Speaking on Mom Burnout, Slow Motherhood, and Motherhood Culture

Émilie Avon-Green speaks on mom burnout, slow motherhood, emotional labour, women’s wellbeing, and the cultural pressures shaping modern motherhood.

Émilie is available for podcasts, panels, workshops, trainings, and speaking engagements.

Signature Topics

Mom Burnout Beyond Self-Care

A deeper look at mom burnout as more than stress, poor boundaries, or a lack of self-care. This talk explores the emotional, relational, and cultural pressures that lead mothers to feel overwhelmed, resentful, exhausted, and disconnected from themselves.

Slow Motherhood: A More Sustainable Way to Live, Work, and Mother

An exploration of slow motherhood as a response to hustle culture, over-functioning, and the pressure to do it all. This talk invites mothers to reconnect with their values, presence, self-trust, and a more sustainable rhythm of life.

The Emotional Load of Modern Motherhood

A conversation about invisible labour, emotional labour, mental load, and the unseen responsibilities mothers often carry. This topic is especially relevant for organizations, parent groups, women’s events, and wellness spaces.

Motherhood Culture and the Myth of the Good Mother

A deeper reflection on the expectations women inherit about what it means to be a “good mother,” and how those ideals can contribute to guilt, perfectionism, burnout, resentment, and self-abandonment.

Supporting Mothers Experiencing Burnout

A professional training or workshop for therapists, mental health professionals, and organizations that want a deeper understanding of mom burnout and the emotional realities of modern motherhood.
