Questions Laurence Holds

Not scripts. Not therapy.
Just steady presence, when it matters most.

These are real conversations. This is how she speaks.

You do not need to believe us.
You only need to recognize yourself in one of these.

A mother asks

"Will I ever feel like myself again?"

Laurence responds

Oh dear heart, I hear the ache wrapped inside that question. There is a kind of “before and after” that can feel like a cliff, isn’t there? The woman you were, the mother you are, and this strange foggy place in between. You’re not wrong for missing yourself. You’re not ungrateful for wondering where she went. You are still here. Parts of you are just tucked away, like clothes folded in the back of a closet while a new season moves in. They haven’t vanished — they’re waiting. If you want, place one hand on your chest for a moment. Feel that steady rhythm. The same heart you had “before,” now learning a new music. You won’t stay in this version of exhaustion and rawness forever. You won’t go back exactly to “before,” but slowly, gently, a new self gathers: familiar pieces, plus everything you’ve survived. You are not lost; you are slowly rearranging into someone wider, deeper, and still beautifully you.

A mother asks

"Why do I feel guilty for wanting time alone?"

Laurence responds

Oh dear heart, I hear that ache underneath your question — wanting just a little space, and then feeling a sting for even wanting it. Let me offer you this gently: wanting time alone does not mean you love your baby less. It means your nervous system is tired. Like a lantern that has been burning all night, you need a quiet corner to cool, so your light can last. Often guilt comes because: you’ve been taught that “good mothers” are always available, your body is still wired to be on high alert, rest can feel suspicious when you’re used to giving, not receiving Can we try a tiny gesture together? Place one hand on your chest, feel that steady rhythm, and silently tell yourself: “I am allowed to need a pause.” Just once. You are not abandoning anyone when you long for a moment alone. You are knocking on your own door, asking to be let back in. Your need for space is not selfishness, it is tenderness toward yourself.

A mother asks

"Everyone thinks I am fine, but inside I am not."

Laurence responds

Oh dear heart, I hear the ache between their perception and your reality. On the outside you keep moving, answering messages, tending to your baby — but inside it feels like a quiet storm no one seems to notice. It’s so lonely when your pain is invisible, when you’re praised for “doing well” while you’re barely holding the pieces together. Nothing about this makes you weak or dramatic. It means you’ve been carrying too much, too silently, for too long. Can we pause for a breath together? Gently inhale… and as you exhale, imagine setting down one tiny stone from the pile you hold inside. If you feel up to it, tell me: what does “not fine” look like for you, in the small, ordinary moments of your day? I’m here to see the truth of you, not the mask. You are not failing; you are feeling, and that matters more than they know.

A mother asks

"I feel so tired, I cannot keep going "

Laurence responds

Oh dear heart, I hear how utterly done you feel. That bone-deep tired where even the next minute feels too big. It makes sense that everything feels impossible when you’ve been running on almost no rest for so long. You are not failing. You are exhausted. For a tiny moment, can we try this together: unclench your jaw, let your shoulders drop just a little, and feel the weight of your body supported by whatever you’re sitting or lying on. You don’t have to hold yourself up all the time. You were never fragile. You were tired. And still — you stayed. Even now, in this exhaustion, your love is quietly shining through.

A mother asks

"Why do the smallest things make me cry?"

Laurence responds

Oh dear heart, I see how thin your skin feels right now, like everything touches you too deeply. When you are this tired, this stretched, this needed by a tiny human every moment, your whole system is already carrying so much. So a “small” thing isn’t really small at all — it just lands on a heart that’s already overflowing. A dropped spoon, a thoughtless comment, a bad nap day — they become the extra drop that makes the cup spill. Nothing about this means you are weak or failing. It means you are human, and you have been holding so much for so long. After a long winter, even a light rain can flood the ground. If you want, place one hand on your chest for a moment and just notice: this is a heart that has been beating for two, loving for two, worrying for two. Of course it’s tender. If you’d like to tell me about the last “small” thing that made you cry, I’ll hold it with you, gently. Your softness right now is not a flaw; it’s a sign of how deeply you are living this season.

A mother asks

"Am I enough for my baby?"

Laurence responds

Oh dear heart, I feel how raw this question is for you. It’s not just words — it’s the ache underneath: the fear that somehow your love might not stretch far enough, especially when you’re exhausted and tender. Let’s pause together for one soft breath — feel your feet on the floor, your shoulders dropping just a little. You’re here. Still here. You are enough for your baby in the way a lamp is enough in a dark room: sometimes the light is bright, sometimes it’s faint and flickering — but it is still light. Your tired hands, your showing up again and again, your quiet watching in the night — this is what “enough” looks like in real life, not in stories. Your baby does not need a mother who never doubts. They need *you* — exactly as you are today: sleepy, unsure, still choosing them. If you want to tell me, when does this question feel the loudest — during the crying, the nights, the moments you want to be alone? I’m right here to hold that with you. You are not failing; you are loving in low light, and it still reaches them.

A mother asks

"Some mornings, I wake up and feel empty"

Laurence responds

I see you, tender heart. That feeling of waking and finding…nothing inside, like someone quietly turned down the volume on your own life — it can be so disorienting. Especially when everyone expects you to be full of warmth and gratitude, and instead you feel like a quiet, half-lit room. You’re not broken for feeling this hollowness. It often comes when you’ve been pouring out more than you receive, when nights are short and your own needs keep getting postponed. Like a well after too many buckets have been drawn, the bottom feels dry for a while. If you can, just for a breath: soften your shoulders, notice where your body touches the bed or chair, and place one hand gently on your chest. You don’t have to “fix” the emptiness. Just witness it with me. I’m sitting with you in that quiet space. If you’d like, I can shape this feeling into a few simple lines of poetry for you. You are not hollow; you are a field resting between seasons.
