What our Motherland Village Members say

“Expectations were blown out of the water!”
Steph has created a village for us, one that was missing completely. It has blown my expectations out of the water with how incredible our “village” is. I feel like I know them all, and I have never seen/met them in person – now that is special.
Georgie H
“I can’t believe how quickly friendships have formed ”
What an incredible program! Living remotely I missed out on an allocated mother’s group, but this one has certainly made up for it. The friendships and connections formed in 6 weeks is amazing! I love my group and it’s so great to have a group of ladies that understand and can relate to life on the land. Steph was wonderful at guiding us through the 6 weeks. Everyone needs a Motherland Village!
Emma K
“An unexpected gift from this program has been the personal growth I’ve experienced”
I’m so proud of myself for engaging in Motherland Village. I was nervous to do ‘blind dating’ for friends but an unexpected gift from this program has been the personal growth I’ve experienced with the gentle guidance from Steph each week to be authentic, vulnerable and open to putting ourselves out there. I’ve absolutely loved getting to know my group of women and know we’ll continue to bubble away as growing friends for years to come.
Laura L
“Motherland Village is a godsend for us all!”
Our local area doesn’t have a mothers group, so I feel like I missed out on a lot of support. I participated in the trial for Motherland Village hoping to form some new friendships. While it isn’t possible to catch up face to face, I wasn’t sure how it would all work but after our first Zoom meeting, and a few messages back and forth, I knew I would form friendships with these amazing ladies.
Caitlyn
“It’s had a positive impact on my mental health ”
Being part of Motherland Village has been wonderful. There are many great things about raising children on the land but the social isolation can be hard, especially during the pandemic. Being able to chat to other rural mums who understand what it is like has made me feel more connected, supported and has had a positive impact on my mental health.
