an online course to help you navigate the transition into motherhood with confidence and joy
When you had your baby, you expected some things would change.
But you might not have expected the ways you would change.
If you’re like most moms, you were under the impression motherhood would be magical.
You knew you’d be tired, of course, but beyond that? Things would feel natural. Even easy. You’d be head-over-heels for your baby the moment you laid eyes on them. You’d feel closer to your partner than ever before.
But that’s not exactly how it went down — and so you’ve been having some feelings. Big ones. Ugly ones. Sometimes scary ones…
…like grief and resentment. Anxiety and confusion. Anger, loneliness, and that one you’re feeling right now.
Plus guilt. So much guilt.
Listen closely now, OK? You’re not a ‘terrible’ mother for having these ‘bad’ feelings. You’re someone who’s had your whole world turned upside down — in both beautiful and brutal ways — by a tiny human who requires constant attention.
That’s not magical. That’s hard.

Transitioning to motherhood can be confusing and lonely, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
When moms say, “I don’t have time to take a course,” or “I shouldn’t spend this money on myself,” what they’re really saying is, “I don’t deserve this. But you do deserve it.
Just because you have a baby now doesn’t mean your wellbeing no longer matters. And the truth is, when you take better care of yourself, you’ll take way better care of your people.
Your needs matter. You matter.
[This course helped me] forgive myself for not “enjoying every minute” I also was relieved when I read that it was okay to mourn your old life. I felt so guilty that I missed my old life (independence), but hearing that that was normal really led to some powerful forgiveness.

“Dr. Ream’s “Keeping Mommy in Mind” class was an absolutely essential part of my healing and growth as a new mom! This class helped me understand and put words to the overwhelming feelings I was experiencing as a new mother. I was able to complete the course at my own pace and it gave me the opportunity to journal and reflect on specific topics before I followed up with my therapist for additional support. I continue to use the skills and understanding that I gained through this course to address the daily challenges and embrace the daily joys of motherhood!

Everything in this course was helpful...but the page on expectations/reality meant the most to me. Honestly, it had me in tears.
I knew the myths of motherhood, but this page showed me that many of my feelings were valid. It gave me some direction as to where all of my mom guilt came from. Then further challenged me to reflect on where these expectations came from - social mostly - and how much of a misconception it all was.
It was such a relief to find this program.
