Moms Circles

I am offering in-person moms circles in Poland and Austria as well as online circles.

You can request a moms circle or sign up to my newsletter if you want to stay in the loop about upcoming events!

Why moms circles?

Motherhood is a portal, crazy magical but also intensely challenging. I believe the initiation of motherhood (matrescence) is coded in our DNA, but we need awareness, space and community to fully integrate its teachings and gifts. So, four months after my son’s birth, I started to host circles to create communities where we support each other.

What is a moms circle?

There is something special that happens when we come together with the intention to simply be and share our truths. Motherhood is a wild ride, reshapes our identity, relationships, bodies, and worldview. Yet, in today’s world, many of us navigate it with little space to make sense of it all and away from family, cultural roots, or shared language.

In circles, we create space to say the things that cannot be voiced elsewhere, find recognition in each other’s stories, integrate learnings and find new strength. Together we continue the tradition of women’s circles where we share the unique experiences of this time, gathering in support and solidarity, honoring the ongoing unfolding of the journey of motherhood.

At a circle, we

  • Connect with like-minded moms

  • Exchange wisdom, laughter, and support in a cozy space

  • Share our stories, celebrate our unique journeys

  • Tap into our imagination, playfulness and our body’s wisdom

  • Close with a small ritual to take new energy out into our daily lives

Where to find us

I am currently running monthly in-person circles in Gdynia and the TriCity area. You can follow my Facebook page or request to join our Facebook group to hear about upcoming gatherings and connect with other moms.

I’ve also initiated a circle in Warsaw, you can find their facebook group here.

About me

I’m Theresa—facilitator, community builder and mother of a little boy. I’ve been holding space for communities for over 10 years, across Europe and East Africa, and am now working with mothers. My approach is nervous-system aware and rooted in respect for many ways of knowing and being. I don’t aim to teach or fix and often show up just as I am on any given day, sharing my own struggles.

What the moms say

  • With her warm personality, Theresa offers an open and relaxed atmosphere in the Mom's Circle. There is room for the feelings of all the ladies without any judgement. The feeling of equality that creates sincere connections makes this group unique. Everyone is truly seen and can be completely themselves, which can be a relief in a life where expectations are high and we take on different roles. It is a pleasure to be part of this fantastic group of mothers or future mothers.

  • I joined this circle during a very hopeless time in my life. I was even struggling to express myself. My little daughter slept and woke up within this circle, gently touching the other mothers and sharing her energy. Here, we witness the transformation of many women on their journey through motherhood, and that reminds us we’re not alone. You can be understood, you can laugh, you can cry, you can dance — or simply be still — because this circle doesn’t aim for achievement, it responds to a need. You leave the circle with exactly what you needed. Being part of this circle is just as joyful as being a mother itself. Thank you, Theresa, for making this space possible. We’re so lucky to have you.

  • Theresa's work has had a huge impact on my motherhood journey and on my social life in Warsaw. Her Mums Circles have held me together in a very lonely period. Being a first-time mum abroad is tough. She created a wonderful space for us, part group therapy, part community building, part self-reflection. Theresa is very knowledgable and professional when dealing with groups of people. She is able to efficiently direct a group and bring it into a welcoming space, to spark meaningful conversation and to ignite reflection. Today, thanks to her work and all the connections she created, the English-speaking mum community in Warsaw is richer, we manage to touch new mums each month with new events.
