Modern motherhood is fraught with contradictions and oh so difficult to navigate. Balancing out your fierce and all-consuming love with the desire to just be left in peace for a few minutes, juggling the pressure to put someone else's needs first with the sense that you're losing your grasp of the person you once were ... it's all too easy to feel confused, angry and, well, lost.

Jacqueline Kelly knows how you feel and knows how to help. Her honest, compassionate writing is a soothing balm to anyone going through the heady cocktail of confusion, joy, rage and adoration that is new motherhood.

Jacqueline is a certified life coach and trainee psychotherapist for mums who feel like they've lost sight of themselves in motherhood. She helps them get very clear and confident about who they are now at this stage of their motherhood journey. Jacqueline has spent years challenging the unrealistic standards of motherhood that we are encouraged to aspire to and in doing this has redefined what's possible not just for her but for the mothers that she works with.

Reviews for Our Brave Hearts: Wise Words for Mothers

'Honest, tender, and deeply human, this book captures motherhood as it is actually lived. Small and unassuming, it holds powerful truths so many mothers live but rarely feel able to say out loud. Jacqueline writes with a gentle fierceness, holding the beauty and the difficulty of mothering side by side. Reading her words, I felt seen in the love, the exhaustion, the longing, and the deep complexity of becoming a mother. This is a book that understands the duality mothers carry and offers something profoundly rare: the experience of being seen.' Dr Emma Bagnall, Clinical Psychologist, Matrescence Practitioner, Holistic Sleep Coach, and Mom 'A tender and powerful companion for the mother who has lost - or nearly lost - herself, and is quietly finding her way back home. This beautiful, accessible book gives language to what has long been invisibilized, honors the sacred, and helps make sense of the tenderness, gratitude, and rage that grow within us as our babies grow up. It reminds us that we were never ""just"" mothers. We are foundational to all that is healthy, decent, and restorative in this wounded world.' Beth Berry (@bethberrycoaching), Author of Motherwhelmed, Coach and Mother of four
