October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, a topic we’re very connected to here at LUMO, with our roots in the coaching and support of working parents and mothers. We’re so lucky to have the incredible Jenn Andreou as part of our LUMO coaching team, and as part of her own loss and grief […]
It’s that time of year again. The much-anticipated (yet frequently dreaded) one day a year where we celebrate everything that moms are to their families – Mother’s Day. Mother’s Day brings up a lot of emotions for people, and not all of it is of the “boy I’m glad to be celebrated” variety. At LUMO, […]
Yes, yes. It’s a new year! Maybe you’ve heard? Anna here. I’m not much of a resolution person, but I do like to do a little look behind/look ahead in early January and set some intentions. At its very best, the turn of the year can be a time to reflect on the successes of […]

Hello mothers and all others, Please excuse this interruption of your weekly broadcast. I have a declaration to make, and I most humbly request your support. We have a tool we use as coaches, one that is a bit sneaky and seen by others as more of an idea than a legitimate tool. That tool […]
