Hey, I’m Kelly. And I am delighted that you’re here.
Whether you’re a adding a baby to the family, feeling stretched from the constant demands of {mom] life, or raising littles in a foreign country (like me) – you’re in the right place.
Here at Ritual Care, everything we do is founded in 4 Care Pillars:
1. CONSCIOUS NOT CLICHÉ | We emphasize conscious care rituals with long-term results, instead of the usual cliché quick fixes with short-term gain.
2. BETTER CARE = BETTER CONNECTION | When you feel good, everyone else feels better. Your care is positive correlation to how connected you are to others – your children, your partner, your colleagues, your clients, your barista.
3. CARE BUILDS YOUR CORE | The right care gives you relief and resilience, so you can practice unapologetic joy – and get through practically anything.
4. CHAOS IS THE PERFECT PLACE TO PRACTICE | Most people have a knee-jerk reaction to “get rid of” stress – but it can be your superpower. In fact, chaos is the best way to learn hot to be calm – making it (and motherhood) the perfect place to practice.
Off-Topic Topics
✵ I’m a “married single” mama to 2, bonus mom to 3, wife and expat, raising my babies in a bi-continental, bicultural blended family.
✵ My children are my happy place. I saw each of them in visions before they were conceived. I love my family and friends, but my babies are truly my two favorite people on the planet.
✵ I’ve always lived in and loved the city. But after 3 exhausting years of living between Washington DC and Paris, I made a spontaneous-but-intuitive choice to move to the countryside. Now, I live in my dream home where I’m known affectionately as “the American” in my tiny French village…and I couldn’t be happier.
✵ I’m a kid travel pro. In the last 5 years, I’ve taken over 50 flights alone with my little(s). In my coaching sessions (and free travel guide), I love helping other moms prepare for less stressful trips with their babies.
✵ I’ve been obsessed with birth and postpartum since I was 9 years old… but then became an business lawyer. After 6 years of corporate law, I traveled around the world for a year. After returning home, I sat at my parents’ kitchen table and started my first business: a private yoga practice with pre- and postpartum niche. It lasted for 8 years.
✵ I’ve been a neuro nerd since college, when I first studied the Polyvagal Theory under its founder, Stephen Porges. I’m also super woo-woo, and love energy, chakras, and moon cycles. Today, I teach with a multidisciplinary approach that blends intuitive healing, bodywork, and brain science.
✵ My favorite food is chocolate cake. But I also really love a big-a** salad.
✵ I am freakishly good at functioning while exhausted, holding the light during dark times, and choosing the perfectly-sized container for any amount of leftovers.
✵ I am the worst at going to bed on time, anything related to eyeshadow, and losing my phone approximately 15 times a day.
✵ I’ve watched the entire season of Homeland. Twice. In two languages. And it’s so complicated (and brilliant) that I could watch it all over again.
