Mothering Without Our Mothers Workshop


The Mothering Without Our Mothers Workshop serves mothers and mothers-to-be who have lost their own mothers due to death and have entered/are entering the sacred circle of motherhood without their mothers available for love, nurturing, and guidance.

This eight-week workshop will provide guided discussion and exploration of the myriad of emotions and experiences that accompany motherless motherhood.  Each meeting will allow mothers to share their experiences, ask questions, nurture themselves and each other, and examine the loss of their mothers in a safe environment. Some sessions will include weekly exercises that will be provided to attendees to be completed by the following week.

Please join us as we share our stories and grow as a community of motherless mothers. This workshop is open to women who have experienced their loss 2 or more years ago. In order to keep the space intimate, this workshop is limited to a maximum of 12 participants.
