Motherhood is HARD!
If you are pregnant and celebrating the upcoming birth of your child, but are battling mental and emotional stress, I can help you create space and strength for the delivery of your beautiful babe.
I want to welcome you to the Mama Club, and congratulate you for reaching out for help.
Please know that you are NOT broken or alone.
If you are a new mom feeling overwhelmed, anxious and exhausted, you may find it difficult to find your sense of purpose. I can help you live a fuller and more vibrant life.
I’ve heard women describe their motherhood experience as feeling a bit robotic – doing all the tasks you’re supposed to be doing, but you are not as emotionally or mentally present as you would like to be.
The thoughts and feelings you may be having do not make you a bad mother. You are just a mom who is struggling with the super hard task of caring for tiny humans, caring for yourself, the dog, the cat, the community, all while working (in or out of the home), going to school, maintaining your relationships, and shopping for groceries. Phew!
You may feel distressed knowing that your role as a mom is one that you’ve felt called into, and perceive burnout as a sign that you’ve failed at your calling. This can sometimes lead to a downward spiral into depression, anxiety, anger, isolation and resentment.
Mama, I know you are full of love and great intention. I also know that you are tired. Really tired. You are also probably lonely at times and unsure of just about everything you are doing.
If this is you, I can help you destress. Together we will create a self-compassion plan to ease your symptoms of anxiety and/or depression to allow you to grow into your new role as a mother in the way that looks best for YOU. .
Burnout is scary, and frustrating but I see it as an opportunity for growth.
Here is what I have to offer:
Education and evidenced-based, practical tools to help you recover from feelings of overwhelm and stress.
HOPE and SUPPORT
Insight as to how experiencing burnout can benefit you.
A invitation into your heart space to see what is out of balance and a what part of us is craving change.
Reconnection with your life’s mission so you can take a close look at the cause of your big feelings and make changes that best align with your core values.
Recovering from stress, overwhelm, anxiety and burnout will allow you to live an empowered and more full life. You can be the mom you always hoped to become. You can learn to TRUST YOURSELF, while feeling energized with a sense of purpose.
Mama, you are worthy of love and support. I am honored to sit alongside you on this wild ride called Motherhood.
‘You are not just a person. You are a place. You are someone’s home. You are a mother.”
