Coaching for a happier journey through motherhood
Motherhood is a joyous journey but it comes with many challenges!
Motherhood has different challenges across the journey but if you are feeling a little overwhelmed, anxious, without a plan, or lacking in confidence you don’t have to cope alone. If you want to get back in control, feel empowered with a plan, get strategies for making a difference and have better work-life integration then get in touch.
I am passionate about supporting women through these challenges with coaching that provides a space to talk freely, understand emotions, find new ways of thinking and fresh ways forward.
Book a time in my diary that suits you and I’ll talk you through how coaching works and how you can make the changes you want in your life.
Coaching programmes that span the motherhood journey…
Prepare and relax ahead of the arrival.
Be listened to and supported through the first year.
Decide, plan and craft a smoother transition.
Reclaim your identity, find your strengths, regain your confidence.
Prepare for motherhood; take time to think through your thoughts, feelings and potential anxieties of becoming a mother. Discuss changes in identity, moving away from work and how to communicate with your employer. Plan for upcoming changes and create strategies to enhance your well-being during your expectant mother journey.
Space to talk; discuss your feelings, anxieties, and concerns. Find ways to improve your well-being and manage the challenges you face. Consider thoughts about returning to work and making the right choices for you and your family. Create plans for your remaining months of maternity leave and a smoother transition back to work.
Planning and managing your return; outline your concerns for home and work, make sense of your feelings, work through your thinking and create sound plans for each step of your return. Reflect back on your journey and be empowered by a new understanding of your skills and strengths.
Time for me; reconnect with your identity, values, passions and where you want to head next, whether this be with your career, well-being, or personal ambitions. Air your thoughts, feelings and reflections, and be challenged to find new strengths to craft your flourishing motherhood.
What mothers say…
“Having the opportunity to speak about how I was feeling about returning to work was helpful just in itself. Arabella illuminated the situation in ways I hadn’t previously considered.”
— Alice, Campaign Manager.
“Definitely felt a lot better afterwards, just being able to ‘air’ concerns that were previously too embarrassing or shameful to discuss was extremely helpful. I definitely came away feeling lighter and I haven’t felt as anxious as I did before the session.”
— Beth, Assistant Medical Administrator
“Arabella provides a valuable external view away from work culture, family history etc to help overcome preconceptions and mental blocks. Arabella has a real skill in her abilities here, as well as empathy and life experience to provide such guidance and counsel.”
— Lauren, Senior IT executive.
