Seasons of
Parenthood
Parenthood moves in seasons.
There are times of growth and energy, and times of contraction, uncertainty, and deep tiredness. Moments of confidence, and moments of doubt. Periods when life feels expansive, and others when simply holding it all together takes everything you have.
Yet so often, parents are expected to keep going at the same pace, regardless of the season they’re in.
Seasons of Parenthood was created to change that.
This is a community designed to support parents through the real rhythms of family life, offering space to pause, reflect, and feel supported, no matter which season you’re navigating.

March opens our first season together with The Reset.This circle will focus on the emotional fatigue and mental load - those who sense that the answer isn’t to do more, but to see more clearly.
Together, we’ll gently step out of winter survival mode, naming what feels heavy without fixing or forcing change. This is a space to settle, soften, and reconnect - creating clarity, steadiness, and space as the new season begins.

UPCOMING
EVENTS
Beginning Together
Seasons of Parenthood is an invitation into a more connected, human way of parenting, held in community, shaped by the seasons, and grounded in real life.
This community is just beginning.
Each month, parents join from different places and seasons, each carrying a different story.
What connects us is a shared commitment to:
parenting with greater calm and clarity
staying connected to ourselves as we support our families
growing alongside others, rather than doing it alone
Wherever you are in the world, you’re welcome to join us.
WHY SEASONS OF PARENTHOOD EXISTS
Parenting has become increasingly loud.
More advice. More opinions. More pressure to get it right.
And yet, fewer spaces where parents can slow down, reconnect to themselves, and be supported without judgment or fixing.
Seasons of Parenthood exists because parents don’t need another programme or another set of expectations.
They need anchoring.
A place to land. A rhythm to return to. Support that feels human, steady, and sustainable.
HOW THIS COMMUNITY
CAME TOGETHER
I created Seasons of Parenthood in collaboration with Anisa Lewis, a Positive Parenting Coach, former deputy headteacher, and mentor with over 25 years’ experience supporting families in the UK and internationally.
Through my work guiding young people, families, and educational communities, and through Anisa’s deep experience working with families in schools and in private practice, we both kept noticing the same thing.
Parents were carrying an enormous emotional, mental, and practical load, often without consistent space to pause, reflect, or feel supported themselves.
When Anisa and I began talking, it became clear we shared the
same values:
Calm over control
Rhythm over rush
Flow and trust over push and hustle
Support that fits real life
Alongside our professional backgrounds in education, leadership, and somatic practice, we also bring lived experience of navigating our own very real season of parenthood.
Seasons of Parenthood grew from those conversations - a community created to offer parents steadiness, perspective, and support through the natural rhythms of family life.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to create a calm, seasonal sanctuary where parents can pause,
reconnect, and feel supported, without judgement, pressure, or fixing.
We believe parenting isn’t something to perfect.
It’s something to live through different seasons, with care, compassion, and steadiness.
Seasons of Parenthood exists to offer:
Rhythm instead of rush
Reflection instead of reactivity
Connection without comparison
Support that honours parents as whole humans
HOW IT WORKS
The community follows a seasonal rhythm, offering consistent support without overwhelm.
As a member, you’ll receive:
Monthly live 1-hour online circles with Emma and Anisa
a reliable pause to reflect, regulate, and reconnectSeasonal guidance aligned to the focus of each month
Journaling prompts, gentle reflections and practical tools
to support integration each monthPractical, real-world parenting tools you can actually put into practice
Exclusive Rapid Tapping® practice
woven into each circle, supporting calm, clarity, and a gentle shift into possibilityA private, low-noise community space, held with care
Discounted access to seasonal in-person gatherings
Priority booking for community events held every quarter
Replay access to each circle, so you can return in your own time
This is support designed to feel steady and sustainable, not another thing to keep up with.
WHO THIS IS FOR
This community is for parents (wherever you are on your journey) who desire:
calm, not control
clarity, confidence, connection, and calm in modern family life
grounded support without overwhelm
to parent consciously without losing themselves
to grow and be supported through every season of parenthood
You don’t need to have it all together. You’re welcome exactly as you are.
WHAT THIS COMMUNITY IS (and isn’t)
Seasons of Parenthood is not a programme.
And it’s not a networking group.
It’s a gentle community for parents who want:
Space to slow down and breathe
Support without performance or pressure
Practical tools that work in everyday family life
Guidance that flows with the seasons of parenthood
This is a space where parents are met where they are, not where they think they should be.
The Springboard
The Springboard is the opening gathering of Seasons of Parenthood - a visioning morning made both sacred and practical.
Held on the Spring Equinox, this in-person experience offers a parenting reset ritual for the year ahead. Through grounding, guided reflection, values exploration, and gentle intention-setting, attendees are invited to reconnect - not just to what they want, but to how they want to feel, as they plant intentions for themselves and their family for the seasons ahead.
Anisa and Emma will guide you in creating your own vision board to take home - a practical, meaningful anchor for the year. The morning includes a warm welcome with refreshments and pastries, connection with like-minded community members, and a Rapid Tapping® flow led by Emma to support regulation, release, and openness to possibility.
Held at Devonshire Arms Hotel, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Bolton Abbey Estate, the space is intentionally designed so no one leaves rushed or unheld, but steadied, clearer, and anchored back into themselves.
This is not about becoming a better parent.
It’s about becoming a more aligned one - clarifying what you want to place your focus on for you and your family, and anchoring into that energy and feeling as the year unfolds.
As a special invitation, the first 10 individuals to book will receive complimentary spa access, allowing you to extend the experience into a full day of rest and renewal as Spring begins.
As an extra thank you for joining us at our inaugural community gathering, you will receive FREE access to our March online circle (worth £26).
A COMMUNITY THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE
Seasons of Parenthood is intentionally designed as an online-first, internationally accessible community.
We know parents are navigating different time zones, schedules, and realities and that not everyone will be able to attend every live gathering.
What mattered to us was creating:
A monthly place to gather, wherever you are in the world
Live circles supported by replay access
Seasonal guidance that meets you in your own time and rhythm
This community isn’t about showing up perfectly.
It’s about knowing there is a place to return to - again and again.
