NATURE GUARDIANS
Natalie Taormina
GROUP LEADER
Ocean State Kids, Owl Adventure Club
Motherhood has become the heart of Natalie’s purpose. After welcoming her first son in 2024 and now expecting her second baby boy, she has found deep fulfillment in nurturing connection, creativity, and presence within her family. Valuing an unhurried childhood, Natalie celebrates the wonder in ordinary moments—from library adventures to simple nature walks with her family.
After several years in a government contracting career, Natalie chose to pause her professional path to be home with her children during this season of life. Beyond motherhood, she is a lifelong creative whose passions range from watercolors to journaling reflections on growth and gratitude. These quiet pursuits allow her to capture the beauty and lessons tucked within daily life.
Through her journey, Natalie continues to redefine success—not as perfection, but as the courage to show up wholeheartedly, again and again.
