Fall 2026 Summit: The Whisper that Wouldn't Leave DEADLINE EXTENDED TO SEPTEMBER 10TH! @Christine Ross and I are looking for speakers for The Whisper That Wouldn’t Leave, a 3-day online summit for moms happening October 19–21, 2026. This summit explores the quiet questions that can show up in motherhood: 🩷 What do I want now? 🩷 What parts of myself have I put aside? 🩷 Who am I becoming? 🩷 How do I make room for myself too? We’re looking for speakers who can bring honest conversations, helpful tools, personal stories, creative experiences, and fresh perspectives around identity, creativity, guilt, time for yourself, personal growth, reconnection, relationships, dreams, interests, and becoming. Most sessions will be prerecorded or audio, with limited opportunities to participate in our live panel. If your work can help a mom hear that little whisper inside herself, and do something with it, we’d love to hear from you. 🩷 Please tag one or both of us in your comment.👇🏻

One morning a few weeks ago I heard a knock. By the time I opened the door, nobody was there. Hanging from the doorknob was a bag with vanilla wafers, six bananas, heavy cream, and a note: “I saw your pictures on Facebook and didn’t know how to ask you to make me one. If you are so inclined, I promise to return the dish.” No signature. Didn’t need one. I knew exactly who it was. It was my neighbor from across the street except she couldn't move that fast so she had to have had her grandchildren deliver it. What’s a baker supposed to do? I made the banana pudding. I even whipped the cream. In the Academy, we spend a lot of time talking about technique, starters, hydration and crumb. But sometimes we forget the simplest reason most of us started baking. We love to feed people. That spirit is at the heart of Crust & Crumb Academy. We learn together, get better together, and occasionally get ambushed by neighbors carrying bananas. If that sounds like your kind of community, come find us here: www.skool.com/crust-crumb-academy Come bake with us.
