THE WORK

waitlist

you’ve learned the strategies and read the books already.

you've spent this whole season learning your toddler: their brain, big feelings, what they need and when and why.

you show up for them every single day.

but who's doing that for you?

eight weeks of being guided + a container for your own emotional development.

“before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water. after enlightenment, chop wood, carry water.” before the work, make snacks and manage big feelings.

toddlerhood is a season that asks more of you than almost any other.

that part isn’t changing. but how you live inside of it does.

everyone tells you to do the work. nobody tells you what the work actually is.

THE WORK:

    • what it actually looks like, sounds like, feels like to be emotionally mature.

    • the difference between regulating and suppressing, and practices to FEEL your feelings / stop intellectualizing.

    • start noticing the ways you've been distracting from hard feelings: scrolling, over-researching, constantly thinking you have to stay busy.

    • the three core tenets of self-compassion, and how to work with them from within the life you already have.

    • this is where we name the perfectionism, and learn the difference between guilt and shame.

    • you meet with your inner critic and learn how to stop letting it make decisions for you.

    • emotional honesty is the foundation that every other emotional skill is built from.

    • naming what you're feeling with more clarity than "fine" or "overwhelmed.”

    • learning how to be honest with your hard moments: the fears, the anxious spirals, the real emotions you’re experiencing.

    • you get to be held while you feel it, and not judged for it.

    • build your capacity to hold your toddler's emotions AND your own.

    • how to regulate your emotions by moving them through your body, and getting unstuck from the loops you’ve been in for years.

    • taking great care of yourself when you have time alone, but more importantly, when your toddler in the room with you (and i promise i won't tell you to just take a deep breath).

    • realizing the gifts of this season, and what your toddler is here to teach you about your own emotional world.

    • the mirrors have been the single biggest source of my own emotional growth over the past ten years.

    • the lessons toddlerhood is designed to teach, and your opportunity to learn alongside your toddler: autonomy, play, boundaries, co-regulation, + more.

    • we go back to learn how your nervous system got patterned in your own toddler years, name it, and change how you respond to big feelings now.

    • why you struggle with your toddler’s big feelings and normal toddler behaviors.

    • change your generational patterns by doing the work with your unconscious patterns + reactions.

    • there are 10,000 ways to raise a toddler well. authentic motherhood takes you out of comparison with everyone else in your life.

    • this is where you lean deeply into your values + desires, and make decisions based on what you want this season to be for YOU.

    • we re-build your self-trust after outsourcing your judgment to books and algorithms.

    • what it means to be a villager right now, and practices for finding your own village to be a part of. (there is no version of the mother you want to be who does all of it alone.)

    • the art of receiving: actually letting people help you, take care of you, give to you, because most of us have never let ourselves experience that.

JOIN THE WAITLIST

and after the eight weeks…

the work won’t end. twice a year, everyone who's been through the cohort gets to join a live call with me, and we talk through what's been coming up for you, what you're working through now, and whatever you want to know.

a place to return to, for as long as you want it.
