Mothering Without Our Mothers Workshop


The Mothering Without Our Mothers Workshop serves mothers of all ages and stages 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 six-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.

Please join us as we share our stories and grow as a community of motherless mothers. This workshop is open to women ages 19+ 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.

  • Week One: Sharing Her Story: Our Mothers’ Lives

  • Week Two: The Ripple Effect: Navigating Secondary Losses after the "Main Event" of Our Mother's Death

  • Week Three: Our Fathers (as fathers and grandfathers) & Other Familial Relationships After Loss

  • Week Four: Health Anxiety, Death anxiety, and What Is True Self-Care? 

  • Week Five: Our Mother’s Legacies: What We Inherited as Women and Mothers

  • Week Six: Bring Your Own Topic

$225 per person for the 6-week series; Mondays, 7-8:30pm CST, September 28 - November 2
