Mentorship for Moms
Close the gap between the life you built and the self you left behind.
A 3-month private mentorship for ambitious mothers who are done waiting for “someday.” We find your gap, meet the selves that created it, and rebuild a career and life that actually fit who you are now.

The honest part
You did everything right. So why does your life feel like it belongs to someone else?
Maybe you paused your career and can’t find the door back in. Maybe you never left, and you’re succeeding at a job that quietly stopped fitting years ago. Maybe you’re running on a capacity model built for a person without children — and wondering why you’re always the one who breaks.
However you got here, the same thing is true: you are an ambitious, capable woman who became a mother, and somewhere in that becoming, a gap opened up. Between who you were and who you are. Between what you want and what you’ve given yourself permission to want.
You’ve read the books. You’ve journaled. You’ve taken the quizzes (maybe even mine). What you don’t have yet is someone sitting beside you, looking at your specific life, helping you turn insight into an actual plan.
The question isn’t “what’s wrong with me?” It never was. The question is: which gap is running your life — and what would it take to close it?
That’s the work of the Self/Shift Mentorship.
The program
Private, personal, and built entirely around your gap.
The Self/Shift Mentorship is my highest-touch offer — a one-on-one partnership over three months, built on the frameworks from my book Self/Shift: the Five Gaps, the Four Selves, and the five moves that take you from stuck to shifted.
This isn’t a course with a content library to fall behind on, and it isn’t generic life coaching. It’s a structured, personal process. Every session applies the framework directly to your life: your history, your family, your career, your particular flavor of stuck.
By the end, you won’t just understand why you’ve been stuck. You’ll have a named gap, a reclaimed sense of self, and a concrete 90-day rebuild plan you’re already executing.

Why me
I’m not coaching from a pedestal. I’m coaching from the middle of it.
I’m a career strategist and coach, a writer, and a mother. I built Making Motherhood Work because I lived the gap I now help women close — the slow, disorienting drift between the woman I’d worked so hard to become and the woman motherhood asked me to be.
I’ve been in your shoes
I know what it’s like to be brilliant at a life that doesn’t fit. And I know, from my own shift and from the women I’ve coached through theirs, that the answer isn’t hustling harder or “finding balance.” It’s identity work with a strategy attached.
That’s my lane: the intersection of who you are and what you build. Because a life that looks right but feels wrong will always come apart — and a self you understand is the best career strategy there is.
The path
Three months. Five moves. One shift.
We move through the full Self/Shift methodology — Name, Surface, Separate, Reconnect, Rebuild — one phase per month, applied entirely to your life.
01Month one
See / the Gap
Moves: Name + Surface
We start with a 90-minute Gap Mapping intensive, then spend the month naming exactly which of the Five Gaps — Permission, Clarity, Authenticity, Identity, or Capacity — is running your life, and surfacing the beliefs and patterns keeping it open.
Your primary and secondary gaps, named and mapped
The inner voice, structural layer, and bridge of each gap made visible
A clear picture of what “stuck” actually means in your life — no more vague dread
02Month two
Meet / Your Selves
Moves: Separate + Reconnect
This is the identity work. Using the Four Selves — Past Self, Mother Self, Borrowed Self, Future Self — we separate out the expectations you’ve been carrying that were never yours, and reconnect you with the parts of you that got archived somewhere between the career and the carpool.
Your Borrowed Self identified — whose voice you’ve been living by
The threads of your Past Self worth carrying forward (and the ones to release)
A vivid, specific portrait of your Future Self — not aspirational fluff, a real person
03Month three
Close / the Gap
Move: Rebuild
Now we build. Your career direction, your capacity design, your permission practices — assembled into a 90-day rebuild plan with weekly actions, so the shift keeps moving long after our last session.
A 90-day rebuild plan with clear weekly actions
Your next career move defined — return, pivot, build, or renegotiate
Capacity redesigned around your actual life, not your pre-kids one
What you’ll walk away holding.
Your Personal Gap Map
Your Five Gaps profile, mapped in depth — primary gap, secondary gap, and the specific patterns keeping each one open.
Your Four Selves Portrait
A written portrait of your Past, Mother, Borrowed, and Future Selves — who’s been driving, and who takes the wheel next.
The 90-Day Rebuild Plan
Your concrete execution plan for the three months after we finish, so momentum doesn’t end when the mentorship does.
The experience
What working together actually looks like.
Weekly 60-minute private sessions
Coaching, strategy, and the Self/Shift frameworks applied live to your real decisions — the job offer, the hard conversation, the identity wobble that showed up on Tuesday.
Gap work between sessions
Short, targeted exercises — reflection prompts, experiments, conversations to have. The goal is honest movement, not perfect homework.
Voxer access between calls
Hit a decision point mid-week? Message me. You’ll hear back within 48 hours — usually much sooner.
A soft landing after
One bonus month of async Voxer support after our final session, so you start executing your rebuild plan with backup.
The fit
An honest look at who this is for.
This is for you if…
You’re an ambitious mother who feels stuck, stalled, or like a stranger in your own life — whether you paused your career, stayed in it, or are somewhere in between
You want more than insight — you want a personal plan and someone in it with you
You’re willing to do identity work alongside the strategy work
You want a thought partner who will lovingly challenge you, not just cheer for you
You’re ready to invest in yourself the way you’ve invested in everyone else for years
This isn’t for you if…
You’re looking for someone to hand you a template and disappear
You want change without examining anything underneath it
You need therapy rather than coaching — a different, equally valid kind of support
If therapy is what you actually need, I’ll say so kindly and refer you to someone wonderful. And if a group container fits better, Close the Gap may be your on-ramp.
In their words
From women who stopped waiting.
The real shift
You stop being the woman who used to be ambitious / and become the woman who knows exactly what she’s building next.
By the end of three months, you’ll have moved from “I don’t recognize my life” to “I know my gap, I know my selves, and I know my next ninety days.” That’s not a vibe. That’s a plan.
Start with a Clarity Call.
Apply below and, if it looks like a fit, we’ll book a free 20-minute call. We’ll talk about where you are, which gap I suspect is running the show, and whether the mentorship is right for you. You’ll leave with clarity either way — that’s a promise, not a sales tactic.
