✨ In her Power and Intuition ✨

We met by the water. Witnessing you throw rocks with your son and being present with him was beautiful. So many mothers will resonate with your share 🧡

Thank you for bringing my muse .marie

How has motherhood enriched your life? What had it sparked within you?

“Motherhood has enriched my life by giving me a sense of purpose. My childhood wasn’t bad, but there are key elements I feel I missed. I’m able to heal my inner child and re-parent myself by parenting and providing enrichment and opportunities I didn’t always get. Watching Cedar explore nature in simple ways, like throwing rocks into a pond for 45 minutes, enriches my life in ways I can’t even explain. Watching him grow into the person he is brings me so much joy. I used to feel like I had to impress people constantly in order to gain approval. Now, I feel so much more relaxed when it comes to being myself. Sure- my nervous system is fried sometimes from the big emotions and sleepless nights, but my nervous system is so much more relaxed in social settings. Being a mother has brought me a sense of confidence because I know I can do really hard things, and my values and intuition have become so much stronger and clearer. My intuition is guided by what I believe to be best for my family, and somehow that just makes things more clear and straightforward than they ever have been before for me.”

“In addition to boosting my confidence and sharpening my intuition, being a mother has sparked my awe at life again, something that had waned for several years before becoming pregnant. It also made it clear to me that life comes in seasons. It’s ok to not have a clear trajectory life path. Today I’m a mother and a doula, and who knows where I’ll be in ten years. I feel much less attached to trying to figure it all out at once, and more open to the flow and unfolding of life in its own time.“

ReWild Motherhood Series

Robyn ~In her light~

The sunshine was weaving magic into these photos.Mother Nature was playing with us, as rainbows and prisms shaped like lunar moths emerged.

The Rewild Motherhood Series is a passion project intended to capture your essence as a mother. My heart is filled with sunshine that my dearest friend Robyn was the first mother of the project.

How has motherhood enriched your life, Robyn?

“Motherhood has made me stronger. It’s made me set stronger boundaries. Motherhood has made me prioritize providing a safe space for my daughter which in turn has provided me with a safe space in a lot of ways.”

Thank you 🧡

Bring a journal and pen!

There will be snacks, coffee and tea.

Anger and rage as sacred messengers, boundaries, slowing down and syncing with the feminine or reclaiming generosity

Happy New Moon

It’s hard to believe it’s been three months since The Self Love Retreat in Hot Springs, North Carolina. The hurricane that swept through left a trail of devastation, deeply impacting the area. It’s heartbreaking to see such destruction, yet we are so grateful that the Wheel of Bliss House, a sanctuary for so many, remained unharmed.

Life has felt like a whirlwind since then, leaving little room to pause and reflect. But today, I want to take a moment to celebrate this incredible group of women.

As a facilitator, I know I couldn’t have navigated the challenges we faced alone. This group truly became a community—a team that lifted one another up. Together, we climbed the mountain, confronted our fears, kept moving forward and emerged stronger on the other side. Each of you brought your own unique light to share, and it created something truly special.

That time we shared was transformative. I believe we all walked away with a deeper understanding of ourselves and a renewed sense of self-love, nurtured by the compassion and support of the Forward We Grow community.

What a beautiful gift to carry forward.

At its core, self-love and self-care are all about preserving oneself. So, how does that translate into everyday life?

It means learning to say no when necessary, establishing healthy boundaries, carving out time to slow down and nurture your inner being, surrounding yourself with supportive individuals, and embracing moments of connection with nature (backed by science for its positive impact on the nervous system).

These Embodiment Self-Love Photoshoots exemplify and validate the essence of self-love.

These women made the conscious decision to dedicate a few days to prioritize their mental, physical, and emotional well-being. They deserve that, and so do you.

Grant yourself that permission and follow the lead of these inspiring and beautiful women.

Beneath the falls, where spirits soar, A haven beckons, for all to explore. In nature’s realm, our hearts align, A retreat for women, where love entwines.

Water’s embrace, a gentle touch, Earth’s grounding force, we yearn for much. Fire’s passion, ignites our soul, And air’s sweet whisper, makes us whole.

In this sacred space, we learn to see, The beauty within, both wild and free. A journey of self, where love takes flight, In nature’s arms, we find our light.

The Self Love Retreat is calling to you darling on this full moon.

Apply Now. Link is the bio 🌝
