Why Start a Mom's Group?
“It is lonely at times. You do feel quite isolated. But
actually, so many other mothers are going through exactly what you’re going
through, it’s being brave enough to reach out.”
Motherhood is often painted as a beautiful, fulfilling journey—an endless stream of giggles, first steps, and picture-perfect moments. But what happens when the reality doesn’t match the fairytale? When sleepless nights turn into long, isolating days? When the tiny human depends on you so completely somehow makes you feel lonelier than ever before?
For many mothers, loneliness is an unexpected but profound part of the parenting experience. It’s not just about being physically alone; it’s about the emotional isolation that can creep in, even when surrounded by family. The transition to motherhood often means a shift in identity, routine, and social life. Friends without children may drift away, and suddenly, it can feel like no one truly understands.
Motherhood was never meant to be a solo journey. While loneliness can feel overwhelming, it doesn’t have to be a permanent state.
Starting a mom’s group—whether in person or online—can be the first step in helping women reclaim the sense of connection that so many mothers crave. It can help build your confidence, bring you long lasting friendships, all while doing the same for others.
If you’re feeling isolated, know this: you’re not alone. There’s a community of moms out there that are ready to gather with you with open arms, coffee in hand, and a knowing nod that says, “We’re in this together.”
