Mother U with Rachel Norman
Motherhood isn’t about perfection — it’s about finding your footing, building your home life with intention, and growing right alongside your kids (because spoiler: none of us have arrived yet).
At Mother U, we talk about family rhythms that feel natural, home systems that give you breathing room, boundaries that protect what matters most, and mindsets that help you mother from a place of peace instead of pressure. It’s about creating a home you actually want to live in — one where you stay connected to yourself and your family without running on fumes.
This isn’t a pep talk you’ll forget by nap time — it’s real, practical encouragement for the real, everyday work of being a mom.

- Why some kids struggle with unstructured time
- How boredom can act as an “escape hatch” from bigger feelings or situations
