Anyone else feeling rage?

What are you doing with it?

Please don’t turn it inwards.

You’re worth way more than that.

Rage is your boundary.

Your power.

Your stance.

Your fire.

Two of my daughters have birthdays this week. Big ones too! J turned eighteen on Wednesday and H is turning twenty on Sunday. What has this got to do with patriarchy?

I’ll tell you… as a single mum with in built and external expectations, feelings of ‘not enoughness’.

Check it out. Let me know what you think. Do you feel the same? I love interaction with my readers. Makes me feel I’m not pi***ng into a void. Thank you. Mwah.

I hesitated while I wrote this. Is there any point to these questions? Can anything really prepare you for motherhood?

You can discuss it all, but when you actually have the baby, the child, the young adult, nothing can really prepare you, because they are unique, you’re unique, your circumstances, your personality, your relationship with them is unique.

I wrote it anyway. I just felt called.

Hello, I’m Caroline Murray, founder of Rebel Mums 👋

I’m a mother of four, a qualified social worker, and a trained doula.

After twelve years as a full-time, earth-mother parent, and navigating emotional abuse, court battles, single parenting, and burnout, I founded Rebel Mums so no mother would have to do it alone the way I did.

Through mentoring, practical support including babysitting, and my books, I combine professional expertise with lived experience to guide women back to clarity, confidence, and freedom, so their children grow up with a mother who is fully present and alive.

***

Motherhood isn’t easy. Every stage has its moments.

Being a rebel mum isn’t about leathers, w**d or pole dancing at weekends.
(Although it might be.)

It isn’t about home births, breastfeeding or homeschooling.
(But it could be.)

***

The real motherhood rebellion is not doing it alone.

Whether you’re in tiny tots, tweens or teens, you deserve space to be you.

Date night. Dance night. Gym. Yoga. Sleep.

We make it happen.

𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗮 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀...

I love all the writing, posting videos and sharing what I know, but really I’m here to offer massive transformation to just a handful of women who get it.

(Later on, I’ll write the book and grow the community, but for now, it’s the handful of women.)

You might have seen my (previously secret!) dream to do stand up comedy this year…

I just came off a call with a well known (ish) British comedian, who was giving me some tips.

Great chat. Lots of tips, plenty from other comedians he’s trained and worked with. And then he dropped the bombshell - ‘𝗻𝗼-𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴’.

That really landed with me because in a world where everyone else is telling you to ‘follow these simple steps to make a billion dollars’, it pretty much sums up my work.

I can sit here and pontificate about this and that, and yes, I have tons of life experience, skills and expertise to share if you need it. But mostly you won’t.

My clients are like children - not in the sticky fingers, messing up the house kind of way. No. In the sense that each one is different, each one brings their own magic to the table, and each one has their own answers buried inside them.

You can only know exactly how to parent a child, or how to work with a client, by being fully present in the relationship, and the moment.

That’s the gift I have for you. I bring you back to yourself through deep presence. I hold the space for your own self to manifest. I just see you. As you are. And we laugh. We laugh because once you see it too, it’s so bloody obvious!

To me, it’s nothing special. But I’ve been told it’s a gift.

It’s simple. It’s powerful.

I have a framework that we can dip in and out of if that works for us, and it feels like fun.

What I will not ever do is give unsolicited advice, or tell you what to do.

People are activated by my presence. Some people are repelled, and that’s fine. I get it. Others - and you’re the ones I’m really talking to, feel the magic.

If you’re feeling the magic, and are ready to really find yourself again, after years submerged in the deep sea of motherhood, 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗼:

I like to think of myself as a Renaissance Mother - I don’t fit the box, I have eclectic tastes, and am rebirthing myself constantly as my children grow and change.

Which is all the time… And each child is completely different, so every time they move through a new phase it’s like starting all over again.

Sometimes being a Renaissance Mother is deeply challenging because I’m constantly making decisions and taking action that goes against the grain.

Like choosing to birth my babies at home, or leaving the family home after divorce, or starting a business at 55. I’ve felt pretty judged at times and have had to dig deep to stay true to my decisions.

But it’s worked. For me. Because being authentic is the only way I can do it.

I believe this is the single most important thing as a mother, especially as we grow older, and especially as we mother teens and beyond.

Teens smell bull from 5 paces - if you’re not being authentic, they will not respond.

If you are trying to be the mother you’re ‘supposed’ to be, they know. They push your buttons, and it all goes to crap.

For a while I tried to be the ‘authoritarian’ parent that the books, and the court system (we were in court for 5 years) say is so desirable.

But the children never listened. They knew it wasn’t authentic. So I had to find new ways to communicate with them.

Actually, it’s so much simpler than we think - just be authentic, communicate that, and allow them to communicate back in their authenticity.

As a Renaissance Mother you are constantly like the phoenix rising from the ashes, because the ups and downs of motherhood are like being burnt down over and over.

Every burning is a chance to redefine yourself and your relationships including with your teen. Every burning is an opportunity to claim your power and feel stronger, more at peace and more alive. Every burning is a rebirth.

Through all the fires, a Renaissance Mother develops:

Resilience - flexibility, and an ability to recover from whatever life throws at her

Resourcefulness - she uses what she has to create what she wants. She is ingenious, capable, and full of initiative, especially in dealing with difficult situations

Responsiveness - she responds rather than reacts both to her own needs and the needs of family, colleagues and friends

So she can be relaxed - super chill and free from tension and anxiety due to her confidence, self-belief and clear expectations - for herself and others, leaving her free to develop her own life alongside that of her teen(s).

How to be a Renaissance Mother (Teen Edition):

1- Free Your Time

2- Release Emotions

3- Learn Trust

4- Define your Needs, Desires & Expectations

5- Communicate Clearly

6- Live at Peace & Fully Alive

I’m opening up spaces over the next couple of weeks for one to one work. There will be a small number of spaces - probably 3-5, so message me now if you want one, and I’ll add you to my waiting list.
