Join resident sleep expert Amanda Jewson as she discusses genuine self-care practises with self-care educator Kelly Newsome Georges!

Kelly is a mama, bonus mom, self-care educator and coach, obsessed with empowering mothers. She believes that busy, chaotic motherhood is the “perfect time to practice” self-care, and she teaches moms care rituals that help them feel ready for anything that life (or their toddler) throws at them. Kelly is the founder of ritualcare.com, an online self-care studio with programs and tools that moms can access from anywhere, anytime. Frustrated by popular, quick-fix self-care paradigms, Kelly help moms create both daily care rituals and a lifelong mindset of joy, confidence, and worth, using a blend of intuitive healing, bodywork, maternal well-being, and brain science. Her clients learn how to calm their nervous systems, manage stress, and create more magic in the middle of crazy {mom} life. She holds B.S. in Psychology focused on mother-child attachment, neurophysiological responses to stress, and the Polyvagal Theory by Stephen Porges (whom she studied under), as well as a certification in Positive Psychology from the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health. Previously, she was a private yoga teacher and a business attorney. Her favourite role, though, is at home: she is a “married single mama” to two spectacular tiny humans, and stepmom to three brilliant bonus kids, with her French husband. She currently lives in Provence and Washington, DC, where she can be found hanging out with her babies by day, buried in a laptop at night, and drinking all the coffee.
