ReMother
A 12-week Heroine’s Journey
for fiercely courageous daughters ready to heal the mother wound & nurture their inner child.
Doors Open: March 16th - 23rd, 2026
Re What?
ReMothering is discovering the Inner Mother archetype - the one inside who has the capacity, resourcing, and skill to attune to and meet the needs of your Inner Child.
Because no amount of life hacks, self-care, or atomic habits will touch our early childhood wounds without deeper understanding and healing.
The attachments we formed when we were small shape how we relate with others for life.
How our needs were met or not, and how we were taught to relate to our own needs shapes our relationship to having needs for life.
Our mothers - no matter how wonderful, neglectful, or somewhere in-between - are only human, in the face of our necessary projections onto them of the Great Mother archetype.
The Mother Wound, the chasm between what we needed and what we received, becomes our Heroine’s Journey that we must cross in order to uncover what we carried all along:
The medicine - the skills, capacity, and resourcing - to meet our own needs.
This is YOUR epic story of reclaiming your gifts, healing your wounds, and awakening to your own power.
Together, we will tend to codependent patterns, explore the Mother and Maiden archetypes, embark on a journey of understanding our inner child, and discover how to nurture and nourish ourselves in the present moment so we can expand to our most authentic self.
This is the beginning of how we birth the Matriarchy from the ashes of the Patriarchy.
Constantly worrying you are doing something wrong, or not doing what you should be…
Discounting your own gifts, purpose, and worth…
Feeling in literal danger (racing heart, muscle tension, shallow breathing) even when you’re not…
Feeling unloved or unlovable, incapable of giving and receiving love, and afraid you will end up alone…
Feeling overly responsible for others’ wellbeing, happiness, and life fulfillment…
Feelings of overwhelming guilt and shame when you care for yourself or receive pleasure, rest, or nurturance…
Feeling ashamed or afraid of living your own life, asking for what you want, or even admitting it to yourself…
Feeling completely abandoned, alone, isolated, and disconnected from others - even when others reach out to you…
ReMother’s Message
You are seen
You are safe
You are good
You are loved
You are your own
You are not alone
Calling all witches and savage daughters: Ready to smash the patriarchy by de-conditioning the fear, helplessness, & over responsibility you were raised with?

I cannot thank Ellen enough for helping me emotionally, strategically, and spiritually through this transformation!

The Heroine’s Journey
Illusion:
We were all taught certain things would keep us safe. Much of this was illusion. Our mothers often were the “Henchmen” of the patriarchy, reinforcing these rules and norms at home because they believed it was the best preparation for our adulthood.
Betrayal:
We realize we have been betrayed - whether by our family of origin, a lover, a career path that didn’t deliver what was promised to us. We learn the hard way that our ladder was leaning up against the wrong wall, and what we really needed was not at the top.
Awakening:
Our eyes are opened to the truth of the world - to what we really needed vs. what we got. We make a conscious choice to individuate - perhaps from our biological mother, our family of origin, or a codependent relationship - in order to discover our true soul.
Descent:
We begin to descend into our own shadow work, casting off all the unhealthy replacements for our unmet needs along the way (e.g. addictions, toxic relationships, delusion). This was deeply uncomfortable and, depending on the amount of attachment we had to release, may have taken years.
Eye of the Storm:
Our dark night of the soul. The lowest we’ve ever felt. But also the most authentic. Nowhere to go but up. Sitting in the despair, the grief, the trauma, the shame, the rage. Finally, we are ready to feel it all and move through it with self-compassion.
Death:
The inner maiden archetype is no more. That version of us had to die in order for the sovereign ReMother to be reborn. No longer will we be the subservient, over-functioning, fawning daughter of the patriarchy.
Support:
We heal our relationship trauma, form healthy attachments, and learn we are worthy of asking for what we need and desire. We learn to communicate, set and respect healthy boundaries, give and receive love. We receive support from others.
Rebirth:
We are reborn as the ReMother archetype, capable of applying the same relational care to her own inner parts, especially nurturing the Inner Child. We attune to the Inner Child regularly, giving ourselves the presence, understanding, and care we always needed. We receive it because we know we’re worthy.
Return:
We return to our former lives completely altered. People can sense a shift and either are repelled or drawn to us depending on their own level of healing. We lead by example, showing others what’s possible when we nurture our Inner Child. Together we birth the Matriarchy, a new era of relating with mutual care and centering the resources that sustain life.
“I have worked with other coaches in the past but nobody has ever made me feel as seen and understood as Ellen.”
“I always left our sessions feeling lighter and more aware of things I can work on (now or in the future!) to improve my business and relationships with clients, my network, partners, friends, and even family.”
"I walked away from one session with several new ideas and ways to master my inner critic. Thank you so much for being part of my leadership and confidence-building journey. I hope to continue to be a student of Ellen’s, gaining the wisdom she has to share - highly recommend!"
“As a direct result of our time together, I gained the courage to take a risk toward career promotion that I had put off for 8 years. I honestly think I would have put it off another year at least without the encouragement and skillful guidance from Ellen to come back home to myself, my strengths, my authentic leadership zone of genius, and my confidence.”
“I feel much more confident in my skills to self-regulate now and navigate negative triggers. I also appreciate the outside perspective that Ellen has on the strategic side - I am launching courses and she helped me discover many new ways to automate and optimize my business!”
"Ellen has such a beautiful way of holding space and cutting through the fog to help you find clarity."
“Just three sessions with Ellen brought me back home to my old self BUT with new skills, resources, and insights.”
“She is an incredible leader and coach and the space she creates is so juicy and genuine and it feels amazing.”
“Ellen is an incredibly skilled and empathetic listener, who intuitively knows exactly the right thing to say to initiate internal shifts for me.”
