Circle of Moms is a safe, welcoming space for women to gather together and discuss the not-so-easy parts of motherhood. If becoming a mom has been harder than you thought it would be, or you’re struggling to find your sense of self, know that other women feel the same way. Many moms wonder how much to reveal when asked, “How are you?”. This is your place to finish the sentence after you say, “fine”.
You may be struggling with a perinatal mood disorder, or have overcome one and want to support other struggling moms. Perhaps you’re experiencing breastfeeding troubles, a colicky baby, relationship strains, dynamics with in-laws, financial stress or lack of your inner compass. Or maybe you’re just feeling the “bigness” of new motherhood.
Circle of Moms gives you a space to share stories, build your village of other supportive moms, discuss realistic expectations, learn when to seek help, and develop strategies for self care.
The wonderful Elizabeth Hopfinsperger RN facilitates this every-other-Monday group. Elizabeth is the president of Jenny’s Light and the mom to a beautiful boy whose arrival brought on a less-than-beautiful bout with postpartum depression and anxiety. Join her for refreshments and the community of other women in this baby-friendly space.
Pre-registration is encouraged, but walk-ins and last-minute-deciders are always welcome! Bring your baby or leave her at home – your choice.
