As part of the MOTHERTELLING mission to give back to a charitable organization in the community, I chose The Hummingbird Centre for Hope in 2025. This organization has been near and dear to my heart since I first learned of it shortly after becoming a mother. Hummingbird Centre for Hope (HCH) was established in 2012 to meet the unique and evolving needs of individuals who lose their spouse or partner at a young age, and encounter themselves shouldering the responsibility of raising a child or children as a widowed parent. Two of our storytellers in 2025 have been supported by The Hummingbird Centre so it felt fitting and exciting to bring this cause to the MOTHERTELLING event! I look forward to sharing our 2026 Charity soon!
Martha, Mothertelling Attendee
“Mothertelling is a powerful and supportive stage for the voices of the nurturers of this world to be heard. The personal stories mothers share also allows for healing and reflection for those who get to listen. It is such a gift to share the struggles and triumphs of the most difficult but valuable role a woman may experience. Having your own voice and story heard and shared creates a space for connection, hope, support and love. This is an art and a gift wrapped in one. Bring a tissue, or the box!!!”

✔️ You crave a space where the realities of motherhood—both beautiful and brutal—are honoured and shared.
✔️ You want to hear voices that remind you that you are not alone in this journey.
✔️ You love storytelling that moves you, inspires you, and makes you laugh and cry in the best way.

Where the Voices of Women Are Heard, Felt & Celebrated
A day of stories, shared live on stage because Motherhood is messy, magical, and everything in between. But too often, the stories of mothers—the nurturers, the caregivers, the ones holding it all together—go unheard.
Mothertelling is here to change that.
Step into a room where raw, real, and remarkable stories come to life. A space where laughter and tears flow freely, where vulnerability is met with understanding, and where every story shared becomes a thread in the greater fabric of motherhood.
Why You Can’t Miss This Event
✨ Powerful storytelling: Hear true, heartfelt stories from mothers sharing their joys, struggles, triumphs, and heartbreaks. Every story is different, yet every story is relatable.

✨ Emotional and unforgettable: Past attendees have described Mothertelling as "an art and a gift wrapped in one" and "a day where you’ll need a tissue—or the whole box!"
✨ For you, wherever you are in your journey: Whether you’re a new mom, a seasoned parent, or someone who simply loves hearing powerful stories, this event will stay with you long after the day ends
What past attendees are saying!
💛 "Setting the intention of finding your community is one thing, stepping into the experience of finding them is another & I'm grateful to report, I have found them. An incredible woman bringing together incredible women whom bravely share their stories, step out of comfort zones, evoke feelings & releasing of emotions within themselves & in the audience, all leading with light through storytelling - those are my kind of people - thank you Courtney!"
💛 "What an incredible experience. Truly. I actually booked my ticket last minute as my sister in law was a story teller. I really went in to support her but ended up so tuned in and in tears with every single story teller. Everyone so different yet so relatable. It was beautiful and I literally cannot wait to attend then next one!"
💛 "As mothers, our needs often fall behind everyone else’s. Having our own voices heard in this way is a gift."
