MotherHeld

A 12 month closed format, online circle for mothers who want depth, connection, and a place to return to themselves

Becoming a Mother changes you.

But most of us move through these changes without the space, time, or support to actually make sense of them. We’re expected to just keep going — to hold everyone and everything, to say “I’m doing fine,” to be the steady one.

And somewhere along the way, many mothers feel like parts of themselves go quiet.

I want MotherHeld to be the place where you find your voice again. Where you remember who you are, honour who you’ve been, and celebrate who you are becoming.

MotherHeld is a year-long online circle for mothers who are craving a slowing down, who want to learn about and create ritual, sit with themselves and others, and reclaim what’s real and alive inside them.

This circle is a closed group, which means its the same women all the way through. We all start together in April 2026 and complete our circle journey together in May 2027.

MotherHeld offers a consistent place to land and a rhythm you can trust.

It’s a space for depth, reflection, and honest connection with other mothers who get it.

The focus is not on “upskilling” or becoming a “better” mother… I have faith that you’re already a fabulous mother.

It’s about connecting back to you.

What to expect within MotherHeld

  • (2nd Sunday of each Month, allocate 3 hours but circle could last less than this. The buffer is useful for your transition back into family life)

    Each circle has a theme that speaks directly to the lived experience of mothers and women — identity shifts, anger, boundaries, lineage, grief, joy, self-mothering, partnership, and more.

    Every gathering includes:

    • an arrival ritual (simple, accessible, grounding)

    • a beautiful question for reflection

    • gentle guided journaling or somatic noticing

    • a witnessing circle (no advice, no fixing — just presence)

    • a closing ritual to help you integrate

  • ((These will occur on a Wednesday morning close to the dates of the solstice and equinox.)

    Across the year, we gather four extra times to mark the turning points of the seasons and to reflect on the meaning present for you at these times. These sessions are shorter and will run for an hour. These dates will not always fall on the exact seasonal dates due to keeping them occurring on a Wednesday.

    These rituals help you pause long enough to notice:

    • what you’re carrying

    • what you’re shedding

    • what’s growing

    • what you’re longing for

  • This is hosted on the Circle platform, which also has an app for ease of use. All circles are also hosted here in our community live room, as is a calendar of all the circle dates.

    This is where you can stay connected with me and the other mothers in our group and receive small, simple invitations to help you stay connected to yourself and your personal process throughout the year.

    The invitations could be in the form of :

    • a monthly Beautiful Question

    • a short reflection prompt

    • a gentle ritual you can adapt to your own life

    • an audio practice

    Just enough to keep you anchored.

Dates for MotherHeld

MotherHeld is a circle for every kind of mother at any stage of parenting..

I created Motherheld for the mothers who are carrying a lot — who are thoughtful, tired, curious, stretched, craving something real, and ready to connect deeply with others on the same path.

Women who are rebuilding parts of themselves they didn’t realise motherhood would shake. Women who are angry and tender in equal measure. Women who dare to want a place to land where they don’t have to pretend and can show up as their true selves.

I created this for the questioning women, mothers who may have lost touch with themselves, who want meaning, who have a lot to say but need help finding their voices and those who do have the words but no safe spaces to voice them in.

Women who don’t want ANOTHER course, but instead just want to be.. alongside others who want the same so they can all find their way back to themselves.

If you read that and felt even a small yes in your body, you’re exactly the kind of woman MotherHeld has been made for.

It’s also important to name what this space isn’t: it’s not therapy, parenting advice, education or structured learning, quick fixes, constant content, spiritual instruction, or a fast transformation.

You don’t need to be spiritual or “woo”, have a confident voice, a particular parenting style, or a willingness to bare your soul on day one to sit in this circle. You don’t need to be “evolved” or have your life “sorted”.

Motherheld is slow, steady, and relational.

Founder price
Regular price
Community This tier is here to keep the space accessible. Choose this tier if money feels tight or closely managed. You're likely needing to think carefully about spending, prioritising essentials, or feeling the impact of one income, parental leave, or rising costs.
$70 per month
$97 per month
Standard This reflects the actual cost of the offering. Choose this tier if your basic needs are comfortably met and you have some flexibility in your budget. You can pay for support like this without it creating strain, even if you're still thoughtful about your spending. Many mothers will find themselves here.
$90 per month
$127 per month
Sustaining This tier helps make the lower-cost spaces possible. Choose this tier if you have financial stability and breathing room — where paying at this level doesn't impact your ability to meet your needs or enjoy your life. You're contributing not only to your own experience, but to the accessibility of this space for other mothers.
$110 per month
$150 per month

Your monthly price is locked in for the full year — April 2026 through to March 2027.
After the founding window closes, regular pricing applies.

Self-assessed pricing means you're invited to choose the tier that honestly reflects your current financial reality.

If something in you has been quietly saying yes as you've read this — trust that.

Motherheld opens in April 2026 and runs through to April 2027. Places are limited to keep the circle intimate.

This year long container is priced on a self-assessed sliding scale. Please read each tier carefully and choose the one that genuinely reflects your financial situation. Every woman in the circle receives the same experience, the same presence, the same care. The tiers exist because financial capacity shouldn't determine who gets to be held.

Please choose honestly.

Please note: When you join MotherHeld, you’re committing to the full year of circles.

I have opted for a monthly payment rather than a full upfront payment to support accessibility, however, the monthly payment reflects a payment plan for the full annual fee rather than a month-to-month membership.

Why I Created MotherHeld

I've sat in and led circles with other women and mothers, and witnessed shifts and evolution that therapy alone just can’t match. There's something about being witnessed by other women who are in it; who are tired and tender and complicated in the same ways you are, that goes deeper than therapeutic tools and modalities.

I created MotherHeld because I have worked with mothers who were doing the inner work but were at a loss for true community and the benefits it provides. Who had the self-awareness, the language, the willingness, but nowhere to bring it.

Thousands of years of human history and evolution tell us what I know to be true; that healing was never meant to be a solo project. We have been sold a particular story — that growth is individual, that we pull ourselves together privately, that needing others is weakness. That story serves a system that benefits from women being isolated, self-reliant, and quietly getting on with it.

MotherHeld is a small, deliberate act of turning away from that way of being and thinking. Of remembering something older — that women have always healed in community, witnessed each other through transitions, held each other through the unpredictable parts of life. This is sacred and cannot be replicated by a course, a podcast, or a one-hour appointment.

This is that place. A consistent space across a whole year, with the same women, building something that takes time to build: trust, depth, and the particular relief of being known to others and to yourself.

MotherHeld asks something of you that many things in this season of your life don't: to actually show up for yourself.

Most mothers are extraordinarily good at showing up for everyone else. What's harder is treating our own nourishment with the same seriousness. Something always comes up. We're tired. We tell ourselves we'll do it next time.

I want to name this honestly before you join: there are no replays. What happens in the circle lives in the circle. And your presence matters for the integrity of the group, and most importantly, for your own personal experience of self discovery throughout the year long time we’ll be together.

Joining MotherHeld is an agreement with yourself. That for one year, one evening a month, you are going to choose yourself. That you're going to protect that time the way you protect everyone else's commitments that feel unmovable.

If you know that this is something you need right now, I want to give you a nudge to take up space and claim this time for yourself.

I encourage you to treat MotherHeld circles as though you are attending an in-person circle. Organise a sitter, or lock in the calendar of circles with your partner, a friend, or another family member so that you can have this uninterrupted time for yourself.

A Note on Intention, Presence & Carving Out Time

The commitment & structure
Motherheld is a year-long experience. When you join, you're committing to 12 months of gatherings.
One 2–3 hour live gathering each month, four additional seasonal gatherings across the year, and a private online space (Circle app) for connection and reflection between sessions.
No. Sessions are live only. This helps protect the intimacy of the space and supports consistent presence within the group.
You're always welcome to return the following month. The space is ongoing and each gathering stands on its own.
It's important that you commit to the full duration of each circle you attend — for your own benefit, but also for the benefit of others. It is disruptive to have people joining late or leaving early, just as it would be for an in-person circle. I ask that you honour yourself and others by attending on time and for the entirety of the circle. If you can't attend a full circle one month, you can always join the next one.
This is a big yes. This isn't a drop-in work call or masterclass — we are creating sacred space. In a circle it really matters that we can see each other, so we know who we are communing with and to build familiarity in our community.
Time, energy & capacity
You don't need to arrive with anything prepared. You're welcome to come as you are — quiet, tired, unsure — and take what you need from the space.
No. You can share if you want to, but there is no expectation. Being present and listening is enough.
The nature of the space
No. MotherHeld is not therapy. It's a facilitated group space for reflection, connection, and being witnessed.
No. There are no modules, lessons, or content to complete. The focus is on slowing down and being with your experience, rather than learning or achieving.
Each gathering includes guided reflection, space for sharing (if you choose), and being witnessed within the group. The structure is gentle but held.
Safety & suitability
MotherHeld is for mothers who are wanting a space to pause, reflect, and feel less alone in their experience.
MotherHeld can be supportive, but it's not a substitute for individual therapy or crisis support. If you're needing more personalised or clinical care, additional support may be important alongside this space.
Practical considerations
Because of the nature of the space, I ask that you dedicate this time to yourself without children present. If you have a babe in arms who needs your touch or feeding, of course that is fine. What I'm wanting to avoid is frequent disruptions such as screens turning off and on, children moving across screens, or you needing to get up and down frequently. This is as much for you as it is for others in the circle.
The entire MotherHeld space is hosted in Circle. There you will find a community chat space, details about the space, our calendar, and all call links.
Pricing & access
The tiered pricing model allows mothers to choose a level that reflects their financial reality, while helping keep the space accessible to a wider community.
No. The model is based on trust.
No. MotherHeld is a year-long commitment. Monthly payments are a payment plan rather than a month-to-month membership. Please be aware that there are no refunds.
