Testimonial About Support Circle
“My first Mother’s Day was so very different than the one I celebrated today. Last year I felt very alone and was so riddled with anxiety that I was unable to leave the safety of my little cocoon. I felt like I was on the verge of tears at all times and, in fact, cried on this day one year ago because I didn’t feel at all the way I thought I would/should feel. I was scared and I was ashamed and I was utterly at sea. It took me many more months to emerge and join your group but boy am I glad I did. You, and the women in your group, cracked me wide open and brought me back to life. I will never be able to thank you enough.”
You don’t have to navigate this alone.
