Diana prides herself on the very practical results of helping "moms who do too much" to scale down their decision fatigue, prioritize their schedule and sanity, and free up more time, focus, and energy for the work and family activities they love. She specifically got certified as a Fair Play Method Facilitator to help women access the time- and anxiety-saving tools author Eve Rodsky created to complement her book, "Fair Play." Since it's difficult to put value on what you can't see, Diana's initial work with women helps illuminate the invisible labor involved in running their household; what it's costing them in time, energy, and missed opportunities; and what steps will be most important to take next, based on their individual and family priorities.

Kate & Amy help women bloom in a constructive, creative, and fun community and workspace, to nourish your work, your mind, and your body.

Best friends Amy Dagliano and Kate Viggiano Janich were celebrating their shared birthday (born on the same day and year), when the conversation turned to how amazing women are when they join together for a common goal. They talked about how disconnected women often feel, when they try to make progress on their own. In that moment, a seed was planted.

Months later, while on a lunch break walk together, the seed sprouted. They decided to create a community for women to connect with each other, be productive, and balance work with creativity, wellness and heart. Like its namesake, the Rowan Tree coworking and cogrowth idea took root…and began to grow. Today, it is a thriving community both in-person and online.

The Sage Sisters provides women who are passionate about becoming the best versions of themselves the opportunity to discover, learn, and grow with other like-minded women through personal development events and a membership group.

“My mission is to provide a community within which each person can grow individually and together, create meaningful and lasting relationships, and impact our lives and the lives of everyone we come into contact with in a positive way. My vision is for us to become the best versions of ourselves and leave the world in a better place.”

Janet and Samantha also do a Book Day series to help give personal development book recommendations.
