25/8 MOMents Escapes
I’m the founder of 25/8 MOMents Escapes, a travel experience designer specializing in restorative retreats and curated getaways for single mothers and their families. A strategist and single mom of four, I design spaces that honor both the need for solo rest and joyful connection—without the stress. My work centers dignity, emotional ease, and the strong belief that single parents deserve more than survival.

I’m Sharika Kellogg—experience architect, strategist, and single mom of four adopted sons. I created 25/8 MOMents Escapes with one goal in mind: to give single mothers (and their kids) access to something most of us are taught we don’t deserve—intentional rest and joy.
These escapes aren’t just about travel. They’re about coming home to yourself—whether that’s for a weekend away with your children, or time away from them so you can refill your cup. I design both.
Single parents often live in extremes—always giving, rarely receiving. That’s why I offer two types of curated experiences:
🌿 Parent-Only Escapes
These are for the parents who needs to exhale, reconnect with herself, and take up space without apology. No packing for tiny humans. No bedtime routines. Just peace, perspective, and the ability to hear your own thoughts again. You are not “leaving your kids behind.” You are remembering who you are—and that benefits everyone you care for.
👨👩👦 Family-Centered Getaways
These are for the moments when you crave connection with your kids, but without the stress of planning everything yourself. Whether it’s a weekend retreat or a multi-day experience, these escapes are built to hold you both. Kids get age-appropriate enrichment; moms and dads get moments of rest. Nobody’s left out. Everybody’s cared for.
Both types of escapes are essential, because you deserve space to restore and to bond. You shouldn’t have to choose between your own well-being and your child’s joy. I make sure you don’t have to.
I design with strategy, structure, and my heart. Whether you’re a parent booking for yourself or a nonprofit leader looking to sponsor family experiences, you’ll get white-glove attention backed by lived experience and operational expertise.
My process starts with listening. I want to know what you’re carrying, what you’re craving, and what “ease” would look like if you didn’t have to justify it. Then I design around that.
Each escape is customized. Some are low-cost and local. Some are high-touch and out of state. Some are healing. Some are just fun. But all of them are designed to create breathing room for families who rarely get any.
✔️ Parent-only retreats (solo or small group)
✔️ Family-centered getaways with built-in support for moms
✔️ “Exhale days” and short-format pop-up experiences
✔️ Custom travel planning for collectives of single moms
✔️ Sponsorship-friendly experiences for nonprofits and funders
✔️ Program design for orgs supporting single-parent families
I’m based in Tulsa, OK and plan travel nationwide.
Calls & consults available Tuesdays–Thursdays; half-days Fridays.
I don’t take client calls on Mondays—because in my world, rest isn’t a reward. It’s a requirement.
✨ Single moms deserve real rest—not just sleep, but space
✨ Travel can reconnect you to who you were before you had to be everything
✨ You shouldn’t have to choose between joy and responsibility
✨ Both being alone and being together can be healing
✨ If no one’s made space for you before—now we do
Whether you’re overdue for a solo pause or craving connection without the chaos, 25/8 MOMents Escapes is here to hold you.
You’ve carried so much. Let’s carry something for you.
This trip to San Juan was everything I hoped it would be—and more. As a single mom, I wanted to give my son something special for graduation: not just a vacation, but a memory. Sharika made sure we had both. From the ease of planning to the thoughtful touches once we arrived, everything felt seamless. We explored the city, relaxed by the water, and had real time to connect—just the two of us. It was beautiful, meaningful, and completely stress-free. I’ll never forget and neither will he.
I wanted a trip my kids would never forget—and Sharika delivered. From the moment we arrived, everything felt magical. Swimming with the pigs on a pink sand beach wasn’t just a bucket list moment—it was pure joy. Sharika thought of every detail so I didn’t have to, which meant I could actually be present and have fun with my kids. No stress, no overplanning—just memories we’ll talk about forever.
Iceland is a favorite of mine—first as a solo retreat to reconnect with myself, then as a family adventure with my kids. For parents, it offers peace, stillness, and healing in its hot springs and wide-open skies. For families, it’s pure wonder: waterfalls, double rainbows, black sand beaches, and the magic of the Northern Lights. It’s a place where you can finally breathe—first alone, then together.
Cabo is my go-to for a parent-only escape—warm sun, ocean views, and just enough luxury to feel cared for without lifting a finger. It’s a place where you can wake up slowly, sip something cold by the water, and remember what it feels like to be off duty. Whether it’s journaling at sunrise or dancing after dark, Cabo offers the kind of rest that stays with you long after you leave.
A Disney Cruise is my top pick for a family escape that actually feels like a break. The kids are entertained, engaged, and safe—which means you can relax without guilt. Whether it’s island-hopping in the Caribbean or exploring Alaska’s coast, the magic is in the balance: built-in adventure for them, built-in breathing room for you. It’s one of the few vacations where everyone gets what they need.
Atlantis in the Bahamas is a dream for family escapes—especially when you want big fun without sacrificing comfort. There’s something for everyone: water parks, marine life, beaches, and just enough luxury to let parents feel like it’s their vacation too. My kids could explore all day while I found moments of quiet or joined in the adventure. It’s the kind of place where memories are made without anyone feeling left out—or worn out.
