WHO is this online conference for?
I woke up this morning and stopped the presses on my original announcement to share the words of one of our speakers
because she said it better than me (bold emphasis mine):It’s often SO hard to see where you need support, where you are struggling when you’re in it. It’d be like asking a drowning person, “Instead of flailing about, have you thought about using a raft you don’t have?” while you stand on the shore—or at least that is what it felt like to me.
I needed someone to throw me a raft. I needed someone to pull me out of the water. I needed someone to say, “I can see you are drowning. I may not have all the answers, but I won’t let this continue and it’s not your fault.” Hell, at times, I would have settled for someone to just jump in the water with me.
This conference was created by a mother and features mothers but it is not exclusively for mothers.
This conference has to be about helping mothers without expecting they should do it all themselves (we already operate this way by default).
The primary goals of this event:
To equip you with the language and tools of mental healthcare
To help bridge the gap between mothers struggling and mothers able to get care (through awareness of resources and collective need we learn there are options for support and that others are here to share the way)
To equip all persons connected with mothers (everyone) with additional tools and language that will help nurture women who are nurturing their families
For mothers to feel more self compassion when they think, talk, or look at themselves
