Navigating those “in-betweens” and transitions can be so challenging. And while we can’t wave a magic wand to get “there” faster, there are tools that can support us along the way.
Have you ever noticed yourself ‘handling what needs to be handled’—or fixing, reflexively helping, prioritizing everyone else—before even noticing what you need?
If you’ve noticed those patterns, what you’re seeing are adaptations—wise strategies your system once developed to keep you safe, connected, or accepted. And while they once served us, they can shape how we show up—often without us even realizing it…
Which brings us to Step Three of the Remothering Roadmap: Recognize Your Adaptations.
We can be so harsh with ourselves at times. And perhaps a part of you holds an intention of not being so hard on yourself—but at the same time, there are internal beliefs that may say things like:
“It’s selfish to focus on yourself”, “You’re fine—stop making such a big deal of it”, “Don’t get too comfortable—something could go wrong.”
Step Two of the Remothering Roadmap: Healing Brain States — learning to work with our brain’s natural wiring, rather than against it.
This article sets the foundations for the remothering journey.
We’ll be covering what remothering is and what it isn’t, and we’ll be looking at the remothering roadmap framework so you can get an overview of the process. And, more importantly, so we can set you up for thriving forward with a powerful sense of alignment.
For those of us that come from a personal history that taught us that self-anything is indulgent (and, the dreaded s-word, selfish), remothering is a courageous act of self-love.

Although Earth Day began in 1970, when I was in elementary school in the late 70’s and early 80’s, we hadn’t gotten the memo yet. Naively unaware of the environmental impact, my 4th grade class sent off balloons in hopes of finding a pen pal.
“Hi, I’m _____. I’m in 4th grade. Do you want to be pen pals?”.
