Just wanted to share this picture of my kids in their new epic hats from your shop. Ms Four loves it, Mr One yet to be persuaded that hats are great but he’s keeping this one on pretty well. So great I don't have to worry about their face or necks for sun protection. And they look very cute in them :)

Hey B

I just wanted to drop in and say thank you for the MMV.
I’ve been having a really rough time recently with a lot being required of me and subsequently I haven’t been in the village for a good 6 weeks. I just haven’t had the time or capacity for anything more than surviving (which is ironic I guess since I wanted to join the village to figure out how to thrive instead of just survive).
Anyway I dropped the kids off with my mum today and spend a good 5 hours or so making notes from week 1 and catching up on week 2 and 3. I really enjoyed thinking about the nervous system as I have a science background and it just spoke to me. I cried thinking about how to get back into the green zone. My 3.5 year old this week has been reminding to ‘do your deep breaths mummy’ when I’ve been yelling and in the complete overwhelm zone where I feel so out of control of my actions. It was humbling.

I don’t know particularly why I’m writing this to you, except maybe I’m feeling a need to be heard and you feel like a safe space.
Hoping to join the connection session this week but likely on mute as my 20 month old is only sleeping in 30 minute blocks and mostly needs to be held by me or he screams the house down and wakes the big kid.

Thank you for all you do. It’s doing far more than you could ever know.

I had a birth debrief session with Kylie and it was exactly what I needed to let go of some frustrations I had about my birth experience. Kylie was so wonderful to chat to, she understood me so well and I received the closure I needed in one session!

I just wanted to give a shout out to how amazing Nat’s Power and Sweat and Lift Me Up classes are. I’m an exercise physiologist and my standards for group exercise instructors are pretty high (and I’m mostly disappointed!). However, Nat is such an excellent instructor - her classes are balanced, engaging, well cued and she’s awesome at considering different body needs (hello prolapse) and offering alternatives. Such an amazing (and very affordable) resource; thank you and especially thanks to Nat!

I signed up to the live classes a few weeks ago in an effort to start moving my PP body. My third babe is 8 months old, 10kg and off the chart for height. Carrying him, getting him in and out of his cot, co-sleeping and rocking him to sleep was wrecking my body. I was stiff, my joints ached, I can’t extend my arms or twist without wincing, my migraines were out of control. I started doing Nat’s 15 minute lengthen classes last week. They’ve been an absolute game changer. The movement I have! The relief and release, and my migraines have lessened so much. I even managed a half hour session one day.

I’m looking forward to trying the other classes when I feel called to them and have capacity. For now, I’m feeling safe and grateful for Nat and her quick sessions to ease my muscles and give me my health back.

Thank you for making these classes accessible and extremely affordable! It’s made my post party recovery so much easier and fulfilling second time around!

My first tin was running low so I searched the site to replace it, totally forgetting that it actually is nipple butter. It is honestly the best healing butter for anywhere on your body. Clears up nappy rash after just a couple of applications, great for cuts, lips etc. Highly recommend this beautiful product.

This is a fantastic, thoughtful book that provides a really beautiful introduction into the vast world of Indigenous language. It's gorgeous illustrations and colours make my baby want to read it over and over again. Perfect for small children and adults as well, who can learn about our beautiful Indigenous culture

This is a lovely book with amazing illustrations. My little one loves it!

These little balls of greatness were an absolute god send during my labour 6 days ago. When the tens machine was maxed out and I couldn’t feel it anymore, these little babies did the job. I’ll be recommending these to EVERYONE

I cannot express how much this birth debrief has gifted me and my relationship with my son. I worked with Kylie (who was just incredible), she not only helped me feel truly seen and heard but she also helped me work through a lot of big feelings and to see more clearly where they had come from to allow my healing journey to begin. We focused on my first birth (my son is now 4), as I knew my backlog of feelings has been impacting our relationship since he was born. In the 6 or so weeks since our call my son and I are now closer than ever, and where he used to prefer his dad over me almost all of the time he now asks for me to be the one who helps or does things with him more and more. I truly feel like all the feelings that were blocking our connection have been cleared and I again I can't express how life changing this birth debrief was for me. I'm planning to do another one for my second birth soon. Thank you with all my heart Kylie.

We had the most amazing chats with Josie! She was kind, compassionate and helped us so much in processing our first son’s birth. Josie was a key difference in our second son’s birth - she gave us the confidence for a vbac and we were able to navigate the post partum period in such a better way. My only regret is that we waited 2 years to do this - we should have done it so much sooner! I can’t recommend enough

I came to the Village just before the birth of my first baby, and had no idea how truly transformational it would be. Being held by B and the wonderful group of women through my first post partum has honestly set me up for the most amazing start to our life as a family.

My relationship with my partner is tenfold stronger and meant we have been able to navigate the sleepless nights and highs and lows of parenting while our connection only gets deeper.

After years of talk therapy I thought I’d done the work but the Village took me far deeper, even just from witnessing others. Cannot reccomend it enough!!
