Real Talk: An Intimate Conversation About Motherhood

Motherhood—beautiful, messy, transformative, and everything in between. Let’s have a real, open-hearted conversation about what it truly means to step into this role.

This facilitated judgment-free roundtable is for anyone on the journey—whether you’re a seasoned mama with wisdom to share, a new parent navigating uncharted waters, or someone just beginning to think about family planning. We’ll dive into the raw, unfiltered realities of motherhood—the highs, the lows, and the lessons that shape you along the way.

Come to share, listen, and connect in a space designed for honest storytelling, mutual support, and collective wisdom.

Meet Emily:

Emily Merrell is the Founder and Business Coach at Second Degree Society and co-founder of Ready Set Coach. Emily is passionate about helping women find clarity in their business ideas and take action.

She is a recent Denver transplant from SF and NYC and in her spare time you can find her adventuring in her new city, playing with her son, Jackson, or planning her next taco night.

Meet Holly:
Holly Cocozza is a multi passionate superconnector, community strategist, toddler mama and Chicagoan who made her way to Cali sunshine 12 years ago.☀️She got her professional start in consumer experiential marketing at a large ad agency (Ogilvy) where she led brand activations for Microsoft, American Express, Nike, Proctor & Gamble.

She’s a forever student, always curious to learn new things and hear new perspectives.  If there’s a beat, she will be dancing – especially to millennial pop and R&B. She loves explosive cardio when she can fit it in and has been known to go over the top for kid bday parties.
