Group Offerings
Book Club for Moms
Join Rochelle and other moms as we take a deep dive into motherhood while reading the book Mothershift by Canadian author Jessie Harrold. This group explores the changes women go through when they become a mom- physical, emotional, spiritual, and more. Being a mom is a tough job and comes with so many ups and downs. You are not alone if you have been feeling a bit lost. The good news is that we are supposed to feel lost. It is a normal and expected part of matrescence, however it is rarely talked about. The process of being lost is where we will eventually find ourselves. If you are a new mom or mom of young children, this group is for you! Babies are welcome to join.
