Self-Care Basics for Modern Mums cuts through the noise of traditional wellness advice that feels laughably disconnected from the actual lives of modern mothers. This course was created by Pauline Brookes & Clara Emanuel, founders of Workwelle, who understand the reality of staring at another wellness article suggesting bubble baths while a toddler bangs on the bathroom door and work demands pile up.
At Workwelle, our mission is to redefine wellness and success for modern mothers - empowering them to build thriving careers, nurture their wellbeing, and embrace motherhood without sacrificing themselves in the process. With backgrounds in leadership, wellness, and creative entrepreneurship, Pauline & Clara created Workwelle as the kind of support we wished we had: thoughtful, a bit disruptive, and actually doable. Our approach is rooted in evidence, elevated by intention, and built on the belief that women navigating motherhood deserve more than just ‘survival mode.’
This audio course is designed to be interwoven throughout your day. Listen while commuting, folding laundry, or during those precious stolen moments between responsibilities—no need to carve out extra time from an already maxed-out schedule.
We see wellbeing as part of a wider personal development methodology that cultivates a positive mindset, healthy body, and joyful spirit. Our framework is built around six core self-care pillars that address what working mothers actually need:
Emotional Resilience: Tools for navigating the wild swings between professional demands and emotional labour at home without completely depleting yourself.
Connection: Practical ways to nurture relationships (including with yourself) when your calendar has no white space and "catching up" feels like another obligation.
Money Mindset: Develop ways to shift your limiting beliefs to empowering ones, understand the value you provide at a time when your priorities and identity may have realigned, and make informed, confident financial decisions.
Learning & Development: Feed your intellect and professional growth even when your brain feels fogged by sleep deprivation and the mental load. Make room in your life for continuous improvement in new ways.
Creativity & Play: Rediscover what lights you up beyond your roles as "mother" and "professional" without adding pressure to produce or perform.
Nourishment: Move beyond restrictive wellness culture and surface self-care tactics toward genuinely creating rituals to care for your body, mind, and spirit during this demanding season. Each module delivers concise audio guidance paired with several "practical magic" exercises that can be completed without rearranging your entire life. These micro-rituals create surprising shifts in moments, not hours. The course includes two powerful active meditations to help reset your mindset in minutes:
- The Morning Ritual: Align & Activate: Start your day with focus, clarity, and intention
- The Evening Ritual: Release & Restore: End your day feeling grounded, grateful, and at peace Instead of aspirational wellness content that makes you feel worse about what you're not doing, in this course we invite you to reclaim small moments of aliveness, wholeness, and clarity while navigating the beautiful mess of modern motherhood.
Who This Course Is For
- Women who feel disconnected from themselves amid constant caregiving
- Mothers juggling professional ambitions, career shifts, and family responsibilities
- Impact-driven women, professionals, entrepreneurs, and creatives seeking to maintain their identity beyond motherhood
- Anyone tired of impossible self-care advice that doesn't fit real life
Pauline and Clara lovingly designed this course as a practical alternative to wellness approaches that require more time, money, and energy than most mothers have available. Their framework recognises that a mother's worth hasn't diminished because she now juggles multiple identities.
Self-care isn't luxury. It's simply the foundation that makes everything else possible. Self-Care Basics for Modern Mums offers a journey back to yourself, one small, possible moment at a time. This course is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to replace professional medical, mental health, or financial advice.

Your Career Coach
creative production; and Pauline in luxury events and experience design - building businesses, curating world-class experiences, and redefining success on their own terms.
But when motherhood entered the picture, they found themselves questioning the narratives they had been handed: Why did success seem to come at the expense of well-being? Why were women expected
to accept a narrative of sacrifice and struggle at this pivotal moment in their lives? And most importantly - did it really have to be this way?
So, they built what they wished had existed. Workwelle is more than a platform - it’s a movement. Through
transformative coaching, mindset work, and corporate programmes, Clara and Pauline help women break free from limiting beliefs and design lives where their work, wellness, and worth are all priorities.
If you’ve ever felt the tension between who you are and who you’re becoming - if you’re ready to take up space, rewrite the rules, and step into your full power - this space is for you. And together, we’ll make the
journey more joyful, more expansive, and a lot more fun
