The Leonie Circle

Faith-filled support for the quirky family God gave you

Raising neurodivergent kids can feel isolating

especially as a Catholic mom.

You love your children deeply. You see both their gifts and their struggles, and you want to support them well.

But some days feel impossibly complicated.

Mass is unpredictable.

Family prayer rarely looks the way you imagined it would.

School requires constant advocacy (or, if you’re homeschooling, bargaining).

And the parenting advice that seems to work for other Catholic families often doesn’t work in yours.

So somewhere between managing meltdowns, navigating sibling conflicts, making separate meals, and trying to keep the household functioning, you’re also trying to nurture your children’s faith—and your own.

I know that road well.

After 20 years of parenting neurodivergent kids in Catholic spaces, I created the Leonie Circle.

A guided community

for Catholic moms walking that same path

I’m Ginny Kochis, and I’m your Leonie Circle guide

I founded Quirky Catholic Kids in 2017 (then Not So Formulaic) as a haven for moms like you and me: Catholic women raising the unique and unrepeatable; our greatest challenge and our greatest joy.

Over the years, I’ve spent countless hours researching neurodivergence, supporting families, and learning how faith and practical support can work together in real family life. The Leonie Circle is the kind of space I desperately needed when my own children were younger:

An intentional community. A trusted mentor who shared my beliefs. A place where I could find encouragement, a listening ear, and the support I needed to be the mom God intended for my children.

Welcome to the Leonie Circle

The membership where clarity and confidence replace frustration and fear

Named for Servant of God Leonie Martin,

The Leonie Circle avoids quick fixes and one-size-fits-all parenting formulas.

It offers a place to grow steadily through practical teaching, honest conversation, prayer, and the support of a community that understands the joys and challenges of raising neurodivergent children.

Because maybe you’re not stuck, but you’re not thriving, either.

And you’re tired of managing motherhood alone.

Whether you’re navigating executive function, anxiety, school accommodations, faith formation, friendships, or everyday family life, you’ll always have practical guidance and a supportive community to help you take the next step.

You’re no longer wondering if you’re doing enough.

You’ve built friendships with other Catholic moms who understand your journey and are praying for your family.

Most importantly, you’re parenting with greater clarity, confidence, and peace—not because life is suddenly easy, but because you no longer have to navigate it alone.
