I’d love to genuinely know if there are other mums out there wanting this like I do?
I’m a mama of three on the Gold Coast who, in all honesty, has spent years searching for a real community of mothers. Women who are devoted to their kids AND to themselves. Mothers who are in the thick of it but still crave the things that light them up as a woman, alongside other mums who genuinely get it.
I’m creating a new community on the Gold Coast centred around regular, curated experiences for like-minded mothers. Think a Saturday morning Pilates class followed by coffee, an afternoon pottery and wine workshop or a meet and soak session at a local bathhouse. Experiences that are social, nourishing and exclusively for members.
Would you go to something like this?
Has anyone ever just given up everything to start over?
I am a single mother. I have a career, I own a home, and I grew up in this town. There’s nothing pulling me anywhere else, but I look around and I hate everything about our life… the people are fake, and no one actually cares about me or my children. I have no friends, my family is so toxic, and I have no one. Like I see people I know everywhere I go, but when I fill out forms for my kids and get to the emergency contact section, there’s not a single person I can list there. It’s very eye opening to be alone while surrounded by people. I feel like I’d be happier surrounded by no one and feeling alone without the fake niceties and drama. I fantasize about selling my house and moving somewhere else all the time, but then the world feels so big, and I feel so small, and I don’t know where to even begin looking for a new place to start over. I just know I need to leave and start over for my children. Has anyone ever done anything like this? How did you decide where to go? How did you switch everything about your life at once (home, career, routines, etc.)? Did you regret it? Please any advice you can give me.
