The Grounded Mother
A six-week, psychologically grounded programme for understanding more clearly what's making things difficult, changing how you relate to what gets in the way, and making more room for the life and relationships that matter to you.
Work through six structured modules in your own time, with video lessons, guided practices and a workbook to help you apply what you're learning to your own life.

Sometimes what you're navigating needs more individual attention.
One-to-one coaching starts with your particular circumstances — what's happening, what feels difficult, what you keep coming up against, and what you want to be different.
Rather than following a set programme, our work develops around what emerges for you, drawing on psychology, mindfulness and transformational coaching to help you see things more clearly and find a way forward that reflects what matters to you.

SELF-PACED RESOURCES
Something smaller to start with
Sometimes you don't need a full programme or one-to-one support. These resources offer practical ways to begin, in your own time and at your own pace.
Stress & Anxiety Toolkit
A practical, self-paced course for the times when stress or anxiety is taking up more space than you'd like.
Learn different ways to work with difficult thoughts, physical tension and moments when everything feels too much — with practical tools and guided exercises you can return to whenever they're useful.
Explore the Toolkit →Deluxe Meditation Pack
A collection of guided meditations for when you want a little space to pause, settle and reconnect with the present.
With practices ranging from just a few minutes to longer sessions, you can choose what fits the time and capacity you have that day — whether you want to begin or end the day more intentionally, or simply take a moment in the middle of it.

Workshops & Events
Workshops & Events
In-person spaces to step out of the usual pace of the day and experience the work in a different way.
From workshops and talks to movement, mindfulness and sound-based events, each offers a chance to explore, practise and connect in a shared setting — with experiences designed to be useful beyond the time we spend together.

ABOUT MARIA
The person behind the work
I’m Maria O’Hara, a psychologist and transformational coach. My work brings together psychology, mindfulness and coaching to support women through the psychological and emotional complexities of motherhood.
