Our Story

Rustic Wooden Window

Intentions
& Beliefs

What We're Building

Coco & the Novas® is building a modern culture where what makes us human is recognized, carried, and shared—through stories, objects, and everyday moments.​

Why This Exists

​​Coco & the Novas® creates stories, ritual objects, and shared experiences that help people recognize and carry what matters most in them-allowing it to guide meaningful lives.​

Where It Extends

​As this work grows, so does its reach.

A portion of what we create supports efforts focused on the well-being and independence of women and girls—extending this work beyond the object, and into the world.

A Note From the Founders

This began with two people from very different paths—
one shaped by engineering and service, the other by a life rooted in human connection and impact. What they shared was a belief: that something simple, if carried long enough, could change how we move through the world.​​​​​​​

Who's Behind This Work

This work is carried by people—each bringing their own experiences, care, and way of seeing the world.

​

What we create is shaped not just by ideas, but by how we show up for one another, and for those we serve. We don’t stand apart from this work. This is who we are- We are part of it!


Each of us carries something into this work. And together, that’s what brings it to life. 

​

​This has always been about more than an object.
It’s about what happens when something is recognized—
and given the chance to take root and grow.
