Motherhood: Redefined

​We know you feel overwhelmed. No matter how much you do,  it doesn't feel like enough. You and your burnout are invisible to the world, where there’s too much judgement and not enough connection.

​Let’s change that. 
​

In this community we value interdependence over independence. Join us to redefine motherhood for yourself and your family in a welcoming and inclusive space. We will be real, creative, and messy as we gather to explore what motherhood means to us. 
​We’ll explore:
  • The transformative power of motherhood
  • What it means to be “enough” 
  • Learning to trust ourselves and our intuition as we reclaim the wisdom of our bodies
  • Cultivating internal stability when everything around us is changing all the time
  • Letting go of guilt and unnecessary suffering
  • How to build community in a world that rewards going at it alone
  • Valuing ourselves as mothers in a patriarchal society 
Picture
​
​Alone, we wonder, “am I the only one who’s struggling?” Together, we remind each other of how strong and resilient we actually are.

The program

We’ll meet weekly in circles of 6-8 mothers to share, dig deep, and support each other. 

The program will include:
  • Hybrid in-person and virtual  circle gatherings each week (join on zoom if needed!)
  • Weekly practices to help us connect to ourselves and reflect on our lives 
  • Curated resources on motherhood, parenting, patriarchy, self-cultivation and more 
  • Guides, activities, and handouts to complement our weekly conversations
  • An online community with a discussion forum to stay connected between sessions

We'll hold an open, welcoming, and judgement-free space to explore motherhood identity within the context of a culture that doesn’t support mothers.

Most mothers in the program have between 1 and 3 children who are ages 6 months to 8 years old. Some mothers bring their child(ren) and others attend solo. Please see the FAQ below for more details or reach out to us with any questions. 

Meet your facilitators Robyn Gordon & Elizabeth Hubley

​We can't wait to do this together!

The details

Our next cohort of Motherhood: Redefined will start in early 2023. Please complete the form below to be the first to know when registration opens.

Location:
Motherhood: Redefined is held in-person at Elizabeth's home in Silver Spring, MD near the 
Sligo Avenue Neighborhood Park. The exact address will be sent to participants upon registration. Participants can also join via zoom.

​There is ample free street parking. We are about 1 mile from both the Silver Spring and Takoma metro stations and there are also busses from each of the stations that stop a block away (the 16 bus from Silver Spring and the 14 bus from Takoma).
​Health Policy:
To attend in-person you must be fully vaccinated and boosted. When meeting indoors, masks will be mandatory for adults. In the case of mild weather we can meet outdoors on a fully screened-in porch. 

If participants have any symptoms of illness (Covid-19 or otherwise), have been in contact with anyone who has symptoms or has tested positive for Covid-19, or have tested positive yourself, they are required to join on zoom. Participants can, of course, join on zoom for any other reason as well.

​The circle will meet all virtually if necessary.

Motherhood: Redefined FAQ

Who can join?
We welcome anyone who identifies as a mother into this program. ALL moms are welcome. We embrace diversity in background, sexual orientation, age, race, religion, etc. 

How many people will be in my circle? 
The circle will have between 6-8 moms.

Can I bring my child(ren)?
Moms & their young children are welcome. We don't provide separate childcare so children will be with us in the circle and you are welcome to bring toys, snacks, and other entertainment for them. You are also welcome to come on your own.

What if I need accommodations for a disability?

We strive to host circles that are inclusive, accessible spaces for all mama-identifying people, including those with disabilities, to engage in. If you have an accessibility need please mention it in the registration form and we'll follow up with you directly. 

Where do we meet?
The circles will meet in Silver Spring, MD. Attending virtually is always an option. If necessary, the group will transition fully to zoom. 

Why should I join?
Modern-day parenting is exhausting and often lonely. We're doing the most important work in the world, yet are undervalued in our culture. We're here to bring back essential connections, (re)discover our self-worth, and create the community we need. 

What if I am going to miss a week? Is there a way to make-up? 
Due to the session/cohort model there are no make-ups but we will have the option to call/zoom in if you are unable to attend in-person.

What if I changed my mind? Can I get a refund?
Full refunds (minus a processing fee) are available up to one week ahead of the start date. Cancellations between one week and the start of the program receive a 50% refund. No refunds are available after the start date.
