Boundaries During the Holidays

Join our Live Interactive Online Workshop | Empowering Yourself Through Motherhood

December’s Topic - Boundaries During the Holidays

Join our monthly online workshop. It’s a safe space for mothers coming together to support each other's journeys toward personal growth, healing and empowerment as you navigate the everchanging realities of motherhood.

Each month we focus on a different topic and invite discussion amongst the participants. This group is led by Registered Master Therapeutic Counsellor Jen Reddish who has nearly 14 year experience as a counsellor and LOVES supporting women as they journey through motherhood.

December: Boundaries with Family During the Holidays

“Jen is the master of boundaries” - Jen has been told this a lot by clients and friends alike and she is proud to say that she works hard on boundaries in her own life and LOVES teaching her clients how to set and maintain healthy boundaries to support themselves in their journey towards living an empowered, authentic life.

Join us for an interactive online workshop that will help you to navigate the challenges of holiday interactions by setting and maintaining healthy boundaries. This workshop will provide you with practical tools and strategies to communicate your needs effectively and prioritize the well being of yourself and your family of creation over this holiday season! 

What You’ll Learn:

  • The importance of setting boundaries during the holidays & what types of boundaries you need to consider - physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, energetic, etc! 

  • Identifying personal triggers and recognizing unhealthy dynamics

  • Effective communication techniques for expressing your boundaries

  • Strategies for self care amidst the busy-ness of this season

  • Tips for setting and maintaining both spoken and unspoken boundaries (how to do it!) 

  • Tips for managing expectations from family and friends

Who Should Attend:

This workshop is ideal for women who want to feel EMPOWERED through this holiday season as you confidently set and maintain boundaries to protect yourself and your family of creation while maintaining healthy respectful relationships with others.

Wednesday Dec 4th 8-9:30pm MST on zoom

This group is a great alternative to our monthly EYTM online group therapy sessions if you can’t commit in advance or you’re looking for something at a more accessible price point. For this drop-in group, you can register ahead of time or on the day. Spots are limited so make sure that you register in advance.

Current members of the EYTM group therapy series get complimentary access to this discussion group!

 

What to Expect:

You will be encouraged to reflect on the topic prior to joining the session, and come prepared with questions and examples from your personal experiences.

Jen will welcome you into the group with some gentle prompts and psycho-education on the topic when applicable. She will encourage discussion amongst the group participants and help you to understand more about how you relate to the topic while you develop insight and self awareness. You will leave each group session with a sense of community connection - feeling seen, heard, supported with new skills/strategies to help you navigate the topic discussed.

Don’t feel comfortable sharing? No problem, you can join in and listen to the discussions being had and take away what resonates with you. There is zero pressure to share if you don’t want to! Just come along and participate in a way that feels safe for you.
