WELCOME TO

the M(other) Space

WHERE YOU GET TO BE HELD, SEEN, SUPPORTED - WHATEVER SEASON OF MOTHERHOOD YOU’RE IN.

This space was created for you, the modern mother.

HERE, YOU GET TO RETURN TO YOURSELF. TO DROP THE “SHOULDS”, DISSOLVE CONDITIONING, AND DESIGN A PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL REALITY THAT FEELS TRUE.

THIS SPACE PROVIDES, A SUPPORT SYSTEM THAT HOLDS YOU.

STRATEGIES THAT SUSTAIN YOU.

SPACE TO BREATHE, REFLECT & RECALIBRATE;

SO THAT YOU CAN UNAPOLOGETICALLY: LEAD, LIVE, MOTHER, ACHIEVE.

a new era of mother support is here

〰️

a new era of mother support is here 〰️

explore the SPACE

Education. Empowerment. Coaching. Community. Connection.

Where knowledge meets nurture. Where growth feels grounded.
Where your ambitions and your motherhood aren’t competing priorities -
but equal parts of who you are. Where you return to yourself; supported, resourced, and seen.

explore

support that

meets you

exactly

where you are

IT BEGINS WITH A SHIFT. A TRANSITION. A PROFOUND RE-MAKING. IT’S CALLED MATRESCENCE. IT CAN FEEL DISORIENTING - LIKE YOU’VE LOST YOUR FOOTING. BUT KNOW THIS: YOU ARE NOT ALONE. IT’S NOT IN YOUR HEAD. AND YOU HAVE NOT LOST YOURSELF. THIS IS THE METAMORPHOSIS OF BECOMING A MOTHER. IT CAN SHAKE EVERY CORNER OF WHO YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE, OF EVERYTHING YOU THOUGHT YOU ONCE KNEW - BUT THAT CAN BRING GREAT OPPORTUNITY - OPENING THE DOOR TO A LIFE LIVED MORE FULLY ALIGNED THAN EVER BEFORE.

MAYBE YOU ARE REDISCOVERING YOURSELF AFTER BIRTH. MAYBE YOU’RE RETURNING TO PAID WORK. MAYBE YOU’RE REDEFINING WHAT SUCCESS MEANS NOW. MAYBE YOU’RE SIMPLY CRAVING SPACE TO BREATHE BETWEEN AMBITION AND CARE.

WHATEVER YOUR SEASON, the M(other) Space IS HERE TO WALK BESIDE YOU. BECAUSE HOW YOU ARE HELD DURING THIS TRANSITION CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING.

we BELIEVE

Motherhood isn’t a limitation; it’s a catalyst for growth.
You shouldn’t have to choose between ambition and family.
Success is personal - you get to define it.
Community is power - together, we thrive.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

“As a mum it's easy to get caught up in what you’re doing for everyone else and in that, lose your sense of self.

Laurie provides the space and expert guidance to allow you to take stock of what you need to feel nurtured and supported, and provides you with tools and insights to thrive.”

On the power of naming the season we’re in ~

Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is pause long enough to name the season we’re in.

Because each season of motherhood and ambition asks something different of us. Some seasons fee

MATRESCENCE.

Matrescence is the developmental transition into motherhood—like adolescence, but rarely acknowledged. It changes your brain, your body, your values, and your sense of self. It’s not a breakdown. It’s a becoming.

So

You don’t just return to work after maternity leave. You return as someone new.

But too often, we rush to slot ourselves back into the shape of who we were.

Same workload. Same expectations. Same systems that weren’t built with mother

Here’s what I wish workplaces understood…

Returning to work after maternity leave isn’t just about logistics.

It’s a psychological, emotional, and identity-level shift.

But too often, women are handed a return date and exp

It’s not just you.

So many women return to work after maternity leave and think,
“Why does this feel so… strange?”

You’ve grown, shifted, stretched—and often, softened too.

You’ve gone through matrescence

What do we really believe about mothers?

About what they’re capable of. About the support they deserve. About what’s possible for them?

At the M(other) Space we believe matrescence is the beginning of something powerful. An awakening,

We’ve been sold a narrow version of ambition.

It’s loud. Fast. Always reaching.

But in the M(other) Space, we know ambition has seasons.

It can evolve. Soften. Sharpen. Pause. Reignite.

Because ambition after motherhood often looks di

Back yourself. You’ve done harder things 💪 ✨

We need to stop treating “mum brain” like a flaw.

Motherhood changes the brain in incredible ways - ways that enhance your emotional intelligence, decision making, and capacity for leadership.

Yes, you might forget the milk.

But you

Whether you’re preparing to return to work after maternity leave, trying to find your rhythm in a new season, or holding a vision for something more aligned…

You don’t have to figure it all out alone.

This season of life asks a

Because matrescence changes everything.

Your values, your vision, your capacity, your needs.

And that doesn’t mean you’re stalling — it means you’re evolving.

Let it be permission. 🌿

They say motherhood changes you - and it does.

But what they don’t say is:

You’re allowed to carry that transformation forward on your terms.

Becoming a mother shaped how I show up in the world.
It deepened my values, clarified my d

That creative spark you’re feeling?

It’s not a fluke. It’s a feature of your evolution.

Motherhood doesn’t shrink your creative potential ~

It shapes it. Expands it. Deepens it.

You’re not broken for wanting more

You don’t have to lower your standards.

You just have to choose the ones that are actually yours.

This is your permission to stop proving - and start aligning.

What are you holding on to that no longer feels true for this season of life?
