FROM OVERWHELMED TO EMPOWERED

A Workshop to Help Moms Ditch Guilt and Parent with More Calm, Confidence, and Joy

Are you tired of feeling guilty, overwhelmed, or stuck in self-doubt as a mom?

You’re not alone. The pressure to be a "good mom" while balancing everything else can feel exhausting. But what if you could shift from guilt and self-criticism to confidence and calm?

Join Dr. Angele Close, psychologist and motherhood specialist, for a FREE workshop designed to help moms break free from guilt, reconnect with themselves, and show up as the parent they truly want to be.

In this workshop, you’ll learn:

✅ Where mom guilt comes from and why its so common

✅ A simple yet powerful framework to help you release it (Internal Family Systems)

✅ Practical tools to shift from frustration to clarity and confidence

✅ How to parent from a place of self-trust instead of self-doubt

This workshop is for moms who feel exhausted, lost, or frustrated - and ready for a mindset shift—because you deserve to feel good in motherhood.

Workshops and Retreats for Your Team

More companies are joining the ranks of Google, Facebook, Lululemon, and Nike by providing space and time for their staff to learn and practice mindfulness meditation. They’ve recognized the measurable positive benefits, such as enhancing performance, productivity, emotional resilience, and leadership acumen based on findings from rigorous scientific research.

Some of the benefits from practicing mindfulness and compassion in skill-based training programs are:

  • Sharpened focus and better cognitive control

  • Greater clarity, creativity, and divergent thinking

  • Reduced stress (reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression)

  • Increases in positive emotion like joy, compassion, and gratitude

  • Resilience and greater emotional balance



I’d Love to Help

Employees are keen to attend mindfulness training at work. Consider the 6+ months waitlist for Google’s mindfulness-based Search Inside Yourself program!

Given the high costs of sick days and mental health stress leave, and the substantial impacts of COVID we’re only beginning to see and understand, you want to do everything possible in your role to support your employees’ wellbeing.

Providing them with training in awareness and compassion practices is a significant offering both to demonstrate a culture of care and compassion while also facilitating skillful training that can lead to a stronger team that will only positively affect the bottom line.

“Angele ran a beautiful workshop for my online membership community called Self-compassion: A Transformational Practice. Members loved her soothing voice and delivery style and still talk today about the techniques she taught them to override the voice of their inner bully and show themselves the love they deserve. We are grateful to Angele for this wonderful gift!”

“We partnered with Dr. Close to offer weekly mindfulness and meditation sessions to our employees for a month. The sessions were well attended and feedback was resoundingly positive! Dr. Close delivered material that was excellent for a very diverse group of people, literally around the world, with wildly varying experiences with mindfulness and meditation. In addition to top-notch content, it was a pleasure to do business with Dr. Close!”
