MotherCircle is a supportive container to help you move out of confusion and into clarity, all within a community of fierce mamas.
What will the classes cover?
Each week there is a new theme for us to cover, deepening our connection to ourselves and one another.
MotherCircle is founded by Kimberly Ann Johnson.
ARC 1
Entering motherhood is a rite of passage often not seen and honoured in our culture. We'll dive into motherhood as an initiatory underworld journey and learn how to be present with it.
Becoming aware of the cyclical nature of life can help us tune into the cycles within us as mothers. We'll harvest the innate wisdom that lies within by aligning with the cycles in and around us.
Explore the five universal postpartum needs that are necessary for postpartum recovery. No matter where you are in your journey, learn how to tend to your body and mind and build Mother Culture together.
Explore the predator/prey dynamic and how this can impact our mothering experiences. We'll learn a powerful framework for understanding and regulating our nervous system.
ARC 2
Birth is an initiatory event that also births us into a new being. We'll gather the gems from our birth experience and explore the ways they can enhance and inform our motherhood journeys.
There may be a divide between your sexual self and your mother self. We'll explore the intersection of Mother and Lover and learn the tools to become more at home in our bodies.
We'll explore the relationship between mothering, work, and self-worth. Learn the tools to anchor and nourish your worth as part of your mothering.
We are influenced by our rich motherline as well as the mothers around us. Together we'll determine what values we want to carry forward that guide our mothering and our future lineage.

YOUR MOTHERCIRCLE FACILITATOR
ALANA BATTISTON
After giving birth to my daughter, my tower crumbled. I felt an enormous sense of loss and I lacked the support to help me get through it. Where was my village?
I felt grief around my previous self and my fragmented lineage. What happened to my motherline and the wisdom that lies within it?
I knew there was a deeper calling for me, a path that allowed me to draw on the deep wisdom that comes from my rich motherline. A path that allowed me to integrate and gather the gems from my own motherhood journey.
I gathered in circle with Kimberly Ann Johnson and other mamas with a similar mission, and went on to become a MotherCircle facilitator.
After giving birth to twin boys in 2024, my motherhood journey is evolving in ways I never imagined. MotherCircle has given me the space, the tools, and anchoring practices to move through all phases of motherhood thus far.
Bringing the unseen to light has nourished me deeply and brings me great purpose to what I can offer other mothers.
My vision for facilitating comes from a call within my heart to gather with others to share, connect, grieve, and celebrate all aspects of motherhood.
May this work have ripple effects on those around us and feed into future generations.
