Transform How You Show Up As A Mum...
Imagine it's Friday, and you haven't yelled at your kids all week
What if the parenting moments you struggle with most...no longer left you feeling guilty and exhausted?
What if there was a simple framework that could change how you respond in those moments when everything feels overwhelming as a mum?
-
The moments when your kids are melting down
-
When you're losing your patience
-
And you can feel yourself about to explode
What if learning that framework could change how you parent?
Would you want to know it? If the answer is yes, read on to find out more
If you’re here, you already care deeply about how you show up
You’re probably:
Feeling overwhelmed in the moment
Or
Trying your best… but still reacting in ways you wish you hadn’t
There is no judgement here.
I’ve been there.
And I know how shameful that can feel.
I promise that things can change
This isn’t about getting it right.
This isn’t about trying harder.
This is about learning how to work with your body because that's how your nervous system finds its way back to calm
Through simple art therapy and body-based practices, you’ll:
- recognise what’s happening in your body
- express what you’re holding instead of carrying it
- regulate your emotions in real time
And the biggest shift…
When faced with challenges (because they will happen), you'll be able to pivot without the overwhelm and focus on what matters most. You'll remain centred and consistent right when your kids need you the most, and that means you'll make better choices for you and your family, even when life feels full.
So, what changes?
Your 7:42am meltdown.
Before: you yell, then the shame spiral starts.
After: you pause, come back to calm, and the moment passes without the guilt following you to work.
The school run falls apart.
Before: it feels personal and you tip into overwhelm.
After: you pivot, do what matters most, and move on with your day.
Your week.
Before: wondering if this is just who you are under pressure.
After: it's Friday and you haven't yelled at your kids all week.
And what about your kids?
Once you're able to come back to your body and feel calmer in those overwhelming moments:
You will be an emotionally safe space for your kids.
You will be a calm and consistent presence.
And that means your kids will begin opening up to you.
Instead of yelling and screaming and slamming doors, there will be more calm.
You'll be able to work through things together in a way that feels safe for you and your kids.
And as your kids get older, they'll be more likely to form healthier relationships.
Instead of being attracted to people who:
- don't know how to manage their emotions
- get angry at the drop of a hat
- don't know how to find calm
They'll be more likely to attract partners and friends who:
- know how to be mature in their handling of difficult situations; and
- can get through overwhelming moments with ease
I know that's what you want for your kids.
And I know that's what you want for you too.
Hi, I'm Tanya
a Masters-qualified Arts Therapist and single mum of two teenage boys, and for the past five years I’ve been helping women regulate their nervous systems and reconnect with themselves through art therapy and body-based practices.
Before this work, I spent over 15 years managing and facilitating community mental health programs.
And what I have learnt along the way is this…
When you’re already overwhelmed, the last thing you need is more information
You need:

“It helped me feel more connected”
Jennifer, Calm & Connected Mum participant
"I really like the [art therapy] process in [Calm & Connected Mum], that's been my favourite bit. I've really enjoyed exploring it as a way to feel more connected...it did really get me reflecting about the emotions and how it looked on the page...
I just want to keep doing it as a practice, keep having it as part of my toolbox."
Still not sure?
I get it, you want things to change but you've tried other things before, and they haven't worked.
Let me share a bit about my story...
There was a time when I always felt on edge...
Like many mums, there were moments when the overwhelm would take over and I would wonder why I couldn’t stay calm when things got difficult.
👉 I tried reading books
👉 I tried following advice
👉 I tried talking it out
But nothing changed how I responded in the moment
"The real shift happened when I began working with my body instead of just my mind."
I discovered that my body was speaking its own language and the more I was able to quieten my mind, the louder my inner voice became.
It was through art therapy that I was finally able to work with my body and regulate my nervous system...and through this, I was finally able to understand what was happening inside me and how to come back to calm.
Nothing was ever the same again
This is what it looks like in real life...
Not long ago, both of my boys woke during the night.
I could feel my anxiety rising almost immediately.
And I noticed the thought:
"Why can't I stay calm?"
But instead of trying to fight it like I had in the past:
👉 I recognised what was happening in my body
👉 I paused
👉 I regulated
And I responded completely differently
Instead of raising my voice or becoming so frustrated that I said something I would regret...
I was able to stay present with my boys and regulate with them.
No tears, no yelling and before long they were back to sleep.
Calm parenting doesn’t come from trying harder
It comes from learning how to regulate your nervous system through your body
And when you learn how to do that…
You pause before reacting
And when that happens…
You respond differently
And when you respond differently…
Your home AND life is calmer
Your children feel it too.
I'm ready to find my way back to calm
“Her authenticity and genuine care truly shine through.”
— Jen Frees
Tanya creates a warm, calming space through her sessions that makes you feel instantly at ease.
Her art therapy isn’t about your artistic ability or creating a perfect piece. She guides you through the process of expressing yourself and connecting with your inner voice.
I can’t recommend her sessions highly enough.
"She provides a safe and nurturing environment" - Kate Johnson
Tanya was both warm and engaging as she gently guided our group to use all of our senses to connect and create. She encouraged each of us to explore and release our emotions through the art-making process. It was a precious time and a joy to be part of.
So, why art therapy?
When you're overwhelmed, your rational brain goes offline. That's just how it works under threat. So anything that relies on thinking or talking is trying to reach a part of your brain that's temporarily unavailable. But...
...simple art therapy practices that use colour, texture and shape speak directly to your body and nervous system.
No thinking required.
"That's why it works so fast"
Yes, I want to try this.
Spots are limited...
so if you are feeling the pull towards a calmer life for you and your kids don’t wait. I don’t want you to miss out.
And remember this is a small, interactive group - by joining you will have a unique opportunity to shape the program to meet your specific needs.
It’s essentially a tailor made program just for you
You get to try this without any pressure
