I love to help mothers rediscover themselves after having children. Women often lose themselves for a period of time when they devote their whole selves to the new role of being a mother. This time can be likened to walking through a fog, a sleepy hazy fog where life is full of challenges and responsibilities. There is no time for thinking about yourself, not to mention actually doing anything for yourself. Your temperament may have changed, and you may be living a highly emotional charged life full of mood swings and can witness yourself acting cranky and snappy with those closest to you. I see you! I get it!
This is all perfectly normal because you have stopped minding yourself. Your priorities have changed. Your responsibilities have increased. Your career path may need altering due to childminding desires and capabilities. Mothers are so brilliant at minding everyone else, but by forgetting about themselves, nobody is winning truly! I help women find clarity when that motherhood fog seems too thick to focus on anything other than the next nappy change, bottle feed, sleep time, taxi ride, play-date, dinner time, doctors appointment etc etc etc... You don't realize how much happier life can be if you adapt this approach, just small little tweaks here and there can make the world of difference, believe me - I have been there!
I re-educated myself in Applied Psychology (Positive and Behavioural Coaching) and have set up this holistic wellness practice for women and mothers.
I am a firm advocate for proactively looking after your wellness, rather than reactively having to take care of an illness because you spread yourself too thin for too long. Life can be adapted so that family, career and happiness can all be managed in a far more enjoyable way. Responsibilities and tasks are still prioritized, but there is space for more enjoyment, love, laughter, fun and passion for you.
If you could benefit from some help ensuring that you are proactively maintaining a life full of wellness, rather than one day having to respond to an illness - then I look forward to working supportively and closely with you!
