Who we are
We’re Pam Moore and Stephanie Sprenger, two Colorado-based writers, event producers, standup comics, and moms who left traditional careers in allied health (occupational therapy and music therapy) to explore new paths in midlife.
Between us, we’ve published four books, had our bylines on hundreds of personal essays and articles, facilitated dozens of workshops, and told jokes in front of thousands of people.
We believe creativity flows best in community, your voice matters, and there is, in fact, no such thing as TMI.
We’re so glad you’re here.
