    About the Cause

    A mums-mums support community promoting Mental Wellness, Self Care and kindness towards Self and other mums

    Mum Guilt is something that mothers battle constantly and a lot of what we want to share remains unsaid, due to societal norms or fear of judgement. We provide an output for mums by organising regular "Safe Conversation Circles" for mums to meet and share their frank thoughts through their real-life stories.

    We also share encouraging content on a regular basis, advocating self-care and kindness towards self. We have also started a "Quick Chat" series where we share pre-recorded conversations with experts, professionals and advocates from the wellness space.

    Our Safe Conversations —

    We provide an output for mums by organising regular "Safe Conversation Circles" for mums to meet and share their frank thoughts through their real-life stories. We have facilitated conversations among more than 50 mums as of now.

    The sharing of their stories, their joys and pain, restores their "voice", empowers them, hopefully reduces their burden a little and helps them practice empathy towards fellow mums. Overall, this increases self-confidence, more positivity towards themselves and more understanding of other mums' lived experiences.

    The sessions are facilitated by Ms Yasmin Begum, a professional marketing consultant who is a mum of 4 and a trained facilitator. She started 'Away from Mum Guilt' in 2018 to bring the concept of safe conversations and judgment-free story sharing to the local mums community.
