Build real skills. Use research-based frameworks. Design the life you want deliberately.
Community. Courses. Experts. Events.
Life design is hard. It’s harder in isolation.
That’s why we built Cocomadre, a network for women navigating life transitions to gather, grow, and get going.
This isn’t just support; it’s structure, strategy, and skills.
Inside you’ll find:
Guided cohorts to help you make progress on your next chapter
Curated tools and courses rooted in our 3-Pillar Process™
Live events with expert discussions to build real skills and real confidence
A supportive, purpose-driven community deliberately designing their lives
This is where you learn the skills, frameworks, and strategies you need to get unstuck and take ACTION.
Where you stop living by default, and start designing.
Courses. Community. Clarity.
Start where you are. We'll help you go.
The Mother of All Communities
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.
Beverly & Rodney Hawes
The Comadre Fund is dedicated to helping women in transition build lives of purpose and possibility through education, skills acquisition, and strategic support.
Inspired by the values of Rodney and Beverly Hawes—entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and believers in people—we honor their legacy through action: that everyone matters, that education transforms lives, and that believing in someone can change everything.
Grounded in Cocomadre’s core commitments to educate, guide, and connect, The Comadre Fund provides targeted resources to help women take their next step.
This includes:
• Tuition and certification assistance
• Bridge loans during crisis
• Emergency support to escape unsafe situations
• Scholarships to Cocomadre programs and courses
We invest in the person first—so they can invest in what’s next.
We can do this, and we’ll do it together
