MotherCircle
Women circling is an ancient technology.
It’s time we came home to the wisdom that resides in all of us.
I remember feeling isolated in motherhood - not just for the ‘normal’ reasons, but because I’d been re-born myself and had no frame of reference to make any sense of it.
In this 8 week journey, we will integrate our personal stories, find hidden meaning and build language for what we’ve been through. For women & mothers, coming together in ceremony and creating a sense of connection is integral to these times. The antidote to the disconnection and pain of the world right now, is to gather and learn from each other and repair our culture through sharing our story.
Like the wise women did, long ago.
These sessions are a mixture of learning, feeling, and witnessing.
Together, we will walk through the unseen arc of motherhood, and build the village we need.
This space is for you if:
You crave a space to connect with other women
You recognise your biological and heartfelt need for ritual
Your transition to motherhood felt huge and you are confused as to why no one else is talking about this stuff
You’re still healing from birth, loss & early motherhood experiences
You know there are deeper layers to becoming a mother, more than just getting a baby
You birthed during the pandemic and missed out on the depth of care that you needed
You love to circle, or you’ve never been in a circle environment before
You are pregnant, a new mother, an older mother, a grandmother or empty nester
You are passionate about building a culture where womanhood and mothering matters
What will the course cover?
Join us for an 8 week journey into the unseen parts of motherhood :: physically, sexually, spiritually, emotionally & archetypically.
If you have been a part of women’s circles before, you may find this more structured.
If you haven’t circled before, you will appreciate that structure.
It’s more than just a sharing circle.
You are invited into a meaningful journey, that is lovingly facilitated & layered with teachings, practices and opportunities to share your story. The practices and models we explore are deeply rooted in somatics & the work of Kimberly Ann Johnson.
I am an accredited facilitator of this model of MotherCircle, designed by Kimberly Ann Johnson and Jessica Connelly.
I studied (by candlelight in the wee hours due to the time difference!) throughout 2023 and it’s now my joy to be the first Australian facilitator of this important work.
Put together the pieces of your story and feel more whole.
Coming Feb 2025!

These sessions touched and uncovered parts of myself I didn't even know where there. It felt safe the whole time, thanks to Lucy and our wonderful group. I loved the somatic exercises and feel more safe in my body."

As a midwife, I've seen what birth trauma does to the body-mind. All women should have spaces to integrate and talk, to make sense of things. All women should do this course. "
