Did you know matrescence – the transition from woman to mother – is the most life-changing transformation a woman will ever go through?
When we are pregnant, we are encouraged to read all the books and take all the classes to prepare ourselves for giving birth and caring for our baby. But what about motherhood?
When a baby is born, a mother is born!
We must also prepare ourselves for the changes that matrescence brings to us, and how we can use these to truly thrive in motherhood.
If we have the knowledge of how matrescence changes us, and tools we can use to keep our brain strong and resilient for the rollercoaster of motherhood, we are prepared!
You have booked into antenatal class for your birth and baby, now book yourself in to antenatal class for yourself!

The course is best to start when you are between 25 and 30 weeks pregnant.
“I saw my best friend underestimate how motherhood would be. She really struggled. So when I became pregnant I wanted to make sure that didn’t happen to me. This course not only over-delivered on my expectations, it also brought me lifelong friends who totally get me, because they are going through it themselves” – Annaliese M

A little about your facilitator for the course…
Hi, I’m Dr Jen – mother of 3, neuroscientist, researcher, author and creator of Tough Mothers.
I’m a mum, first and foremost. I know how hard motherhood can be, I have had my fair share of struggles – stress, severe anxiety, overwhelm, you name it. I now also know you don’t need to suffer like that, and you can be happy and thriving in motherhood.
Let me teach you everything I learnt and know about matrescence – the developmental transition a woman goes through when she becomes a mother, how it changes us (in particular our brain) and how we can prepare ourselves in the best way to truly thrive in motherhood (by training our brain to be strong and resilient). This is known as self-directed neuroplasticity. Please don’t freak, it sounds much more complex than it is. It’s actually really simple!
I have been researching neuroplasticity – the brain’s ability to change itself as a result of our experiences and actions – for over 20 years. I have a PhD in neuroscience and a degree in Psychotherapy. But what qualifies me most is I have been there! I know matrescence intimately, and I really suffered after I had my third baby. I also know that unless we learn about how to prepare our brain for motherhood the potential to lose ourselves, struggle or become bewildered in motherhood is huge. I was there. It sucks!
Don’t let yourself get there!
Just like you wouldn’t have your baby without knowledge about what to expect and what you can do to make it a great birth experience, nor should you go into motherhood without doing a course on matrescence and how to use this life-changing time to create the motherhood life you have always dreamed of.
