Thrive in Parenthood · 12-week group course
Feel like yourself again. And enjoy being a parent while you're at it.
A 12-week online course from itsme, life coaching for mums. You'll meet weekly with a small group of up to five mums, with three private 1:1 sessions with me along the way.
Is this you?
You adore your children, but parenting feels more draining than joyful.
You're always giving, and somewhere along the way you've lost touch with who you are.
You feel guilty for struggling, even though you know something needs to change.
You miss the version of you who felt more alive and more sure of where she was going.
Thrive in Parenthood isn't about changing your children or learning a new parenting technique. It's twelve weeks that are just for you.

How the twelve weeks work
9 small-group sessions, about 90 minutes each, live on Zoom
3 private 1:1 sessions with me, 90–120 minutes each, booked at times that suit you
A maximum of five mums, so everyone has space to be heard
Every group session is recorded, so if you miss one, it's sent to you
The group and the private sessions do different jobs. In the group, you realise you're far from the only one feeling this way, and you learn a lot from each other. In the 1:1 sessions, we work on what's specific to you, including anything that has been holding you back for years.

What it was like for other mums
"The course has been truly transformational – not just for me, but for our entire family… It feels as if I have been given the biggest gift, but it's one which I had all along – I only needed the right help to find it!"— Catherine, mum of two
"Week on week, I found myself smiling more in pure enjoyment of parenting and life itself."— Janine, mum of one
