Real Challenge
We believe both physical and emotional challenges create deeper connection between a child and a parent.
When you push through something hard together—whether it’s a hike, a fear, or a feeling—you build trust that lasts longer than any conversation.

Neurodiverse Inclusion
We don’t believe in cookie-cutter experiences. Families with unique needs are seen, known, and supported here—with options tailored for neurodiverse kids and their parents.

One-on-One Format
One parent. One child. No noise. No crowd. Just focused time to reconnect, reset, and rebuild the bond that matters most.

What Will They Remember?

They’ll remember the way you looked at them on the trail.
The moment you high-fived after facing a fear.
The story you told by the fire.
This isn’t just time away.
It’s the kind of time that shapes who they become—
and how they’ll one day show up for their own children.

Erin

Erin brings two decades of experience working with children and families in crisis and transition. She holds a Doctorate in Education, is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), and a Licensed Behavior Specialist (LBS). She’s served in homes, clinics, schools, and public systems—always advocating for the dignity and emotional safety of children with autism and disabilities.

But Erin’s leadership is personal as much as professional.

She is a mother of five in a blended family and carries lived experience with divorce, dysfunction, and the hard-won work of healing. She knows what it feels like to carry invisible pressure—being the high-performing professional, the present mother, the supportive wife, the dependable friend—and to wrestle with the guilt that comes when something slips.

She believes many women are silently drowning in these expectations, often amplified by the constant comparison of social media. Erin’s vision for Tribe Lab is to create a community of mothers who feel less alone, less judged, and more supported—as they fight to stay connected to what truly matters.

Because when women feel seen, safe, and supported—they become radically present. And presence is the gift their children never forget.

OUR STORY

We’ve lived the noise, the pressure, the guilt, and the grind. We’ve felt the drift that happens in families—not because we don’t love each other, but because life gets loud and connection gets lost.

Tribe Lab was born from our decision to stop drifting. To turn down the volume. To show up fully for the people right in front of us.

We believe presence is the most radical act of love in a distracted world.
And we’re here to help other families reclaim it.

Chris

Chris is a father of five (ages 4 to 18), a mission-driven entrepreneur, and the founder of multiple ventures built to create impact and solve real-world problems. His leadership spans over a decade of building businesses, navigating high-stakes challenges, and helping others rise with clarity, conviction, and purpose.

He’s also walked through divorce and has more than a decade of personal sobriety—experience that has shaped him into a man who believes deeply in healing, rebuilding, and the quiet, sacred battle of showing up for your family every day.

Chris also coached youth soccer part-time in earlier seasons of life—giving him insight into how children learn, connect, and respond to presence.

His passion for Tribe Lab is grounded in something often left unspoken: the need for men to have a safe place to open up. He believes that fatherhood demands emotional honesty, but that many men have never been given permission to be vulnerable. Tribe Lab exists in part to create that space—for men to step into leadership not with bravado, but with truth.

Because when men do the work to face their wounds—they become emotionally available fathers. And that is how legacies shift.

WHY? We started Tribe Lab because something sacred was slipping away.

Not all at once—but slowly, quietly—under the weight of busy schedules, glowing screens, and the noise of modern life.

We believe every parent deserves more than guilt, and every child deserves more than distraction.

Tribe Lab exists to help families fight for connection—on purpose.

Through challenge, presence, and play, we’re helping parents and kids rediscover each other—one moment at a time.
