Resending: A steadier start to January (for you, or for him)


Chels + Mike | Postpartum Together

January 7th, 2026!

January doesn’t need another goal.
It needs support.

Most parents don’t enter a new year lacking effort or desire. They enter it tired. Carrying patterns they didn’t choose. Reacting more than they want to. Wondering why things feel harder than they should.

What actually helps isn’t pushing harder.
It’s having the right guide and the right people around you.

That’s why we’re opening two small, intentional group experiences this January—one for dads, one for moms. Separate spaces. Same direction.

Steady Dads

Steady Dads is for men who want to be a steady presence at home, but were never shown how.
Men learn with and from other men, with real tools they can actually use.

Confident Mom Reset

Confident Mom Reset is for women who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stretched thin—and want to come back to themselves without adding another thing to manage.

These aren’t lectures. They’re not therapy. And they’re not about fixing anyone.

They’re about learning how to show up with more steadiness, clarity, and self-trust—inside real life.

Here’s what past participants have shared:

“I didn’t realize how reactive I was until I wasn’t anymore. My house feels calmer and so do I.”
“For the first time, I felt like I wasn’t doing this alone. I stopped spiraling and started trusting myself again.”
“This wasn’t about being told what I was doing wrong. It was about finally understanding how to show up better.”

If you’re craving a January that feels different (not because you forced it, but because you were supported) this is your invitation.

Start the year with a guide.
Start it with people who get it.
Start it steadier than you’ve ever felt before.

I want to share something I see often, and I say it with a lot of tenderness. When a mom keeps pushing herself to the bottom of the list, something usually starts to grow in the background. Not all at once.Quietly. It can look like resentment that doesn’t have a clear target.A numbness where joy used to be.A sense of being needed, but not really known. Most women don’t wake up one day and think, “I want a different life.” They wake up and realize they’ve been living on the sidelines of their...

A boarded-up window on a yellow wall

One of the biggest fears moms carry (even if they don’t say it out loud) is this: “If I start taking up more space, something will break.” Their relationship.Their family rhythm.The fragile balance they’ve worked so hard to hold together. So instead, they stay small.They stay quiet.They stay “fine.” Confident Mom Reset isn’t about blowing up your life or reinventing yourself. It’s about something much more grounded: Learning how to identify what actually fills your cup.Communicating it...

Many moms I talk to don’t actually lack support. They have partners who offer to take the kids.Friends who say, “Go, I’ve got this.”Moments in the week where, technically, time exists. And yet. They still don’t take it. 🤯 They wipe the counter instead.Fold one more load.Answer one more message.Tell themselves they’ll rest after everything else is done.(And then "done" never really comes. I don’t think this is a time problem.I think it’s a permission problem. Somewhere along the way, a lot of...
