My heart is overflowing with gratitude for the Mother’s Retreat with Danni and Joss, whose love and wisdom created a sacred, transformative space. The power of sitting in circle with incredible mothers sharing stories, laughter, and tears, wove a profound tapestry of connection, strength, and healing. There’s something ancient and unstoppable about women gathering in circle; it’s a space where every voice is honoured, every heart held, and every wound seen. This sacred space cracked open something profound within me - a remembering of my own resilience, a softening into vulnerability, and a beautiful reconnection to love and presence. The collective energy of these women - their raw, beautiful stories and open hearts mended parts of my soul that were quietly hurting.

This weekend, I felt the power of women as a force of nature: a nurturing, grounding energy that uplifts and transforms. Each mother in that circle brought her unique light, her struggles, joys, and unwavering strength creating a ripple effect of healing that touched us all. It was a reminder that mothers, in their vulnerability and power, hold the world together, weaving love through every challenge. I emerged lighter, stronger, and forever changed, carrying the warmth and healing energy of our circle in my heart. Thank you, Danni and Joss, for holding this sacred space, and to every mother who showed up with her heart open, you are a gift, and this experience was life changing.

I am still in awe, riding the incredible wave of the retreat, two weeks later. It was everything I wanted and hoped it would be, and so much more. My inner healing journey has been predominantly online the past few years, and was all building to that weekend, being in the physical presence of safety, love and acceptance of Joss, Danni and sixteen beautiful mamas to really surrender and access my grief and pain, to unlock younger parts of me who have been trapped in a steel vault, to open the possibility to feel and heal ancestral parts, and to let go of parts that no longer serve me.

I returned home centred, whole, and the closest I had ever felt to my authentic self. With a new level of love and willingness as a mother. A new hunger for connections that are deep, raw and authentic. I have been able to open up hard conversations with clarity and groundedness like never before. I have had the most beautiful serendipitous moments. I have been able to advocate for my children and move in with unconditional love and playfulness. I have also been human and messed up outrageously. I have stepped into my power, and I bloody love it! I cannot wait for the next retreat. Joss and Danni are the most beautiful souls, and held me with so much love and tenderness. I am so grateful they are part of my story.

Joss’s Aware Parenting Teenagers Course has truly been a game-changer for our family. We were facing so many stressful moments, and our relationship, especially with one of our teens, was at an all-time low.

The course provided us with incredibly insightful tools and strategies, and Joss’s ongoing support during the live rounds has been nothing short of amazing. She has such a compassionate and knowledgeable approach, and her guidance has made a world of difference. Thanks to Joss, we’ve not only turned things around, but our family dynamic has improved in ways we never thought possible. We are forever grateful and really looking forward to the next live round!

For the past 12 months, Joss has walked alongside me as I took a deep dive into Aware Parenting. She has an incredible gift for creating a safe, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space where I could show up exactly as I am. Joss taught me a new ‘language’ with Aware Parenting while also helping me develop deep compassion for myself and my inner child. Through her unwavering support, Joss has shown me what it truly feels like to be unconditionally loved—a gift I can now pass on to my children. I will always hold a special place in my heart for Joss, and I am deeply grateful for her guidance and care.

Joss I slept almost 11 hours last night! Thank you for your loving attention and kindness. It was very healing and reaches right down to the root of my difficulties.

I noticed my girl was so snuggly this am for much longer than usual - an energetic shift happened within myself I’m guessing and helped to free her a little bit more.

I met her with a loving warmth and when she did eventually wave some flags I put up a loving limit which eventually resulted in tears in my lap. A happy girl emerged from that release! Yay!

My time spent receiving Aware Parenting Support from Joss has been so healing and helpful. I've worked with Joss for a lengthy period of time now, and after each session I feel better equipped to face the challenges of parenting. I also feel so celebrated when I share the joys of parenting with Joss. Joss is like the aunty we all wish we had. She is a beautiful listener, and I'm often struck by how non-judgemental and affirming Joss is of my own parenting capacities. I'm just so grateful for you, Joss.

I adore your podcast and have learned so much through my many hours of listening ~ thank you!

Hello Joss. I just want to say thank you again because, reading the books, it all sounds great and I love it and I agree. But then putting into practice, it helps so much to have you break it down and apply it to our situation - it sounds so simple! I feel like I know the concepts but when it comes to our life, I guess I am so embroiled in it, I don’t see where it fits. So thank you so much. It’s made a really big difference to my family. Thank you.

Thank you Joss. Thank you for giving me the listening I never received. Thank you for creating a safe space where I could say anything without fear of judgement or pressure. Thank you for adding your voice to my inner voice, who has become enormously more empathic and loving. Thank you for trusting that I would come up with the answers in due time.

I just feel drawn to send this email to you. Thank you so much for supporting me this year and being a compassionate ear to listen to so much that happened. It has been such a big year for my family and I so appreciate having your support during some of those hard times.

I also really love your podcast and I just want to put out there that you are doing such important work in the world and it’s so inspiring.

I hope to work with you again in the future.

Lots of love always

I love my sessions with Joss so much. It’s a special time for me each fortnight where I can leave my parenting behind for an hour and turn up exactly how I am and how I’m feeling. I see Joss like my kind humble auntie who loves me no matter what I share, offers me such deep compassion and empathy, has beautiful ways to drop me deeper into my experience and has great aware parenting ideas when I need them. I feel safe, unconditionally loved and deeply listened to. I feel so grateful to have found Joss’s support during early motherhood.
