Anxious about combining work and motherhood?
Struggling to enjoy these precious moments with your tiny human because you are worried about work?
Do you want to find a way of being a mum and having a career you love?
Have a cyclone of negative, doubty thoughts spinning around in your head?
Probably about:
- How you know you are not meant to be a 24/7 mum. You want to return to work, but aren’t sure where to start
- How you’ll have to work AND ‘do it all’ (be mum, cooking, cleaning, washing, dog walking).
- How to work out your priorities now that bub is in the mix (you’re used to working hard and long, meeting deadlines and kicking goals).
No matter what’s worrying you right now, I want to be the support system to you, that I didn’t know I needed.
IF YOU NOD IN AGREEMENT AT ANY OF THE FOLLOWING
READ ON (I have something special for you):
-
You love your baby so much but you are starting to feel a little bored.
-
You’ve found yourself jealous of your partner for getting to go to work (I have done this!)
-
You are ready to earn your own money again.
-
You want to talk to another human adult and use the skills you spent so many years building up.
Introducing my new one-on-one coaching service
Hi, I’m Amanda, your private cheer leader and fellow first-time mum.
I help 9-5 career driven women smoothly transition over to motherhood (& even back again).
I want you to know that all those niggly doubts you’re currently experiencing or feelings you ‘shouldn’t’ and ‘can’t’ be feeling – are totally & absolutely normal.
I would know, I’ve dedicated my life to coaching women, like you, on all of this
You’re my type of woman if:
- Your baby is becoming their own little person. Now it’s time for you to find work that challenges you AND allows you to still be there for bub. But you are afraid of doing it.
- You are back at work but it’s not offering you everything you need. You are looking for a change but need help to get started.
No matter which stage of ‘motherhood’ you’re currently at:
I’VE GOT YOU
I’m offering a handful of first-time mums the chance to work with me one-on-one via one of my 3 packages:
So, who am I to be coaching you?
- I get what it’s like to have been so career-focused: I spent 8 years as a medical researcher (PhD in physiotherapy), and I’ve spent the last 3 years studying how to reduce the major global health threat that is antibiotic resistance.
- I have a Masters level qualification in teaching
- I’ve studied in Canada with Health Psychologists – so, I probably understand the way our tricky women mind’s work, better than the next person
- Apparently I know what I’m talking about. My research articles have been published in 24 medical publications online. Some of those included The Medical Journal of Australia, the Journal American Medical Association (JAMA) Internal Medicine and the Cochrane Library.
I’ve been through it all – trodden the path leading from career blazing worker girl, to pregnancy, to mummy-in-training, to solopreneur.
I’ve felt the fear of doing it wrong, or like you’re failing because you haven’t ticked off anything on your to-do list. But, I’ve finally learnt how to feel joy again, accept my imperfections, and to relax and enjoy MY journey. You can too, I’ll show you how.
Here’s what some Not Just Mum clients have to say about me:
-
“Coaching with Amanda was authentic, powerful and personalised. As a new mother, I felt like I had lost myself somewhere along the way.”
-
"Amanda guided me through a life-changing journey. I wish I could have never-ending coaching for the rest of my life!"
Doctor, PhD student and mum of 2
-
“Dedicating time to honestly talk through things with someone who gets it was just awesome! By the end, I felt safe, supported and loved. I knew I wasn’t alone and that my feelings were normal.”
First time mum, teacher and lover of coffee
-
"Amanda allowed me the perfect space to share everything I was feeling. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my career. Finding my dream career turned out to be a journey of self-discovery."
Career and confidence coach
I know what you’re thinking:
- That you shouldn’t have to ask for help (isn’t that weak?!). You should be able to work it out on you own.
- Why work with me and not someone else?
- Can I really afford you at a time when I should be saving for the baby?
Well, I’m here to tell you that our minds are talented tricksters when it comes to convincing us that we should be doing better or we should be able to manage. The reality is that thousands of other women are feeling the same way you are.
So, what are you waiting for? Book in for a complimentary chat here and let’s get this ball rolling!
BUT WAIT,
IF THIS IS YOU:
- You feel on top of the world;
- You’re sailing smoothly through pregnancy;
- You feel totally connected to yourself and your life.
Then, we probably shouldn’t work together. It sounds to me like you are nailing it! Yes! Go forth, and be awesome.
Just because you’re awesome doesn’t mean we can’t stay in touch
