"I vividly remember feeling resentment in those early postpartum days- the exhaustion, the overwhelming sense of responsibility, and the quiet frustration that no one seemed to understand the load I was carrying. These feelings were unsettling, and I struggled to admit them even to myself."

Why is it Important to Understand Postpartum Resentment?
In early 2023, we published a blog post on postpartum resentment (read here) and it quickly became our most-read article. Many moms come to us overwhelmed, scared, or ashamed of the resentment they feel- a feeling that often leads them to question who they are as mothers. They find themselves reacting with anger or frustration, leaving them feeling like they’ve lost touch with their true selves.
Resentment is a common and normal feeling experienced by many new moms. The journey into parenthood is life-changing, and the demands can feel exhausting and isolating. Between sleep deprivation, endless tasks, and changing roles, many moms begin to feel unseen.
From Resentment to Resilience will help you increase resilience and find your way back to yourself in parenthood.
This program is for the mom who...
- Is secretly angry, depleted, or emotionally checked out
- Feels disconnected from herself and everyone around her
- Can’t keep carrying the weight of everyone’s needs
- Wants to stop snapping, numbing, or withdrawing
- Craves clarity and space to feel like herself again
Inside the program, you'll...
- Understand how resentment builds from mental load, unmet needs, and identity loss
- Learn how emotion suppression shows up
- Unpack the invisible load you're carrying
- Re-imagine your daily life with boundaries
- Reconnect with yourself through understanding your identity
- Learn to reconnect with joy, creative energy, and your inner voice
- Learn to express resentment and needs without shame
- Begin to rebalance emotional and logistical labor at home
“I feel like I’m doing everything and no one even notices”
Here’s the truth: Resentment doesn’t show up overnight. It builds slowly, through the feeling that you are the glue holding everything together.
From Resentment to Resilience is designed to help you find your way back.

Common Questions
What's included in the bonuses?
We love the bonuses! We've included a Check-In Card Deck, a workbook for The Partner That Wants to Help But Doesn't Know How, and The Self-Compassion Starter Kit.
Is the workbook a physical book?
We created this as a digital product to be accessible on your phone, tablet, or laptop. Resentment can show up when we least expect it and having quick access to this resource is another tool you can use in that moment so we wanted it to always be available to you. We recommend having a notebook as well for additional journal pages when you have the space to sit down and write.
I’m not located in North America. Can I still access the program?
Yes! The journal prompts, tips, and education that we provide can help any parent work through postpartum resentment!
What is your refund policy?
We don't offer refunds for digital products. Once you have access to the program you have instant access to all of the resources on this topic.
How long does the program take?
There are over 100 pages of content and we recommend taking your time or revisiting sections for more support. You can work through at your own pace (or when you get 5 minutes!)
Hi, I'm Heather
I’m a mom of three and a Registered Social Worker who understands how complex the transition into motherhood can be. In my own early postpartum days, I remember feeling resentment—the exhaustion, overwhelming responsibility and quiet frustration that nobody seemed to understand the load I was carrying.
At Bloom Psychotherapy, I now support parents navigating the resentment, guilt, and shame that often surface and are rarely talked about.
