12 Days of Support. Unwrapping the NAO Village

We begin our 12 Days of Support with Whole Alchemy, founded by Katie Gregory, a qualified naturopath and nutritionist based in Avalon on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.

Katie is a proud member of the Australian Natural Therapists Association and a mother of two, with a special focus on women’s fertility, pregnancy, postpartum and lactation, alongside children’s wellbeing, hormone balance, thyroid health, gut health and emotional wellbeing.

As the year folds into its softest edges, Katie invites you to slow down, breathe and nourish yourself. As an end of year gift, she’s opening 12 consultation spots at 20 % off — available for either an initial or follow-up session. These can also be booked now for next year if time is limited. 

Think of this as a moment to pause, to be witnessed, and to refill your inner reserves with care, clarity and nourishment. Whether you’re craving grounding, deeper rest or renewed balance, Katie offers a space to gently meet what your body is asking for.

Offer: 12 spots at 20 % off one service (initial or follow-up consultation)

For Day 2 of our 12 Days of Support, we’re deeply honoured to share Olive & Kin, a registered Australian charity founded by Hannah after the loss of her daughter, Olive.

Operating Australia-wide, Olive & Kin creates free, handmade ceramic urns for families experiencing pregnancy and infant loss, offering a beautiful, tangible way to honour their babies. The organisation relies on community donations and the sale of Hannah’s hand-painted Loss Affirmation Cards to continue this meaningful work.

Hannah’s Pregnancy After Loss, NICU Milestone, and Grief Affirmation decks were painted while she was on bed rest during her own pregnancy after loss. Each deck was created to gently hold families walking through NICU, grief and healing,  a way to acknowledge their experience with real care, compassion and understanding.

Every deck purchased gives back: 100 % of proceeds fund the making of handcrafted urns, ensuring they can be provided free of charge to families navigating pregnancy and infant loss.

A gift that holds, honours and helps, in all the ways that matter.

Offer: Purchase any Affirmation or Milestone Deck

We’re lifting our voices for Day 3 of 12 Days of Support with Sing High Sing Low, founded by Fiona Maria,  a singing facilitator and heart-centred community builder who creates gentle, joyful singing spaces for women and mothers.

Based in Summer Hill with new circles opening in Paddington (Feb 2026), Sing High Sing Low offers calm, nurturing environments where women of every life stage can simply breathe, sing, and reconnect. No performance. No pressure. Just soothing melodies that regulate the nervous system and invite you home to yourself.

Unlike typical “mums & bubs” classes that focus on the baby, these circles are designed to nourish the mother. When you feel grounded and resourced, everyone around you benefits. You’ll leave feeling lighter, connected and uplifted,  because when mothers thrive, the whole family thrives.

Why Singing Matters

Singing to your baby builds secure attachment, lowers stress and supports emotional wellbeing  for both of you. It’s an ancient practice of care that helps rebuild the community connection so often missing in modern motherhood.

Fiona Maria, trained with Singing Mamas UK and certified in Intergenerational Practice (Griffith University), brings over 20 years’ experience in voice work, performance and community facilitation. Her sessions welcome every voice … shy singers, “non-singers,” and karaoke divas alike.

Exclusive Offer for NAO Mamas

✨ 50 % off single tickets to any Singing Circle throughout December & January.

Postpartum Is Forever Podcast | Real Motherhood Stories & Expert Care

Created by Keturah Stoltenberg (massage therapist, birth & postpartum doula, Matrescence Educator), the Postpartum Is Forever Podcast is a heart-led space for women in every season of motherhood. Expect real stories, reflections and truths alongside conversations with women’s health and motherhood experts, offering practical tools, validation and guidance through the profound identity shift of matrescence.

A message from Keturah to you x 

“My name is Keturah Stoltenberg, mother of two adult boys, and I am super excited to bring this heart-led podcast to you

I have dedicated most of my working life to facilitating the wellbeing of mother in the perinatal space, as a massage therapist, birth & postpartum doula and Matrescence Educator. I truly believe that Postpartum is Forever and that motherhood is the most enriching personal development program a woman will embark on. One of the things that I have consistently observed over the past 20 years is that mothers can be both powerful, yet vulnerable. I noticed that as they entered motherhood, they were deeply called firstly, to connect with other mothers, and secondly, to share their stories. What I am referring to is not just the superficial conversations, or mother’s group meetings, but the deeper conversations about how we have changed and how we show up in the world. To feel seen, heard and supported in sharing the things that bring joy, and the things that are challenging, the taboo subjects, all told without any judgement. My intention is creating this podcast is to give mothers the opportunity to share their individual experiences, reflections and wins, and for the listener to find resonance, validation and guidance in another mother’s journey. In addition, I will share conversations with experts and change-makers in the women’s health and motherhood space to inform, educate, and raise awareness, as well as tools and strategies to identify areas of our mothering lives that can be enhanced and elevated. It is my hope that listening to this podcast will bring you enrichment and nurturance, and will continue to encourage the kindness and grace that you so deeply deserve.”

Festive Offer: 20% off The Peaceful Postpartum eBook,  code XQXK98Z

The Peaceful Postpartum e-book draws on over 20 years of work in the postpartum space as a doula, matrescence educator, massage therapist, and baby massage instructor. I help you plan for a postpartum period full of rest, nourishing food, and the support of a village with this 52-page interactive guide.
