I want your motherhood to be powerful, instead of a battle with identity loss.
Do you miss your intellect, creativity, and spark?
​
Are you lost in a wild new territory that you don't know how to navigate?
​
Are you suffering from birth trauma, burnout, or angst?
​
Do you feel guilty for wanting a motherhood that sacrifices less of who you are?
​
After being steamrolled by postpartum life, I left my job at Yale University to develop the first coaching practice devoted to mothers' sense of self.
I'm Meredith Shepard, Ph.D., and I want you to have a motherhood that is in symbiosis with who you are.

Fellow mother, how can I help you today?
PRENATAL
Doctors act like pregnancy is just about the body. It's not.
​
Navigate pregnancy with the clarity and self-confidence you want to enter motherhood prepared.

Birth is unlike anything else, except perhaps death. You just did that.

Caring for a baby without a village can make anyone insane.
