Rashidah Cartwright
Host of the Moms Who Hustle Summit
Welcome to the Moms Who Hustle Summit —a space created by autism moms, for autism moms.
This summit isn’t just another event; it’s a movement. I know firsthand the strength it takes to navigate our journey, balancing the unique needs of our children with our own dreams, ambitions, and self-care. I created this summit to bring us together, to support each other, and to remind every autism mom out there that she has a purpose, a voice, and a community behind her.
At this summit, you’ll find so much more than just information. You’ll find connection, empowerment, and real tools to turn your challenges into fuel for your growth. Whether you’re looking to discover new ways to support your child, searching for your own purpose, or just craving time with a group of women who get it—you’re in the right place. Together, we’ll dive deep, laugh hard, and maybe even shed a few tears. And by the end, I promise you’ll walk away feeling recharged, uplifted, and unstoppable.
I can’t wait to welcome each and every one of you. This is your space, your time, and your chance to claim the life and purpose you deserve.
Join us for an experience that celebrates the incredible strength, resilience, and badass spirit that makes autism moms truly one of
a kind.
