The Sovereign Mother
for mothers get free end suffering get free for mothers grow up get free for mothers
A Sovereign Mother has reclaimed her free will to live & create with fire in her heart & power in her veins
A Sovereign Mother has been Liberated from
society's dungeons, her mind's cages, & her body's traps
A Sovereign Mother is no longer a motherless child on the inside, overburdened & terrified of her feelings, her needs, & her responsibilities
You've spent decades practicing how to hide from life and its pain. How to cope with emotional isolation. Emotional waves that tear you apart on the inside & cause you to crawl through relentless internal turmoil.
You have been tolerating the intolerable the best you could.
In your motherhood, this keeps you from beauty, joy, and a quality of presence and connection with your children and family you spent your childhood dreaming of finally having one day.
The Sovereign Mother is an olive branch, extended out to you so can immediately begin reclaiming freedom.
Practices of body, heart, mind, and soul, and spirit that liberate you from unnecessary suffering in parenting, marriage, relationships, and life purpose.
Implement your inner work. Change your life. Get free.


LIBERATION for Mothers,
both being, & becoming
The Sovereign Mother is a three-month long container for mothers who are ready to SHOW UP to life honestly, vulnerably, and wholeheartedly. This is a connection and practice circle...creative space where you can bring your full self, your stories, your struggles, and your joy, and be met with presence, care, and understanding.
For three months we'll gather for 90 minutes, and create a rhythm of connection, listening, learning, and integration that sustains us through motherhood's invitation for us to return to POWER and COURAGE and SKILL.
The Sovereign Mother
Welcome
I'm Rebecca Lyddon
I am a Mother Circle Facilitator trained under Kimberly Ann Johnson, a Birth Story Medicine Facilitator trained under Pam England, a Conscious Parenting Coach trained under Jolette Jai, an Early Waldorf Childhood Educator trained under Robin Bacchus, and Program Director + Lead Trainer at The Jai Institute for Parenting.
I am mama to three, ages 12, 8 and 8months!
As a deeply sensitive, immensely imaginative, & eternally curious being who consistently grapples with a desire to be known and relate intimately with others, while also shielding myself from vulnerability and hiding from connection, I am enamored by a mother's emotional needs like: belonging, community, friendship, witnessing, presence, and shared compassion...and all the ways we reject what we most long for. Keeping ourselves and our children stuck in patterns of disconnect & suffering.
As an artist, I am seduced by the transformative power of both the written and spoken word, singing, drawing, moving, and sharing my truths creatively.
As an armchair neuroscientist and parenting philosophy enthusiast, I am enthralled by human development, 'right relationship', and how to raise children based on who they are uniquely and individually.


The Sovereign Mother
is for mothers who...
-
value a space to drop the masks & get real about your day-to-day experiences as a mother + person (your kids could be 1 or 41 years old!)
-
ache for an inner voice that cares for you, treats you gently,& helps you discern what you need & how to take aligned action
-
need a consistent place to practice being honest, being heard, & trusting yourself
-
are learning that you have needs! & how to take care of them! & sometimes get really scared & overwhelmed at needing to have your own back
-
are gently rewiring their brain & bodies back to presence & love, after decades of dissociation, freeze, & fawning
-
want to get out of the never ending loops of their mind & slowly back into their hearts & bodies
-
would greatly benefit from a bit (ahem, a lot) of tenderness, sisterhood, and loving kindness of intentional connection

What We'll Do + How We'll Be

Practice Profound Presence
Together, we will practice being present with what is, strengthening our ability to meet ourself, hold ourself, speak from our heart, & give ourself what we truly need.
Strengthen your ability to be with yourself tenderly & boldly.
Play & Get Creative
Together, we will practice dropping out of head & into our hearts & bodies. From here, we will play, explore, create, & share our inner world creatively.
Strengthen your ability to express & be authentically without inhibition.
Develop Devotion Commitment to Self & Community
Together, we will practice attuning to our emotional needs, our desires & commitments, while both witnessing & receiving within compassionate community.
Allow yourself to be held in connection as you deepen your devotion to you & your needs.


Is This Circle Right for You?
The Sovereign Mother is designed for mothers who are excited about consistent connection and ready to commit to a full year of showing up.
You feel comfortable-enough being honest and 'real' on Zoom (or are willing to lean into being!) and find value in that kind of intimate, online container.
You're not in immediate crisis or need dedicated one-to-one care, rather you want to contribute to community & would be greatly supported by other women insight & witnessing from other mothers walking their path.
You recognize the value of slowing down, tuning in, & developing an inner warmth you can rely on to carry you, embolden you, & guide you in both your being, & becoming.
Our Circle Dates
Below are the days/times we will meet weekly for 90 minutes, beginning Friday, April 17th at 1pm CDT, and each consecutive Friday until July 3rd. All calls are recorded & sent out within 48 hours of class.
The Sovereign Mother FAQ
-
What if I cannot make the live call?
each session is recorded & the recording is sent out to our entire group within 48 hours after we meet
-
What if I feel more shy about being on Zoom or sharing with people I don't know?
I hold a both/and practice: if you sign up for this space, prepare to practice meeting your edge socially. And, you will never be forced to participate if you feel distressed in the moment.
-
Is this a place I can bring 'mundane' parenting challenges and receive strategic advice?
The focus of this space is not necessarily strategic, but rather, supporting you to land back in center + your heart, where "the way knows the way"
-
How many women will be in this circle?
There will be a minimum of 4 mothers in this circle, for it happen, and a maximum of 8.
-
Do I need to be an artist or writer to enjoy this circle?
You do not need to formally identify as either an artist or a writer. Any writing will be low pressure and focused solely on expressing yourself honestly; not to any formal artistic standard.
-
I feel fairly confident with my emotional needs, will I still benefit from this space?
Absolutely. Think of it like this: our circle needs ALL stages of development and confidence
