Motherhood Unearthed

Clearing the path forward.

A curated online journey for the modern mother who realizes they get to decide what mothering looks like and is ready to consciously do so.

  • Motherhood Unearthed: Clearing the Path Forward’ is a curated online space, offering a live 5 week group or two hour masterclass, designed for the modern mother seeking a transformative journey of self-discovery, authenticity, and reclamation.

    In a world where the value, worth, and power of mothers has been obscured and oppressed for far too long, it’s common to feel as if you’re somehow “not enough.” Days can feel so overwhelming, drowning in all the noise from advice and “shoulds”. You might struggle to balance the different parts of yourself, feeling stretched across demands that leave little room to connect with who you were, are, and are becoming. Beneath it all, there’s a knowing that, with the right space, support, and connection within, you could navigate your experience with more confidence, freedom, and enjoyment — without the second-guessing and struggle.

    We invite you to be in community with other mothers who wish to explore the collective cultural and societal beliefs + expectations we carry, the psyche of the Mother, the emotional + spiritual journey and invitations of motherhood, and what embodying harmony + space within feels like. This space is for you to honestly reflect on your journey thus far, and to guide you through the messy middle as you step into all you are becoming, over and over again.

    Each topic we cover is designed to build a bridge within and with the world around you. Our embodied experience provides a guided pathway to reconnect and reclaim the truest version of yourself, deconstruct and release societal expectations & the overculture, embrace and honor the rite of passage from Maiden to Mother, and foster deep self-compassion + trust within.

    'Motherhood Unearthed' beckons you to awaken your heart + inner authority, release what holds you back, and rediscover the depths of your authentic and ever evolving self.

  • We believe presence and heart centered mothering is possible through having the map and tools needed to carry out our our own inner work throughout our day to day lives. Our mission is to provide the map + tools required for any stage and in any season of motherhood, and to create a stable and compassionate foundation within for mothers to remember your true worth, strength, power, and voices so you may lead guide, and mother yourself along with your children.

    We are dedicated to reclaiming the journey from Maiden to Mother, this rite of passage, in an authentic and meaningful way to you. In a society where this transition isn’t acknowledged, honored, or even understood, the mother’s psyche and spirit are hindered and even harmed. We believe this right of passage has the potential to liberate us, reclaim parts of ourselves, and commune with the wise woman within. 

    We are dedicated to honoring the liminal space - that sacred threshold between what was and what is becoming. By fostering a safe and nurturing community that provides transformative + indispensable tools, we aim to create a space where mothers can freely and explore and navigate from their own inner voice, the profound shifts of motherhood with grace, authenticity, and empowerment. We acknowledge the weight of societal expectations and the intergenerational patterns of mothering that can influence and sometimes burden mothers during this pivotal life stage.

    Our intention is to facilitate a journey that unpacks, embraces, and empowers your unique experience on your ever-evolving journey between the intersection of all parts of you, and you as Mother. Our intention is for each mother who joins us in this space to clear the old and outdated, strengthen self-compassion and trust within, embrace the liminal, stand rooted and strong in their center, and emerge with a deep sense of peace and inner authority.

  • This offering is for mothers 6 months + beyond postpartum, whether it’s your first baby or not, as we are a new mother with every new child. 

    We chose 6 months as the entry point because we have experienced both personally and professionally that prior to this time, mothers are at their most vulnerable, and are still a dyad with baby, and likely do not have the bandwidth or capacity to dive deep into other realms. 

    We believe that all mothers can reclaim the metamorphosis from maiden to mother, and require heartfelt and empowering support to navigate the in-betweens, constant change within themselves and their child(ren), as well as finding their authentic voice and inner authority as Mother. And yet, there is very limited understanding, support, and resources available for us.

    Motherhood Unearthed seeks to bridge this gap by guiding mothers to trust their own inner wisdom as they learn to mother both themselves and their children.

you will walk forward with

RECLAMATION

of your inner child, authentic voice, inner authority, personal integrity, values, presence, wisdom, and TRUE, unshakable POWER.

INSIGHT

on the cultural, personal, psychological, emotional, spiritual, and collective influences at play that impact how you navigate motherhood (Matresence). A better understanding of where you are on the map, new ways to see + perceive yourself + your role as Mother while traversing each new frontier, liminal space, and transition.

INNER AUTHORITY

INDISPENSABLE TOOLS

accessible, practical, and ever present tools to add to your inner resources + support system so you may mother yourself and honor yourself amidst the ebb and flow of day to day life and through the major shifts and metamorphosis that motherhood brings.

through the inner experience of

Body based Somatic Practices

Many moms experience a paradox in motherhood: while their bodies become a vessel deeply attuned to the needs of their child, they often feel overstimulated and disconnected from their own sense of embodiment—almost "bodyless"— like their body no longer belongs to them amidst the constant demands of caregiving. Body-based somatic practices help mothers regulate their nervous systems and reconnect with their body’s innate wisdom. By learning to listen to and honor their body’s signals with kindness and compassion, mothers can better meet their own needs and, in turn, show up more fully for themselves and their families.

Seasons of Matrescence

Motherhood is a constantly evolving journey, and the Seasons of Matrescence model created by Nikki McChanon, serves as a cyclical framework to guide and ground you through the continual shifts of becoming and being a mother. Just as nature moves through seasons of growth, rest, renewal, and transformation, so too does your experience of motherhood. This model reflects these natural rhythms, helping you see where you are in your unique journey.

The mantra “this is temporary” applies not only to your child’s growth but to your own development as well. You are changing with your little one, responding to each new stage, which can sometimes feel disorienting. The Seasons of Matrescence gives context and meaning to these changes, helping you see your experience within the themes of each season.

Conscious Storytelling

Storytelling is perhaps one of the most ancient methods for us to process, integrate, make meaning, and gain wisdom from our experience. And while we believe whole heartedly in the power of story, we also are aware of how unconscious storytelling, or perpetuating harmful, limiting, and illusory stories does not support true reclamation and inner authority. In this space, we aim to share our stories with honesty + authenticity while also consciously choosing which stories we want to take with us, leave behind, or create anew.

Meditation + Breath

As mothers, we crave more presence. Often times, mothers feel as though this deep desire is overtaken by endless demands, “have to’s” and needs. Connecting with your breath + meditation are the most potent antidotes to reclaiming your attention, focus, power of observation, inner vision, and energy. Befriending your breath, learning how to observe your own thoughts and patterns, and using inner vision to unearth your truth and remain connected to the present moment.

Your breath and moments of meditation are two of the most powerful tools to anchor you into yourself + present moment, and are sure to be an invaluable companion on your motherhood journey.

The Journey

What is The Journey?

We begin January 22nd, meeting each Wednesday at 12pm EST, through February 19th, 2025.

Motherhood Unearthed: Clearing the Path Forward | the Journey, is a curated online 5 week journey designed for the modern mother seeking a transformative inner experience of self-discovery, authenticity, and reclamation. This embodied experience provides a guided pathway to reconnect and reclaim the truest version of yourself, deconstruct and release societal expectations + the overculture, embrace and honor the rite of passage from Maiden to Mother, and foster deep self-compassion and trust within. Be welcomed into a supportive and conscious community of mothers as you navigate the intricate balance between personal fulfillment and motherhood.

Each week we cover a different element of inner work that continues to build upon itself, laying a new conscious foundation from which you can more confidently let go of the old and step into who you are becoming, and mother yourself with compassion at every new threshold you cross through on your unique motherhood journey.

Through dynamic discussions and embodiment practices during our live group sessions, combined with the PDF downloads imbued with deeper exploration + tools, you will decide for yourself what is worth carrying forward, how to let go of what isn’t, and cultivate the courage to trust your own inner voice and guidance along each twist and turn.

The five sessions at a glance

We will meet every Wednesday over lunch from 12:00- 1:30pm EST from January 22 - February 19th, 2025

The steps (sessions) you will be guided through on this curated journey together are intended to embody a full circle cycle for you to call upon for changes + challenges big and small as you walk your path of motherhood.

1. Ground

Wednesday, January 22 | 12:00- 1:30pm EST

Intention: To bring awareness to the present moment, and foster a connection with the power of your presence. This session is intended to create a safe space for participants to reflect on their unique journey to and through becoming a mother, to explore the often overlooked major initiation into this profoundly transformational role, and how it casts us into a liminal space. We will explore the liminal space of mothering, what it means, and how we can actually leverage this space to be in a creative + empowering process with the mother we are becoming + wish to be.

2. Awaken

Wednesday, January 29 | 12:00- 1:30pm EST

Intention: To unearth and reconcile prior expectations with the current reality. This session guides participants to question both the cultural (and internalized) expectations of motherhood placed upon us and the pressures that we place upon ourselves. We will honor the transformative transition from maiden to mother (Matrescence) as a rite of passage, acknowledge both the ‘Gold and Grief’ experienced, and take time to begin to identify for yourself what is vital, enlivening, and expansive for you as Mother.

3. Release

Wednesday, February 5 | 12:00- 1:30pm EST

Intention: To learn the art and power of letting go, understand the real nature of this nuanced art (and tool) and facilitate true release of what no longer serves you in order to clear the path forward. This session supports participants to cultivate grace and compassion for the ongoing process of reconnecting with the self while encouraging participants to sit in the liminal space, acknowledging and releasing any attachments to outdated narratives or beliefs that cause internal discord and suffering.

4. Gather

Wednesday, February 12 | 12:00- 1:30pm EST

Intention: To develop tools and clarity to feel resourced. Set intentions to confidently move forward on your path and all that you are becoming.. This session provides practical guidance for tapping into intuition to tend to the intricate balance between personal fulfillment and the demands of motherhood. Gather only that which you intentionally wish to take forward.

5. Integrate

Wednesday, February 19 | 12:00- 1:30pm EST

Intention: To ritualize and honor the shifts and learnings that have taken place throughout this journey + cycle of change. This closing session focuses on integrating newfound awareness and personal growth, providing a sense of celebration for the transformative journey undertaken, and to move forward with a reclamation of your power + truth.

Why take this journey for yourself?

We can create a lot of stories about ourselves, our worth, our strength, our abilities, and our direction during any big transition, especially one of this magnitude. Often times these stories are born from self criticism and judgement and feeling as though we are failing or falling short. And often times these stories are created + experienced silently within - having huge impacts on our perception of ourselves, our fulfillment in motherhood, and how we experience our life + children. If left unchallenged, these stories, or takeaways, we are telling ourselves about ourselves or our children become the foundation in which we are choosing, acting, and reacting from in Motherhood. This is the harm of being alone in our inner processing + navigating rites of passage in a silo, that require guidance, wisdom, compassion, and support from outside of ourself.

This is why we believe so deeply in the power of this work + why we created this space: to be in community, to boldly challenge the stories we hear + the stories we tell, to unearth the wisdom of Mother, to understand + accept what is just a normal challenge of motherhood vs. something that requires attention to shift or heal.

This massive transition from maiden to mother has the potential to be the most powerful and expansive journey if we have a map for our inner world, are supported + resourced, are in community, bring wisdom to our experience, and learn how to mother ourselves with kindness and compassion along the way.

We believe that each mother’s wisdom tells her that to mother consciously, you must attend to your psyche, body and spirit and create time for reflection and going in to listen.

There is no more valuable and indispensable journey you can take for yourself than to feel internally resourced, understood, and supported in your emotional, psychological, physical, and spiritual transformation, have tools to come up out of the blindness of day-to-day tasks, and be with your life, yourself, and your children with honesty and compassion.

Your inner journey awaits, and we are here to give you tools and the space to cultivate the pathways within to authentically mother yourself and your children through all of the seasons to come.

Ultimately this journey is not really just for ourselves, but for our children. To take our own inner journey creates a path of love, liberation and authenticity for them. And together, one conscious mother at a time, we are creating a more loving, liberated and conscious world.

Get to know your guides.

A little bit about who we are personally and professionally, and why we created this space for mothers.

your Matrescence Guide and new go to for British slang and snacks. After a decade of working in specialist mental health services and having 2 kids of her own, she answered the call to support women navigate the push and pull of motherhood. After learning about Matrescence, the transformative process of becoming a mother, she just knew she wanted to share the wisdom of honoring this forgotten rite of passage and became a certified Seasons of Matrescence Guide. She believes to truly create empowered mothers, we need to understand and honor all the changes that take place when your name becomes mama and provide guidance that allows you to live in alignment with what truly matters to you. Louise leads both remote and in person circles year round, offers one on one coaching to mamas, and leads ceremonies to support mamas during transition. You can learn more about Louise and her work at https://www.mappingmatrescence.com

Meet Louise,

your energetic + psycho-spiritual Guide and go to for a good laugh or good cry. After receiving her Masters of Science in Counseling Psychology (2012), Nicole worked in a traditional psych setting for a few years before setting off to study the world of energy healing, meditation, spirituality, and true transformation. She currently works with clients all over the world, offers monthly guided meditations, and holds energy healing trainings. After her daughter was born in 2022, and experiencing for herself the insane challenges, day to day reality, and potential for personal transformation of motherhood, she became wildly passionate about not only supporting mamas to survive, but to truly thrive + reclaim their inner authority and authenticity in a world that has not yet witnessed a truly empowered collective Mother. She is on a mission to bring her masterful understanding + work with the psyche, energy medicine, consciousness, and true change, to clear the path for the modern mother, and thus our children, and our world. You can learn more about Nicole and her work at https://www.boundlessbeings.com

Meet Nicole,

This collaboration was born from Nicole and Louise's shared mission to extend support beyond the first year of motherhood, recognizing the transformative power found in the tender 'messy middle' of the mother-becoming journey. Their vision is to equip all mothers with the tools + inner map to challenge and unearth the stories that hold you back from being who you truly are and are becoming. The combination of their professional work + ability to lead groups creates a masterful weaving that touches on all aspects and realms of motherhood to truly support and guide you through the complexities and seasons on your unique journey.
