MotherCircle for me is a place to get the support we need with the anxiety, loneliness and overwhelm of modern day mothering.
I was very alone in my journey into motherhood and that created a lot of anxiety and uncertainty, I simply had no place to land and make sense of what was happening to me.
My priorities had changed, my body had changed, my brain had changed, my desires had changed, what success was on any given day had changed... And yet parts of me struggled to let go of who I used to be, so I lived in a constant state of guilt, confusion, and inner conflict.
And all of this while at the same time experiencing the most powerful kind of love, of dedication and devotion I had ever felt in my life.
So I joined MotherCircle. Being with other mothers, hearing their stories, helped me to start putting the pieces of the puzzle together, helping me to feel less anxious and less alone.
My heart aches at the thought of other mothers struggling alone with the enormity of what is happening to them and the responsibility they bear for someone else’s life. I want mothers to have a space where their journey is celebrated regardless of how “dark”, and “difficult” and “underworld-y” that may be and I want to provide a map for mothers to navigate that journey into this new phase of their life.
We live in a culture where motherhood is done mostly alone or at best with a partner. That means that we are required to be everything at all times for our children, leaving us with little or nothing for ourselves.
When a baby is born a mother is also born and while we tend to the baby and all their needs we forget to tend to the mother with the same attention and dedication….
And what does it mean to tend to a woman whose identity is undergoing the most profound overhaul it will ever get?
Most of the time we are not even sure ourselves. This has a cost. For us as women, for our relationships and for our mothering. MotherCircle is a response to this and more…
Together we will reframe motherhood as a Rite of Passage.

We have a powerful opportunity to imagine the legacy we’d like to leave. We are shaped by our motherline and the mothers around us, and we can choose what we want to carry forward. Together we’ll Identify the values that we want to guide our mothering and shape our lineage.

Who is it for?
‘Mother’ is a broad term, and doesn’t only apply to recent mothers with newborns. MotherCircle is also open to mothers who:
All mothers, regardless of how you have come to motherhood and even if sadly you didn't get to hold your baby in your arms
Mothers at any stage of their motherhood journey, those who are still pregnant, those who had their children a long time ago (and maybe are even grandmothers already!) and everything in between
Mothers who want to dive deeper into their identity as a mother
Mothers who want community with other mothers to feel less alone
Mothers who are ready to embrace motherhood in all its aspects - the good, the bad and the ugly
Mothers who want to claim the value of mothers and with that help build MotherCulture.
I’m aware that as a new mum, it is very hard to find complete privacy for any length of time.
It is perfectly fine for mums to show up to calls with baby in arms, breastfeeding or with a sibling watching TV in the background!
