transformative self care for moms - by design
“I feel invisible”
My children were 4 and 1. I was married to a man that was terrified of my emotional depths, and used the withholding of love as a weapon. I was desperately attempting to fit into a box of a traditional housewife- and failing. I was not entirely clear on who I was before I became a mother, but after, I had become even more lost. I struggled to remember or create an identity outside of motherhood. There was a deep need to reconcile motherhood within me, to be able to integrate it into my identity…
I was told that I was experiencing postpartum depression. What I did not know at the time, was that the depression was a symptom, not the root cause. My needs were being neglected. I was trying to give from an empty cup.
I tried the “stay at home mom” route after my second child was born. My self-neglect escalated with doing things like eating my kids leftovers (instead of making myself a meal), not showering sometimes for an entire week. Endless diapers, endless laundry. I lived in a remote town with no internet service for months, and no cell phone service. I had no community, family or friends that lived within the state. My predominant feelings were loneliness, longing, anger and shame.
Sometimes we can get to a point where we are unable to feel joy anymore with our child(ren) because we are SO disconnected from ourselves. Please, if this is you, you are not alone and you should NOT feel ashamed. What I am sharing here may help you to understand why this may be happening.
In an attempt to reconnect with my true self, I enrolled in a hypnotherapy class, and opened up a can of worms to my unconscious as a result! The following months allowed me to begin to unravel what needed to change in my life.
Over the next several years, armed with new awareness, I took bold, scary action. I began listening to my heart. I began hearing my intuition. This resulted in many drastic life changes, including filing for divorce, becoming a single parent, losing 35 lbs, quitting smoking and launching my first online program for moms! I hired my first mentor and began playing guitar for the first time in over a decade.
This all didn’t happen overnight. It happened with a choice, every day. A willingness to be with the emotions as they arose and the key elements I have on offer for you within this program!
The core of Transformative Self Care for Moms is YOU. It is about shifting the focus to meet your needs. Often in the trenches of new motherhood we get lost. We need someone/something to help guide us back home to ourselves. I can be that guide - reminding YOU that you are actually the guide! Sounds paradoxical, but until we learn to trust ourselves, we will continue to seek externally for our answers.
What I would like to offer you is a Lighthouse. I came to see that there were 5 things missing in my life, that once I began cultivating them, catalyzed my transformation:
Self care
Compassion
healthy Boundaries
Asking/Support
Human Design
These 5 keys built my lighthouse. They are the pillars of my foundation.
This round of Transformative Self Care for Moms is special because I am incorporating Human Design! Human Design is a synthesis of science and spirit, using Quantum Physics, Chakras, DNA, Kabbalah, the Chinese I’Ching and Astrology. Merging esoteric wisdom with cutting edge science, human design gives a powerful map of our soul and personality. This tool will be used to deepen the results of empowerment, looking through the lens of your unique design.
So let me ask you -
Are you a mom who is looking to create more time, freedom and peace in your life?
Do you ever feel overwhelmed with the day to day responsibilities of motherhood and life?
Do you sometimes feel invisible, as if this motherhood thing is the most challenging work - yet don't feel acknowledged or appreciated at times?
Are you feeling anxiety, stress or irritability?
IF you can deeply resonate with what I just asked, let me ask you to IMAGINE:
* Being able to clearly communicate your needs to others in a way that is calm, confident and leaves you feeling full of gratitude and self respect.
* Having a daily practice that honors the woman, creative and SOUL essence that you are.
* Regularly taking time ( without feeling guilty) to take care of yourself, on all levels - physically, mentally and emotionally.
* Feeling more rested, more connected and ALIVE
* Your family reflects back to you the positive vibe you are creating - if mama ain't happy - NOBODY'S HAPPY!
If you are struggling with:
* Having enough time and energy to focus on your needs
* The ability to be present with your children
* Feelings of impatience and heightened sensitivity
* Knowing who you are as a mother and as a woman...motherhood has shaken up your sense of identity and you are ready to integrate
Then Transformative Self Care for Moms can definitely help you!
I am Alissa, single mother, musician and entrepreneur. My foray into the online coaching and teaching world began in 2015 with a burning desire to help moms. I knew I had what it took to teach and inspire, and I created what I felt was missing. I became the change I wished to see. Every time I run this program, it gives me so much joy to see women find themselves and begin to make bold changes! Thank you for being here and taking the time to read through to the end. I hope you join us this time around!

“… thank you for doing this work. I truly was lost after my son was born. Feeling like I lost myself, my peace, my body…this gave me a reason to get up and do something about how I was feeling. I inspired me to be kind to myself and love my day to day. Its all a journey...the people who remind us to breath, and feel it, are of utmost importance. Thank you for the spark…” - K.S. , United States
