Motherhood and the Search for Self

You love your children deeply. You are dedicated to being the best mother possible. But somewhere between the first sleepless night and the current relentless juggle, you lost sight of who you are. This struggle is real. You are exhausted. You are disconnected from your partner, resentful even though you know he is trying.

You are not alone in feeling trapped between impossible demands. Perhaps you are drowning in mum guilt for wanting more than motherhood. Perhaps you feel lost because the version of yourself before children no longer seems to fit. The impossible tension you feel is a sign you are in transition and need a new operating system, not a sign you are failing.

The Power of Coexistence

The belief that you must choose between your children and your career or identity is a myth that keeps you stuck. Inner Work is not about adding more to your plate. It is about releasing the immense weight of unnecessary guilt and impossible standards.

When you begin this elevated work, you learn how to integrate the different parts of who you are: mother, professional, woman, and partner. We help you navigate this complex season with clarity and self-compassion. You will reconnect with your core values and develop practical, guilt-free boundaries that protect your energy without adding shame.

You can shift this dynamic. You can learn to communicate with your partner in ways that foster genuine understanding. You can create a life structure where your children thrive and your identity is honoured. This is how you create a life where motherhood and self beautifully coexist.

How We Support Mothers in Transition

We specialise in this exact crossroads. This specific transition of managing identity, career, motherhood, and partnership is nuanced and complex. Our coaches understand every layer and will guide you with deep compassion.

We build sustainable foundations. This is not about quick fixes or motivational highs that fade. It is about creating structures that support you through this season and beyond, moving you out of the reactive cycle and into intentional living.

You work within a complete support system. You receive one-to-one coaching, community support, daily practices, and a proven framework designed specifically for high-functioning women managing multiple complex demands.

We help both partners. Your husband is not the enemy; he simply does not have the tools either. We help you develop new ways of relating that create genuine understanding instead of conflict.

Our approach is action-oriented and practical. We do not keep you stuck examining the problem. We help you build solutions that fit your actual life and responsibilities, not an idealised version of it.

What Becomes Possible

When you commit to this Inner Work, the tension dissolves and integration begins. You will:

  • Build clarity on what you want in this season beyond just "getting through it."

  • Develop guilt-free boundaries around work and motherhood that protect your energy.

  • Learn to communicate your needs in ways your husband can actually understand.

  • Create daily practices that keep you grounded through chaos and overwhelm.

  • Reconnect with confidence in who you are as mother, partner, and woman.

You do not have to choose. You can be a great mum without losing yourself. Let us show you how.

  • The immersion program has allowed me to explore why I operated and lived the way I did. It has awakened me and allowed me to discover and face parts of me that were not serving me. I have learnt valuable techniques to assist me in querying, surrendering, pivoting and redirecting my vessel. I will be able to use the tools learnt in this program for life. We never know when a curve ball may come our way. Curve balls aren’t so scary anymore as I now know how to manage and grow through them. The team are incredible, knowledgeable, approachable, passionate and committed. The program participants are like minded, welcoming and non-judgemental. I would have no hesitation in recommending the program whether you feel you almost have everything sorted in your life or are feeling really really lost like I was.

  • Completing the Immersion Program has completely changed how I experience my life. It hasn’t just shifted what I do day to day. Iit’s transformed how I see myself, my goals, and my relationships. Six months ago, I didn’t truly understand what it meant to feel content, but now I do. I’ve learned that the energy I bring into the world is what I receive in return."

  • Awakened Lifestyles has transformed my life . . . what a powerful force. An incredible community of the best Inner Work Coaches and souls utterly dedicated to seeing you truly thrive and live your best day ever, every day. I would not be who and where I am today without their guidance and support and ability to help me understand myself in ways I hadn't in 40 years, nor had psychs been able to do. If you want to be content, and truly flourish and elevate, just go straight to the best - I simply cannot recommend Awakened Lifestyles enough.

  • Words cannot describe how grateful I am for Ant, Ceri and the team at Awakened Lifestyles. 6 months ago I was living my life in a constant state of stress, always striving yet never arriving. AL has taught me the skills to connect with who I truly am, my values, and balancing doing with being. I would recommend AL to anyone who seeks inner contentment, particularly high achievers who think going at a million miles an hour = success / happiness. A huge thank you to the AL Team x

    Ella Thurston

  • I am both a graduate of the Awakened Lifestyles Coaching Accreditation and a current client in the Unmask: Your Next Self 6-month program, and I can confidently say this work has been transformative. I am a calmer mother, partner, and daughter, and I am meeting myself at a depth I never knew was possible. This journey is equal parts confronting and liberating, and it has changed my life. I truly wish everyone had the opportunity and willingness to experience this work.
