Will I belong here?

When I tell people I'm starting Mom Circles, one of the first questions is usually: "What happens in the meetings?" It's a good question. But I think there's a better one. What kind of community are we building? Because you can gather women in a room, but that doesn't automatically create belonging. You can have thoughtful conversation. That doesn't automatically create trust. You can share parenting advice. That doesn't automatically help someone feel known. I've been thinking a lot about that. If we're going to rebuild the village, I don't want to recreate busy calendars or another thing to keep up with. I want to create a place that women genuinely look forward to returning to. A place where you don't have to arrive with the right words. Where no one expects you to have motherhood figured out. Where some weeks you'll come carrying encouragement, and other weeks you'll come needing to borrow a little hope from someone else. Both belong. Here's what I hope you'll find inside a Mom Circle: • Curiosity instead of certainty. You won't be asked to fit in. You'll simply be welcomed. Every circle will be intentionally facilitated because healthy communities don't happen by accident. They're tended. Just like a garden. Just like a friendship. Just like a family. Some gatherings will be full of laughter. Others will hold grief. Questions. Transitions. The messy middle. Nothing has gone wrong when those things show up. That's part of what community is for. Because I don't think we're just looking for people to sit beside. I think we're looking for people who will remember our stories. Who notice when we're quieter than usual. Who celebrate with us. Who remind us who we are when we've forgotten for a little while. That's the kind of village I want to help build. One conversation at a time. If that sounds like something your heart has been longing for, I'd love to invite you into a Mom Circle. Applications are now open, and I'd be honored to save you a seat. |

ReaderA template is a great starting point, which is why I LOVE seeing people like you get the postpartum planning template and be intentional about starting conversations with your partner and planning for the big changes ahead. What I've found now from working with hundreds of couples and new parents is that we go through similar rhythms and seasons, but need different tools and approaches to ride the waves. That's why I offer Prep for Us. I have room for 2 more couples to start with me the...

They were not handed a registry, a parenting book, a calendar full of appointments, a few apps, and the quiet expectation that if they were prepared enough, organized enough, grateful enough, and “strong” enough, they would be fine. But that is what so many mothers have been handed. And even with more information than ever, so many moms still feel alone. Because mothers do not need more noise. We need connection. We need real conversation. We need women in different stages sitting together...
