“Matrescence”—a term coined by the anthropologist Dana Raphael— is defined as the process of becoming a mother. It's a word used to describe the physical, psychological, and emotional changes people go through during the monumental transformation that is motherhood. Join us for an intimate chat about this intense, life-changing rite of passage with the lovely Elise Clement.

Elise is a coach dedicated to supporting women's wellbeing and personal evolution through motherhood and matrescence. Elise is passionate about this topic and brings a depth of knowledge to this conversation as well as so much care and compassion. In addition to being a certified coach and wellbeing consultant, Elise is also a certified Mama Rising facilitator and a student of The School of Shamanic Womancraft. She is also currently completing her postgraduate training in holistic counselling and psychotherapy.

We invite you to pour a cup of tea or a glass of wine and settle in as Elise shares her story and her wisdom.

We chat about:

How becoming a mother is a process, not an event that happens when we give birth Birthing a child, birthing a motherHow to listen to ourselves and trust our own motherhood journeyThe impact of our cultural context: how the maternal mandate, the myths of the Good Mother and the Successful Woman are shaping our beliefs/expectations about motherhoodHow to reclaim the power of this season of our life through self-kindness, redefining strength, getting to know ourselves and what matters to us

And so much more!
