purpose after kids, one step at a time.
Your dreams are big, but the approach is simple: plan the week ahead, complete the to-do items that matter most, and take back our world and make it better for the next generations.
Here's why our membership actually works.
It addresses the four factors that make it hard for people to stick with their resolutions and achieve their goals.
#1: Structure & Support
We provide you with a planning system and work with you every week to help you plan and then take action, so you go beyond resolutions to creating an actual habit that will stick. You're also a part of our online community, and have Suzanne to cheer you on, so you have plenty of social support to keep you going.
#2: Specific Mini-Goals to Move You Forward
You will create small goals that you can actually accomplish each week. There is nothing vague about them, and you have chosen them on purpose to make progress on your bigger goals and dreams. No longer get lost in doing endless weekly chores, like grocery-shopping, meal-prepping, and tidying the kitchen--start moving forward on the stuff that matters and moves the needle.
#3: Compassionate Mindset
All recovering perfectionists are welcome here. You will find a safe place to set your goals, plan your tasks, and take action, without feeling like you have to do anything perfectly or go all the way in a short time. Heck, you can even take time off whenever you feel like it! Vacation is not only allowed, it is encouraged.
#4: A Vision That Aligns With Your Higher Self
It's easy to stop working toward a goal when part of you doesn't really want to achieve it. That's why we offer a Soul Mission Guide, and monthly, quarterly, and yearly planning pages to ensure you step back from time to time and make sure you are setting goals that align with YOUR true desires, not society's or social media's image of what it means to be successful or happy.

Get Clear.
Get Organized.
Get Going!
I'll be honest. When I started investing in online programs to help me grow my small business, I often felt out of place. 🥸
It seemed like the goal was always to help genius upstarts turn their idea into 20K months or 6- and 7-figure incomes.
Sure, I wanted to increase my income, but I was a part-time, work-from-home mom for years. I really didn't want to rub shoulders with tech bros or feel like I had to enter an entrepreneurial rat race. I was way too old for that, and had to do things my way. 💪
I knew I was smart, passionate, creative, and talented, but as a mama, I didn't quite feel like I fit in with the standard "let's get rich quick" schemes popping up all over the Internet.
Admittedly, in the beginning of any online class I would take, I felt motivated and like I was going to reach that six-figure income, but eventually, I found that my big and lofty goals to make a lot of money and have a hugely impactful business set me up for failure as I was expecting to grow big way faster than was realistic.
The people selling me these programs often did not mention the YEARS it took them to gain their current success.
Through my own trial and error, I discovered how much time it REALLY takes to launch a joyful and sustainable business. I'm still at it today, and I will always be honest with you about my journey.
As a result, I eventually learned that the best way to improve my life and grow my business was to set reasonable goals and move forward one doable step at a time.
I refined my business to help other mamas do the same! Each week, I still use my soulful planning system, and it brings me joy and success. 💫 I'm so excited to share it with you!
Ready to jump right in?
You're 3 steps away from launching your joyful life after kids.
1. Sign up for the membership.
Say "yes" to feeling good about yourself again because you're getting the important stuff done each week and making real strides toward launching your own business, which = impact, joy, and financial freedom. Say goodbye to feeling bad about yourself because you don't have your own cache of money like your girlfriends or family members who had brilliant, full-time careers. (I can relate!)
2. Start planning the week ahead.
Keep an eye out for the upbeat and motivational emails I'll be sending you each week to encourage you to plan the week ahead in a way that balances progress and pleasure--and aligns with astrological shifts. If you feel stuck or need a boost, jump into the online community for motivational support from me and the community or wait for my next encouraging email. I'm your new #1 cheerleader, and I've got your back!
3. Enjoy your next chapter of life after kids!
Look at yourself in the mirror and smile because you did it! You proved to yourself that you have what it takes to be a mom AND a money maker. You became a kick-ass finisher of your to-do list, launched a venture that makes a positive difference, AND created a life that gives you the financial freedom to have fun, invest in you, and take care of those you love. Woohoo! It doesn't get better than this!
The ✨ Empty-Nest Moms Planning Club ✨ will help you overcome the fears and inertia that keep you stuck and, instead, take action that makes real progress and lights you up.
It's been designed for moms like you who have extra free time on your hands because your kids are getting older and you don't work full-time. It's for moms like you who are spiritual and trust in the power of manifestation and working with the Universe to co-create. It's for moms like you who are ready to make your own money doing something you love. Let's go!

I always loved the fresh feeling of cracking open a beautiful, new yearly planner, 🥳
but I hated how after a few weeks or months, I tended to lose steam and that planner--and my dreams--would start gathering dust, leading to a dash of guilt and plenty of disappointment. Maybe the next planner would be better? Or maybe it was just me?!
Nah, it wasn't the planners, and it wasn't me that were the problems. There was a missing piece: ongoing support and motivation! Duh.
Unfortunately, most companies that make planners don't offer coaching, and many coaches don't offer planners. Hmmm. Turns out that my company did both! All I had to do was bring them together in one service.
The Soulful Moms Planning Club was born. Hip, hip, hooray! 🎉
I decided that I would offer a service that most monthly planners do not--weekly motivational coaching to keep the planning joy--and desired results--going. 🗓️
I would price the membership program affordably, at $24/month so that other moms like me could get traction without having to ask their spouse for financial help or feeling guilty about putting it on the credit card. I know how icky that can feel!
The end goal? You'll be able to launch your passion project, make extra money at it, and have your own stash of income to spend as you please, on awesome things like...
-
getting that mani-pedi, guilt-free 💅
-
treating your face to all-natural skincare that rivals Botox
-
stocking your fridge with organic produce so you can live to 100
-
treating yourself to a bouquet of fresh flowers that puts a smile your face 💐
-
donating to your favorite environmental nonprofit so you can protect the Earth for your children and grandchildren
-
taking a luxurious vacation with your partner (or girlfriends) to Bali 🌴🥥
-
buying a new exercise bike to get back in shape
-
finally buying that artwork you've been eyeing to go over your bed
-
adding extra $$$ to your retirement savings
-
investing in some fancy, new crafting supplies
-
saying "yes" to that gorgeous jewelry that will help you feel beautiful at any age
-
splurging on generous gifts for your family and friends that delight and surprise them 💝
-
taking some financial pressure off your spouse so they work and stress less
-
popping into your favorite coffee shop to order a matcha latte as often as you damn well please!
Doesn't that sound delicious? 🍇
You get to choose how to enjoy the financial freedom you are about to create when you get organized, find focus, and take action to launch a small business that brings you extra money and a sense of joy and purpose.
I priced the membership at $24/month because I want to make it easy for you to sign up and stay here for the long-haul. 💗
My goal is to help you not only get excited about planning your week ahead, but to stick with it. That is the direct route to PROGRESS!
As a fellow empty nest mom who was not the primary breadwinner in my family for many years, I know how annoying it feels to have to "ask" your spouse to help out with extra expenses that are important to you.
At $24/month, my hope is that you can sign up without guilt, and not give a damn about that recurring monthly charge on the credit card bill.
Too busy to use the membership in December because you're getting ready for the kids to come home for the holidays? Who cares? It only costs $24.
And if he complains? Remind him that he's paying $120/month for NFL Sunday Ticket.
Plan the week ahead with other moms like you
Make progress on the important stuff
Enjoy life with more financial freedom!
The membership is for you if...
✅ your inner child does a happy dance when you break out the colored pens and starting writing stuff down in your spiffy new planner
✅ you can set aside an hour to plan the week ahead
✅ you have the freedom to make your own schedule each week
✅ you love opening emails from the brands you love and will be excited to hear from Suzanne in your inbox to help you stay on track
✅ you're comfortable using a computer, logging into an online account, downloading PDFs, printing documents, and putting them in a binder (or upgrading to our done-for-you planner)
✅ you have passion and ambition and are capable of taking action--you just need a little extra structure and support
✅ you love astrology or have always been curious about it and think it's pretty damn cool to have your own personal astrologer giving you a heads up on the energies of the week and month ahead
✅ you want to have a bigger impact on the world and have an idea or two on the kind of business or passion project you'd like to launch
✅ you're comfortable making progress, one step at a time, and you want to enjoy the journey
✅ you're not desperate for extra money, but it would be awesome for more to start flowing in
The membership is NOT for you if...
❎ you've never liked using planners, even on Day 1
✅ it's not realistic right now for you to carve out an hour to plan the week ahead
❎ you work full-time or it will bug you to use a planning system that assumes you have lots of free time each week to structure your days as you wish
❎ it will irritate you to get sunny emails from Suzanne cheering you on
❎ you get easily confused on a computer and can never seem to figure out how to log-in or download stuff
❎ you think astrology is ridiculous or "witchcraft" and you can't respect someone who teaches it
❎ you're in dire need of cash and need to launch your business yesterday
❎ your budget is so tight that it stresses you out to pay $24/month or $222 a year to join the membership (take care of your family first; we'll be here when you're ready!)
Is the membership really worth the time and money?
Heck, yes! Check out just a few of the positive results you may enjoy after joining the membership and giving it your 100% effort.
Gain 6+ hours/day to focus on launching your business
If you are awake for 15 hours a day (say, 7AM - 10PM), and you need 9 of them to exercise/meditate, shower, prepare and eat meals, relax, and get ready for bed, that leaves you 6 hours a day to get the important stuff done. I consistently use the planner to help me lock in 6 focused hours of work a day, but it's flexible and I make my own schedule so I can also take off time for doctor's appointments, errands, and time with my husband, family, and friends. Now it's your turn!
Finish each week with 75% or more of your to-do list completed
I have seen a significant increase in the amount of tasks I complete each week because I take the time to plan the week ahead. I start each week with a written plan for what to do each day so I know where to focus my energy. Not in the mood to follow the plan? I just look at my more general, weekly to-do list, and pick a project or task I feel motivated to tackle. I can always move today's scheduled tasks to a different day of the week. As a mom with older kids and time freedom, I have that luxury!
Start Making $1000+ Each Month
While individual results will, of course, vary, and many factors go into launching a business besides planning and organizing, I can share my own results with you. I used this planning system to launch a part-time coaching business that earned me, on average, $1,300 each month, sometimes more. That's not blockbuster money, but it's a hell of a lot better than $0 and gave me extra cash to spend as I pleased! Although results aren't guaranteed, let's cheer each other on, whatever the financial goals. All boats rise together!
How does it work?
Step 1. Plan the week ahead.
One of the most important parts of our process is for you to show up for an hour each week on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday to write your to-do list and plan the week ahead.
Monday morning is the fall-back if you don't manage to plan sooner. I'll send you a reminder Friday morning to do your weekly planning, and you pick a time that works best for you. I'll also follow-up with an email reminder on Monday, that also kicks off the week with some inspiration.
Step 2. Enjoy feeling organized and in control.
Once your planning session is done, you will have a to-list plotted out as action items each day for the week ahead, with the times you plan to accomplish them. Your planning time ensures that you remember all the must-do's--like doctor's appointments and birthdays--and gives you focused time to identify the tasks that will help you complete your passion project or launch your small business, rather than procrastinating or feeling clueless where to start.
Step 3. Take action each day to launch your dream life after kids.
It's Monday and it's time to start taking action. Guess what? It doesn't feel overwhelming; it feels great--because you have a plan and know where to spend your time and energy. Plus, you've designed your own schedule, so it's set up in a way that works for you. Change your mind? In a different mood? Focus on tasks that DO sound good to you that you planned for later in the week. You'll still be making progress and can circle back to Monday's tasks later in the week.
Frequently Asked Questions
⭐ How do I cancel the membership? If you are a monthly member, you can cancel anytime by logging in to your account. You can enjoy the membership for the rest of the billling cycle, and you will not be billed the following cycle.
Annual members can cancel anytime before their yearly auto-renew date to opt out of future fees. Feel free to try out the membership using the monthly membership, and then switch to annual for more savings when you know it's a good fit for you.
In addition, we will send you a reminder email before your membership renews so you can cancel it with ease if that's what you want to do. We know how annoying it can be to get auto-billed when you meant to cancel a subscription, and we want to make it easier for that to NOT happen with us.
⭐ Can I join the membership if I still have school-aged kids or kids living at home with me? Absolutely! As long as your kids are school-aged, older, or independent and you have a significant chunk of time to yourself each week, the membership can still support you.
⭐ I already use a digital calendar on my phone or computer to keep track of appointments and events. Does this mean I can't use the planning system or planner? No, not all. The planning system WILL work for those who use a digital calendar. In fact, Suzanne uses Google calendar to initially record all my doctor's and car appointments, etc., when I first make them and then transfer appointments to my weekly pages as part of the planning process. Remember, this program is for those who enjoy using colored pens to write in their spiffy planner AND who are comfortable working on a computer.
⭐ Can I carry the planner with me wherever I go? The planner is best used at home as it is 8.5 x 11 inches and the printable version is stored in a binder, which can be a little hefty. If it is essential for you to travel with the planner, we encourage you to upgrade to our hardcover, spiral bound planner, which will fit in a laptop case or tote bag (but not a small purse). If you use your planner in tandem with a digital calendar on your phone, as Suzanne does, you will not need to carry the planner with you to appointments.
⭐ Can I use the planner even if I have no idea what business I might want to launch? Yes! Although the planner itself is not geared toward helping you figure out what business you might want to start, it does encourage you to take monthly, quarterly, and yearly reflection time to check in with your inner voice of wisdom and decide on the projects and priorities most important to you.
It also includes a bonus Soul Mission Guide to let you know where your soul is calling you to go in this lifetime. You can also use the planner to add to-do items to the week or month ahead to figure out what business you might want to start, using your own research and any of the great tools out there, which we will inform you about from time to time.
If you would like to use the planner to help you launch a business and make extra money, please do keep in mind that it will likely take longer than for those who know what they want to create as you need to build in time for personal discernment and maybe even hiring a 1:1 private coach or taking an online class. When I started using this planning system, I already knew I wanted to launch a life coaching and astrology business, so I could jump right in with focus.
⭐ Can I still join if I don't want to launch a small business? Yes. Our planning system works, even if you don't want to start a business. We strive to support ambitious moms who want to make an impact after motherhood through their small business or passion project, but the planning system works for any woman trying to launch a joyful life after motherhood. We will occasionally send emails that offer business advice, so if this is going to feel misaligned, you may want to look for another program.
⭐ Is this another get-rich-quick program online, making empty promises? No. I will tell you right now that this planner will not help you get rich quickly. Instead, it will help you set goals, get organized, stay focused, take action, and make progress toward your goal of launching a small business, one step and one day at a time.
If you have a burning desire in your heart to launch a small business, the Universe wants to help make that happen. Our membership program is a powerful support tool along the way. It will likely take time and additional resources to launch your business (e.g., a website, an email provider, scheduling software, etc.). You can research these on your own, and we will occasionally email you tips and tricks on how to use additional resources and techniques to make even more progress.
Please note that I personally used this planning system to launch a part-time business that earned me, on average $1,300/month, which I sustained for 7+ years. My husband is the primary breadwinner in our family and supports me financially, so I was able to use this extra money as I pleased. My new goal is to double that to $2,600/month and when I achieve that I will update this page. Now that my children are older, I plan, long-term, to expand my business to make $100,000+/year, so please know that I think big, while also being honest with you and realistic in my goals. I encourage you to do the same!
⭐ I work full-time. Can I still benefit from the membership? While this planning and support system can be used even for those who work full-time, it has been designed for those who do not currently work outside the home and have plenty of free time to structure as they choose. You may find it frustrating to plan alongside other women who have more free time than you, or to use a planning system that assumes you have a lot of free time to fill each week.
Still interested? Try the membership for a month, and see how you like it. You can do your weekly and monthly planning on the weekends, and use the planning system for the hours outside of work that you can structure for yourself.
⭐ Can I buy the planner without joining the membership? Yep. You can buy our Soul Mission Planner all on its own. All you need to do is decide if you'd like to buy the printable planner PDF or our deluxe, done-for-you, hardcover planner. You can always join the membership at a later time if you find you could use some extra support. Click here to buy the Soul Mission Planner.
⭐ What if I already have a planner that I love to use? You are welcome to use whatever planner works best for you, as long as it has weekly and monthly pages. You'll get our downloadable Soul Mission Planner for free--print the parts you like and leave the rest. You may have to make some adaptations given that you use a different planner, but regardless of the planner you use, the membership can still offer you a planning system, along with motivation, support, and community.
⭐ I don't consider myself a traditional or cookie-cutter, empty-nest mom. Will I fit into this community? This membership is designed for moms who do not currently work outside the home and who have a spouse who is the primary breadwinner. Beyond that, you be you! I, myself, am divorced and remarried, so I do not consider myself 100% traditional
