The Mother, May I Community
Community Meet-Up: May 16th 2026
A community for moms who are done asking for permission to be themselves and are committed to restoring their sense of self & sovereignty.
This is community is designed with real mom life in mind, not against it.
This community doesn’t add to your plate, this is where you finally set the plate down and get to question what you’re carrying, and if you really want/need to carry it any more so that when you’re ready to pick that plate back up it feels lighter and easier to carry.
Our conversations are guided with coaching questions and simple activities that help gently rewire the brain from self-abandonment patterns into self-empowerment, so you can start showing up for yourself the same way you’ve always shown up for everyone else.
What Mother May I Actually Is
-
A community with facilitated conversations, activities, and resources that gently reconnect you with yourself on a nervous system level; so you feel the shift from constantly holding it all together to finally feeling held yourself.
Designed to work with the realities of mom life instead of against them or adding more to your plate.
A place to come back to yourself; without fixing or forcing.
A place to get tools to rebuild self-trust and confidence
A space where you don’t have to perform “good mom energy”
A space where you take off the mom hat.
A collective space to do meaningful inner growth work alongside other women; where your progress is celebrated and you’re supported through the moments you feel untethered.
-
A support group where you are forced to participate/share.
A pep-talk-fueled positivity cult
Therapy (but it is therapeutic)
A place where you have to prove you’re burnt out “enough”
NOTE: Allison is a certified, psychology-informed and nervous system–based, identity coach and hypnotherapist, NOT a counselor or therapist.
This community is designed to support self-awareness, self regulation, and personal growth; NOT to diagnose, treat, or replace mental health care.
If you are navigating distress & think you may benefit from clinical support, working with a licensed professional alongside this community is encouraged and supported.

Yes! You can find the Meet-Up Recaps uploaded within 24 hours of our session.
I will also be adding weekly micro-shift activities and downloadable resources for you to stay consistent with your self-connection outside of meet-ups.

That’s okay! If you can’t make it LIVE to each meet-up you can catch what you missed in the “Meet-Up Recaps” section of the community hub.
It will give you a break down of what e discussed, what was shared, and any resources that were given out.
Only full time members have access to the recap. Drop in visitors wont have access until they become a monthly member or 3month member.

Permission to be Imperfect
Saturday, June 13th
10:00am-11:30am
This conversation is about untangling the belief that you always have to do things perfectly to be accepted, loved, respected, or enough. Because constantly trying to avoid mistakes, disappointing people, or “failing” is exhausting.

Permission to Play/Joy
Saturday, June 27th
10:00am-11:30am
Playfulness and joy are productive, but they usually don’t feel like it, especially if you’re used to earning your worth through doing.
This week we’re breaking that pattern in real time. We’re going to talk about it, then experience it through play so your body can start learning a new truth: ease is not wasted time.
Why “Mother, May I?”
You remember that childhood game.
You had to ask permission for every move...trying to get closer to the “mother”.
This community exists because somewhere along the way, moms were taught to ask for permission to get closer to themselves.
Mother, May I is where you stop asking and start choosing:
your voice
your autonomy
your confidence
your next step
THIS is where you learn how to move closer to yourself.
(guilt and shame FREE!)
If this feels right...
You Might Be Here Because…
You love your kids and miss yourself.
You second-guess every decision, even the small ones.
You’re tired of being told to “just take a bath” about burnout. You want to feel energized and present.
You feel disconnected from your confidence, intuition, or voice.
You’re functioning… but barely feeling like you.
You ask your partner for permission to do something in service to yourself (like take a shower.)
And you’re low-key wondering when motherhood became synonymous with self-abandonment.
(Yeah. Same.)
Become a Mother May I Member
Just curious? Want to check out 1 of the meet-ups before fully committing to becoming a full member? Perfect! Join us!
As a monthly member, you get access to the monthly meet-ups (2) and full access to the community hub while your membership is active. Being a monthly member of Mother May I isn’t just support; it’s a signal. You’re telling your mind, body, and spirit: ✨ I am worth it. ✨ I am a priority. ✨ I deserve consistent space and support. It’s a small, steady investment that reinforces a powerful identity shift: I matter; not just once in a while, but ongoing.
The 3-month membership includes the six meet-ups in a 3 month period. (We meet twice a month.) Committing to multiple meet-ups supports consistency and intention; both of which are essential for real, lasting change. When you show up repeatedly, the work deepens, trust builds, and insights have time to integrate. By investing in three months, you’re making a meaningful commitment to your future self and the version of you you’re intentionally becoming.
