Motherhood Unfiltered Is BACK — and Better Than Ever!

Let’s be real—motherhood is beautiful, but it’s also exhausting, overwhelming, and sometimes just plain hard.
You give your all to your little one(s)... but who’s checking in on you?
That’s where Motherhood Unfiltered comes in. 💛
We're so excited to relaunch our FREE monthly support group for moms, starting Tuesday, July 8th, and continuing every 2nd Tuesday of the month at our Okeechobee office. This is your time to connect with other moms, take a deep breath, and know you’re not alone.
What’s new this year?
👶 A kids' group just for them!
Now you can attend without worrying about childcare—your little ones will enjoy a safe, fun space while you focus on you.
🧠 Led by a licensed therapist
Every session is guided by a professional who understands the highs, lows, and everything in between. This isn’t just venting—it’s real support, in a safe and judgment-free space.

Why join?
Because motherhood shouldn’t feel like a solo journey. Whether you’re a new mom, seasoned pro, or somewhere in between, we all need space to be honest, connect, and recharge.
So bring your messy bun, your honest thoughts, and your beautiful, unfiltered self.
We’ll be here—ready to support you every step of the way.

Calling all dads and father figures! Join us for a morning of fun, fishing, and family bonding at Dad’s Game Plan – Fishing Edition.
This free event is designed to give dads and their kids a chance to connect in a relaxed, outdoor setting. Whether you’re an experienced angler or it’s your first time with a rod and reel, this event is for everyone. We’ll have light competitions, tasty snacks, and great conversations—all centered around strengthening the bond between fathers and their children.
Midway through the morning, we’ll take a short break for a meaningful chat about fatherhood, family, and the support services Healthy Start offers to help families thrive.
No gear? No problem! We’ll have supplies available for those who need them. Just bring your enthusiasm and be ready to enjoy some quality time with your little one.
This isn’t just a fishing trip—it’s a chance to be present, make memories, and celebrate the important role dads play in their children’s lives.
Let’s cast a line, laugh a little, and create moments that matter. We can’t wait to see you there! 👨👧👦🐟
