Tonight we begin with two conversations about what shapes children—and what parents don’t always see.

FRIDAY — Parenting Community Circle(Click Here)
Friday, Sept. 18 | 12 PM ET | LIVE on Zoom
This is a place to think out loud, share experiences, ask questions, listen to other parents, exchange resources, and realize that you don’t have to figure everything out by yourself.
OCTOBER 10 — WORKSHOP PARENTING TODAY - Practical Tools for Busy Parents Raising Children in a Changing World
Saturday, Oct. 10, 2026 | 10 AM ET | LIVE on Zoom
On October 10, we’ll bring parents, experts, and community together for a more practical experience focused on recognizing what we may not see, understanding what may be influencing our children, and making more intentional parenting decisions.
You don’t have to attend everything. Start wherever you are.
And if you know another parent, grandparent, caregiver, educator, mentor, auntie, uncle, or friend who could benefit from these conversations, forward this email and invite them to come with you.
We’re building this community one conversation—and one relationship—at a time.
See you tonight,
Calvin Creates, Founder
