The Return Online is a 2-part immersive workshop for mothers who feel stretched thin, running on empty, and ready to reconnect with themselves.

A potent blend of nervous system education, embodiment, subconscious rewiring, and practical nourishment strategies; this experience is for mothers who want to release the weight of perfection, regulate their bodies, and return home to a steadier, more spacious version of themselves.

Whilst motherhood can be deeply meaningful and love-filled, it can also feel overwhelming, relentless, and at times like you’ve lost touch with yourself. It’s a little like trying to catch your breath while the waves just keep rolling in.

You already know the “shoulds” — eat well, rest more, move your body, take care of yourself — but in reality, it often feels impossible to find the space or energy. Even the idea of adding one more thing to your list can feel heavy.

You’re doing your best, juggling the load of family, work, and endless invisible responsibilities, but somewhere along the way you get lost in the noise.

That’s why I created The Return Online. This two-part reset helps you make sense of why motherhood feels so stretching, and what you can do to feel steadier, more resourced, and more connected to yourself again.

It’s not just about fixing symptoms — it’s about understanding your nervous system, untangling cultural and subconscious expectations, and giving your body, mind, and spirit the chance to soften.

The Return is a homecoming. A space to exhale. A chance to meet yourself with compassion, to regulate, to release survival mode, and to return to the mother — and woman — you want to be. And you don’t do it alone. We do it together, alongside other mothers walking the same path.

    I could not recommend Emma more. I have never come across such a holistic method to motherhood. I love the way Emma has made it so normal to work on yourself as a mother, and that we don't have to accept how society views us. I love how this programme feels as important as a CEO of a large company participating in a managers' course. Motherhood is such an important role that shouldn't be diminished and deserves spending time and energy on, so that we as mothers love what we do and feel that sense of purpose and accomplishment that we somewhat lose when we step away from our pre-baby careers. We have a lot going on in our lives right now, and Emma couldn't have come into my life at a better time. I honestly don't know how we as a family would have gotten through the last few weeks. The programme has helped not only with small events like toddler tantrums but also with big events like buying and selling a home and running a business with my husband.

    This course should be a requirement in the first year of motherhood for everyone! To look at motherhood through the lense of biology, sociology and spirituality, and to find tools to support us to navigate it all is an empowering gift for mothers. Under Emma’s relaxed, endearing and professional facilitation, this course was not only enjoyable, but a life changing experience. If every mother took part, the ripple effect that would have would undoubtedly change the world!

    The key takeaway I have gained from working with Emma is that I don't need to change who I am, but rather, I needed to understand what is going on with my emotions, body, and actions, and learn to process and make sense of them. I always thought I needed to get back to my old self, but I have learnt from my work with Emma that it's like a new hybrid of myself. I'm a mum, so of course, I'm going to be a different person, but I've found those qualities I loved about myself before having kids and brought them back into the person I am now, with so much love, compassion, self-acceptance, understanding, and fun. The biggest takeaway is how much fun I am having parenting again, being silly and not apologising for it, loving spending time with my kids, smiling and laughing more, and most importantly, seeing the impact this is having on my kids. I love chatting with Emma; she is so understanding and personable, and I feel so comfortable sharing anything that is going on with me.

    Motherhood is the biggest and most complex experience you will likely face in life. Of all the things we spend money on, this experience and the ripple effect it creates in life, it really deserves the time and money of this course! To not only understand and have compassion for your experience, but to be equipped to make powerful shifts to making it an experience that feels graceful, beautiful and expansive. It doesn’t have to be so hard.

    After working with Emma, I feel calmer in my parenting and I am more conscious of where my energy is going. I understand why I react to things and what my strengths are. I am also so aware of how my parenting and how I am around out children will impact them now and into the future.
