WE PUT OUR HEART & SOUL INTO YOURS

Does this sound familiar Mama?

We speak to women every day, at every stage of the motherhood journey, who are overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious or lonely. They tell us that they have lost their ‘spark’, feel pulled to pieces by motherhood, and are worried that they might never feel ‘normal’ or find their identity again. They are simply surviving parenthood.

They are drained by the relentlessness of parenting and grieve aspects of their old self and life, yet feel guilty and ashamed for feeling this way. They struggle to put their own feelings and needs on the table, yet sometimes resent their child or partner as they are always ‘bottom of the pile’. They worry that they are failing, and doubt themselves. They feel a tension between what they want for their life, versus the needs of their children.

They worry if they said all of this out loud, people might judge them or think that they are a bad mum. They might notice that unhelpful patterns of communication and behaviour from how they were parented as children are trickling down into the way they parent their own child. For others, in trying to parent differently, they may be inadvertently overcompensating, which can create problems in its own right.

They know that something has to change. If it doesn’t, they know they will resent the loss of important parts of themselves, their career success or aspirations. They know that the overwhelm and anxiety will continue, the frustration and disconnection will build and that their emotional wellbeing and relationships will suffer. They know that this will affect not only them, but their child and family. They want to be a great mum and know how to successfully manage the demands of the motherhood/ life/ work juggle. They want to reignite their spark and navigate their motherhood journey from a place of confidence and resilience, holding on to themselves as an individual in the process.
