Happy Fathers Day!
👶🏻👶🏻👶🏻
A Daddy is not just any father. He shows up every single day with a devotion to his children with a fierce determination to never let them down. To always make them laugh and smile and comfort them when they are down. A daddy goes above and beyond despite the difficulties and challenges that parenthood presents. He makes time for play and time for teaching. He does what he says he will do and his babies know that they can rely on him always.
That’s exactly why our family is so grateful for you Daddy est. Sept 26 2012, May 27 2016, March 11 2019.

Dearest MOhMs,
I hope this email finds you all well. I’m sorry I have not been in touch the last few months. The world situation has me completely distracted and not present. I have had my own challenges and just have not been able to be in contact and post on social media spreading light without feeling untrue to myself.

Firstly, I am SO incredibly grateful for you all! For your love and support for 3.5 years as I built and grew our community and a place for us to all unite in motherhood with open warm hearts and minds. This has been one of my greatest journeys! The opportunity to fulfill a dream of having a yoga studio and building a community of MOhMs who support one another.

MOhM was created when my son was 4 years old and my daughter was 7 months old. I raised my own babies alongside yours in our MOhM studio. Growing the business while raising the 2 of them for the first 2 years, and then being pregnant and having my 3rd baby in my 3rd year of business, was the greatest blessing. I got to experience my own pregnancies and motherhood right there with you. In laughter and sometimes in tears. I can’t tell you how much I learned from all of you. You are incredible, brave, courageous, brilliant women and MOhMs and I hope you never lose sight of that. Your babies and partners are so lucky to have chosen YOU!

The time has come where I have been forced to close our doors to the MOhM studio. The uncertainty of when we will next be able to gather for a class in the studio does not allow for me to be able to carry the expenses of maintaining the empty studio. I am heartbroken to say the least.

MOhM is not going anywhere, just taking a pause. The brand, my concept, my love for community, pregnancy, yoga and motherhood will restructure. I will find new ways. For now, I will be focusing on teaching yoga on zoom (see Instagram for latest updates) and will be available for private consultations. I’m not 100% clear of how or where I will evolve my new business structure, and I can reassure that I will always be available to you in any capacity that I can be. I am passionate about our sisterhood of moms getting the nurturing and loving support we all need.

I have been pretty quiet on social media the last few months, for different reasons.
At this time, I feel the need to post on a heavy matter being highlighted this last week in the case of George Floyd, May his soul Rest In Peace. 😢
I struggle to find the words, so I will resort to speaking from the heart.
My heart hurts. I mourn with all who have suffered an unjust loss at the hands of another.
For a few years now, for several and different reasons, I have had many a night going to sleep having panic attacks and anxiety about the world I’m raising my babies in. Wanting to run away with my family, and then realizing there is nowhere to go.
We have got to be better than this. Our world, despite all the love, good, light, and tolerance, is still ever so intolerant. Intolerant of race, religion, opinion, choice, political stance, color, and of difference itself. We have lost our way.
The time has come for awareness to spread! Awareness that change MUST happen!
I choose to to teach love. I choose to teach respect and tolerance of others differences, sameness, autonomy, choice, decision, race, religion, color. I chose to teach my children to fight for what they believe is fair and just and right. To respect humanity. To act kindly. To have compassion. To stand up!
The vile act of murder of George Floyd this week, one of MANY of its kind, should unite the world! The WORLD needs to wake up! Every citizen of every square inch of the world, NEEDS to come back to humanity and tolerance like never before. Better than before! Enough is enough! I believe this is a symptom of a greater problem!
As I said, I am having a hard time with words right now, and to be honest feeling rather uncomfortable. For lack of the better, the problem is TOLERANCE, or the lack thereof.
That in 2020, after everything this country and our world has experienced, I am even writing this.... makes me speechless. We have so much more work to do! So much further to go! So much to evolve and to learn.
Racism, hate, intolerance, violence - as MOhMs we have an opportunity here! We can create change as we raise the next generation!

MOhM really focuses on establishing community. Not just friendship. Community of women who lift each other up, support one another, encourage one another, and validate one another. THIS is what you will get when you come to our studio or take our classes. An emphasis on unity in motherhood.

02/20/2020

A community of MOhMs who get it, who understand, who can validate your experience, can make you laugh, and support you through the motherhood journey.⁠
Motherhood cannot be done alone. Don’t be afraid to be honest about what you’re going through, chances are so is the MOhM beside you. Don’t be afraid to accept or ask for help, chances are they once needed a hand too.⁠🙏🏼⁠
👩🏽‍🤝‍👩🏻our next series start Tuesday March 3 for 9-12 month babes, and Thursday March 5⁠ for 0-3 and 4-8 month babes. Limited space available, sign up on our site.
