Transition to motherhood can mean endless things. It can bring up reflections and wonderings about how we were raised—our own experiences of being mothered. It can bring us into emotional landscapes that feel unfamiliar and unexpected. We face an innumerable number of shifts and changes to how we view ourselves and the world we find ourselves inhabiting. Sarah believes that it is in this uncharted territory when we need community and space to reflect most. It is her honor to be a part of your community.
