Mama
A comprehensive course to walk you through the biggest transition of your life
Planning | Trying | Pregnancy
Planning | Trying | Pregnancy
Am I doing this right??
For women who want to approach motherhood intentionally but don't know where to start.
Whether you've been dreaming about having a baby all your life, or just in the last few months, you've decided you're ready to take a step forward.
But now that this is really happening — whether you're planning, trying, or already pregnant—your mind is overflowing with questions.
"Will becoming a mother erase everything else I am and have worked to become?"
"What if I make the wrong choices and it affects my baby forever?"
"How do I prepare for this massive life change?"
You lay awake at night wondering...
"Am I actually capable of being the mom I've always wanted to be?"
Becoming a mother is the biggest transition most women will ever go through (EVER!). And not only is this life-changing for us...
We're suddenly in charge of a whole other person's life.
We're responsible for quite literally keeping our baby alive, helping them grow, learn, and become good humans. We're responsible for the kind of childhood they have AND the future they're set up for.
It's the most consuming, most high-stakes job any of us will ever take on — so you'd think there'd be lots of preparation. Like, a Driver's Ed course but for motherhood. Right??
WRONG.
Most of us are given little more than...
Having a baby is a REALLY big deal.
"Women have been doing this forever! You'll figure it out."
it makes sense that we're worried...
On one hand, women are expected to naturally know how to mother — as if the moment you decide you want to have a baby, ancient maternal wisdom just automatically activates.
On the other hand, we're flooded with conflicting "expert" advice on everything from timing to pregnancy to birth to how to care for a baby — making us doubt our own judgment.
We're trying so hard to get this right according to everyone around us, we never learn how to listen to ourselves —
Modern motherhood feels like driving without Driver's Ed, but with a whole car full of backseat drivers.
and at the very same time...We're given WAY too much advice.
and no matter WHAT we do, we're always somehow falling short or doing it wrong.
But...
What if you could...
Walk into motherhood with the confidence of someone who's done this before
Be fully present for those fleeting newborn moments instead of frantically Googling basic information at 3 AM
Watch your relationship strengthen through this transition rather than fracture
Make decisions based on what's right for YOUR unique family, not from a place of fear, people-pleasing, or sleep deprivation
Create a family culture that reflects your deepest values, not just what you inherited or what society dictates

LET'S BREAK it DOWN

The true cost
What you risk by not preparing for motherhood:
❌ "Blacking out" the beginning of your child's life because you're so stressed and overwhelmed
❌ Joining the 67% of couples who report a dramatic decline in relationship satisfaction after their first child
❌ Facing crushing financial surprises because you didn't have accurate information about what raising children really costs
❌ Making costly career missteps because you didn't know how to prepare your work life
❌ Becoming part of the 62% of women that feel they've lost part of their identity since becoming a mother
❌ Unable to be the kind of mom (and family!) you've always dreamed of being
Here's the painful truth:
Without intentional preparation...
You risk making reactionary decisions based on whatever blog post you read at 3 AM, or whatever your mother-in-law insists worked for her children, or whatever your sleep-deprived brain can grasp in the moment.
Those reactive decisions rarely align with your deeper values and often lead to regrets that can take years to unravel.
You cannot just wing it!
You've worked too hard building your life, your career, and your relationship to watch it all strain under the weight of unprepared parenthood.
but first, we'd love to introduce ourselves!

The truth is, we'd both rather sit down with each of you over coffee and walk through all of this in person.
However, we know that we only have space in our calendars for a few one-on-ones per week, and the time it would take to walk you through all of this material in person would be 10X the cost. That's why we knew we had to create this course!

Are we a good fit?
This is perfect for you if:
You want to approach motherhood with intention rather than simply reacting to whatever comes
You prefer to figure everything out as you go without advance planning
You're feeling overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice and need a clear roadmap
You're looking for someone to tell you exactly what kind of mother to be
You value your relationship and want to strengthen it through this transition instead of letting it fracture
This might not be for you if:
You're not willing to invest time in preparing your heart, mind, and relationships
you're concerned about maintaining your identity while embracing motherhood
You want to make career decisions proactively rather than reactively
You're committed to doing the inner work to become the mother you want to be
You're only looking for help with baby gear and nursery planning
and use this precious pre-baby window to develop your foundation thoughtfully and intentionally.
You're standing at a critical decision point. One path leads to entering motherhood overwhelmed and reactive, making important decisions while sleep-deprived and in a hormonal free-fall.
The other path—the one we're offering—leads to approaching motherhood with clarity, confidence, and intention because you've done the foundation work BEFORE baby arrives.
Yes, you could piece together information from contradictory sources, trying to create your maternal approach while also learning to care for a newborn.
Or... you could join Becoming Mama now ...

FAQ
Any questions?
What is an online course? How does this work?
+
Great question! Online courses are still a bit of an unfamiliar thing. So let’s break down what it actually looks like to join us.
When you sign up for the course, you’ll create a username and password. That information allows you to log in to a private website where you can see the videos, workbook pages, and additional resources that make up the content of the course.
We do recommend going through Part 1 in order as soon as you sign up for the course. Part 1 is where you'll lay the foundation for your motherhood journey and that's a great thing to do as soon as possible, and it's applicable no matter what stage of the journey you're in.
From there, it's a choose your own adventure! Watch the videos you need when you need them. You can mix, match, skip over some, watch others several times — whatever is most helpful to you.
Beneath the videos, we'll include links, worksheets, and other resources we love to give you the most comprehensive answers to your questions possible!
But, with this course specifically, there is no time-sensitive element. You don't need to finish the videos in any order or in any certain amount of time.
You'll have access to the content indefinitely — so no need to rush!
When does the program start?
+
Great question! All of the materials will be live first thing on Friday, May 30th! That's when you can officially dive in!
I'm not pregnant yet—is it too early for me to take the course?
+
Not at all! Starting before pregnancy gives you time to prepare thoughtfully without the pressure of a countdown.
Plus, you get to keep the material indefinitely, which means you'll have access to everything whenever you need it!
I'm already pregnant—is it too late?
+
Not at all. The course will meet you exactly where you are, help you prepare in ways you haven't yet, help you lay a strong foundation for the mother you want to be, and help you mentally, physically, and emotionally prepare for both birth and the first several months after bringing your baby home!
That being said — there is a portion of the course that won't be as helpful to you (as it focuses on the time before pregnancy!). So, we're giving all pregnant participants 15% off! Just send us an email and we'll give you the discount code! Hello@StephanieMayWilson.com
I don't have a ton of time — how long will the course take?
+
The course is designed to be completed at your own pace. (Think of it more like a comprehensive resource library than a timed class.) So even if you're super busy, you can still join us for the course.
Remember: a few hours of preparation now will save you countless hours of stress later.
How is this different from other pregnancy courses?
+
Becoming Mama is an A-Z, top-to-bottom course that will help you be as prepared as possible for motherhood. After taking this course, you're not going to need 12 additional books and courses. This course will take you all the way through the transition from "I think I want to have a baby, but I don't know when the right time is" — all the way through your drive to the hospital to give birth.
Most courses focus only on the medical parts of pregnancy or baby gear lists. Becoming Mama addresses the identity transformation and helps you develop your own maternal voice, while still covering practical elements.
We'll also help you prepare the other parts of your life — your marriage, your career, your mental health and more — to withstand and even grow stronger through this massive life transition.
When will you be teaching this course again?
+
We don't yet know when we'll be opening up registration for the course again.
So, if you think you might need access to this information sometime in the next 12-15 months, make sure to sign up during this registration window! (Enrollment closes Friday, May 30th at 11:59pm PST.)
Is the course worth the cost?
+
Think about what you'll spend on baby gear in the first year—easily thousands of dollars. This program is an investment in something far more valuable: your confidence as a mother and your ability to be present during this transformative time.
This will be the best money you spend in your preparation for parenthood — and it will save you a ton of both money AND time, stress, arguments, and heartache in the long run.
What if I don't like the program? Can I have a refund?
+
More than anything, we want this course to be helpful to you. And so if you make it through the first module and the course isn't really serving you, please reach out to us and we'll give you a complete refund.
But we do have three things we'll ask you to do before we give you a refund:
- I ask that you complete Part 1 of the course and submit all of your completed worksheets to us. We want you to really put your heart into the course, really give it a solid chance before you decide it didn’t work.
- We ask that you include a note to us explaining why the course wasn’t beneficial to you. We want to continue to make this course better, and so if it didn’t work, it’s important that we can understand why.
- We ask that you submit your refund request within 14 days of when you signed up for the course. We won't be able to issue refunds after those 14 days are up.
Can I share my login information with a friend and have her go through it too?
+
Each login is meant to be for one person only. We kindly and respectfully ask that you don’t share the content of this course — the videos, the worksheets, the information — with anyone who hasn’t themselves purchased the course.
Real talk for a second? Our team poured so much time and energy into this course, and we love doing it! This is really so close to our hearts, so much of what we believe we’re meant to do in the world. And when copies are made, or login information is passed around (which is actually stealing) it really hurts our ability to continue.
If we find out that more than one person is using an account, we will revoke your access to the course. (We really don't want to have to do that!) So we thank you so much in advance for your consideration and respect!
Is this course a good substitute for counseling?
+
This course is designed to be an encouraging resource and a step in a healthy, positive direction, but it is not a replacement for professional in-person mentorship, counseling, or therapy.
Stephanie is not a licensed therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist, or counselor, and while Kelsey IS, in this format, she is not able to be YOUR therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist, or counselor.
If you feel you are in need of help please reach out to a professional or call a help hotline in your area to help you through your time of need. If it feels urgent call your local law enforcement for immediate assistance.
Where can I find your Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy?
+
Great question! Before you sign up for the course, please take a minute to review both our Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy. Just click those links to check them out!
I have a question that I don't think you've answered yet.
+
We're happy to answer any questions you can think of! Just send us an email! Hello@StephanieMayWilson.com.
A year from now you'll be SO glad you started today!
SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
You're not alone!
Your motherhood story doesn't begin in the delivery room—it's unfolding right now in how you prepare.
A little intentionality now sets you up for a motherhood journey that's life-giving for everyone—including your little one. Your legacy as a parent starts today—but you do NOT have to do this alone!
In your corner,
Steph & Kelsey
