When Parenting Is Draining You
Overview
When Parenting Is Draining You
Parenting young children can be amazing - and it can be draining in ways we don’t always talk about.
You might feel:
- Tired in a way sleep doesn’t fix
- Mentally 'on' all the time
- Guilty for needing space, rest, or relief
- Like you’re holding everything together for everyone else
- Not completely in control of your reactions
- Disconnected from people around you
- Unsure why it feels so hard, even when you love your children, and others don't 'seem' to be struggling like you.
If any of that resonates, this session is for you.
In this free live webinar, I’ll explore:
- Why parenting can feel so emotionally and mentally draining
- The hidden load many parents are carrying (often without realising it)
- Why this isn’t a personal failing, even though it can feel that way
- What actually helps parents feel steadier and more supported, without adding more pressure
This is not a session about parenting techniques or fixing your child.
It’s about understanding your experience as a parent, with warmth, compassion, and clarity.
Who this session is for
- Parents of babies, toddlers, and young children (under 10)
- Parents who feel depleted, overwhelmed, or stuck in survival mode
- Parents who want understanding and knowledge rather than more advice
What to expect
- A calm, supportive, therapist-led talk
- No pressure to speak or turn your camera on
- Time for general questions
- A replay sent to everyone who registers
