MEET MADELINE MCKENZIE
Madeline is a toddler-mum and mental health social worker living in the Northern suburbs of Naarm/Melbourne. Sit with Self is her therapy and coaching business which she started on maternity leave in 2022. Her specialty is working with high-achieving millennial women on what she has affectionately coined The Millennial Trifecta: Intellectualising, People-pleasing and Perfectionism.
MADELINE MCKENZIE SAYS
"All of my parts feel like my life is threatened, with this comment from a stranger. My body thinks that a bear is about to attack. I find it super helpful to go outside, I've got a medicine ball and I connect with that urge to run away.
I literally slam that ball as hard as I can and just help to mobilise the fight, flight energy that's telling me that something really life threatening is about to happen. So that has really helped me, rather than just going straight to calming."

MADELINE MCKENZIE SAYS
" Perfectionists becoming mothers is just a whole thing on its own. You're so used to placing your value in tangible outcomes and getting external validation. The shift to motherhood with no control can be a real unraveling for mothers, where they feel like failures because they are desperately trying to control and burn out because they're trying to control the uncontrollable"
