This year, MommyCon’s goals are even bigger. Xza Higgins, The company’s CEO and Program Director says:

 

“In 2016 we aim to grow with our audience, just as their children have grown up with them. We will continue to offer sessions for new and expectant parents, but our goal is to provide offerings for every stage of early childhood. Our theme is aptly entitled ‘Growing Together.'”

She will provide a raw and emotional look into nourishing babies, toddlers, and mothers.
