being a mother can feel…complicated.

Incandescent joy. crushing isolation. wonder at the little beings. being everything to everyone. (enough pressure to create a diamond.)

oh, and don’t forget to make it look easy.

it isn’t what i expected either.

I’m kristina ~ Let’s get to know each other

I’ve been there. In the darkest nights of breastfeeding a tiny baby. In the long afternoon hours that somehow feels like it takes a decade to pass. In the moments of awe at their persistence and bravery.

We go through unbelievable changes becoming mothers: physiological, psychological, hormonal…it can feel like a completely bewildering transformation. It can be really really hard. And I believe that even if we can’t change the hard parts of being a mother, we can try to change the feeling of being alone in it.

I want to create something new: a way to communicate that supports the relationships we have; to nurture new relationships with other mothers who are on the same path. A way to learn the best tools that science has to teach about self-compassion and vulnerability, and to pass on our hard earned wisdom to the next generation of mothers.

All grounded in compassion and kindness.

I hope that you will join me.

Love, K
