About Us

Your Mama Journey was born from a deeply personal experience and a profound realization. Our founder, Jade, an accredited mental health social worker in Australia, found herself navigating the complexities of motherhood after an unexpected emergency C-section. As she held her newborn daughter, she felt a mix of joy and confusion, realizing that the journey of motherhood was far more intricate than she had ever imagined.

Jade's path to this moment was as diverse as it was inspiring. Her passion for women's empowerment and social justice led her to intern with the UN's HeForShe campaign, advocating for gender equality on a global scale. Her dedication to making a difference took her to the mountains of Peru and the islands of the Philippines, where she worked on international development projects, witnessing firsthand the strength and resilience of women in diverse communities.

Returning to her Australian roots, Jade channeled her experiences into a career in counseling, becoming an accredited social worker. She thought she was prepared for anything life could throw at her. Then came motherhood – a whirlwind that swept her off her feet and opened her eyes to a new world of challenges and triumphs.

As Jade recovered from her C-section, she found herself grappling with unexpected emotions. The birth hadn't gone as planned, and she felt a sense of loss for the experience she had envisioned. In those quiet moments, feeding her daughter in the middle of the night, she realized something crucial was missing – a space for mothers to process their birth stories, to reflect on their journey, and to find empowerment in their experiences.

But Jade's journey didn't end there. As she returned to work, she was shocked to witness firsthand the lack of support within the medical system. She saw countless women struggling with their postpartum journeys, many without the help and guidance they desperately needed. Jade felt fortunate that her training and clinical experience had equipped her to navigate this challenging period. Yet, she couldn't help but wonder: how many women around the world were facing these struggles without the privileges and resources she had?

This realization sparked the idea for Your Mama Journey. Jade poured her heart into creating a guided journal that would help mothers navigate the complex emotions of the postpartum period. She drew from her own experiences, her professional background, and the stories of countless women she had met throughout her journey.

Your Mama Journey isn't just about recording memories – it's about healing, growth, and self-discovery. It's a safe space for mothers to explore their feelings, celebrate their strengths, and find peace with their experiences. From the first flutter of pregnancy to the sleepless nights of new motherhood, our journal guides women through every step of their transformation.
