Irene and Carly/Irene's Bluffton/Hilton Head Affiliate Group

My name is Irene Vouvalides, and my greatest accomplishment is being the proud mother of my beautiful daughter, Carly Elizabeth Hughes, who now calls the spirit world home.

When Carly transitioned on February 17th, 2013, I did not believe I had the strength to live without her. I now KNOW that she is with me always, always by my side, helping me and guiding me. I am living with her!

Carly was very vocal on Earth and is just as vocal in the spirit world. She occasionally wakes me to let me know something has been done incorrectly for our upcoming conference, and she has been correct!

I am honored to be on the board of directors of HPH, Co-affiliate leader of HPH Only Child/All Our Children with Lisa Wilcoxson, co-host of a monthly chat with Kathy MacMannis, and co-host of the evening meetings with Elizabeth Boisson. All of these meetings take place on Zoom. I am also a caring listener and affiliate leader of the HPH affiliate group Hilton Head/ Bluffton, where we have in-person meetings. I started this group in 2015 after my husband Tony and I moved from New Jersey to Hilton Head, South Carolina. Our members have formed strong bonds and friendships that have grown beyond our group meetings, and we frequently socialize.

I have been the conference co-chair with Elizabeth in 2018 and 2022 and for our upcoming conference in August. Elizabeth and I have been working on the conference almost 24/7 (honestly), and we know it will be the best experience ever for attendees.

HPH is my family, and it has introduced me to the most amazing people who I now call family. I love the connections I have made with other parents and the signs and synchronicities that are a part of my daily life, and I am so grateful to be a part of this wonderful, caring, and healing organization.

In my free time, I enjoy cooking with my husband and entertaining friends and family here in the Lowcountry. I also enjoy golfing and recently scored my lowest ever (82) here in my community at Moss Creek.

I look forward to hugging each one of you at the conference in August.

~With love, Irene Vouvalides
