I am so glad you are here.

 

I want to share my journey, my excitement, my fears and my learnings with you. As women, we are stronger together and can learn so much from one another. This is a safe and welcoming space, where I hope you will visit often. Even if it’s just to have a laugh at the expense of one of my life’s mis-happenings.

On these pages you will find recipes, stories, fitness ideas and essential oils community information. All my blogs and recipes are absolutely free for you to enjoy, always.

Again welcome, Caitlin X

THE MAMAS COLLECTIVE is an inspirational and interactive destination for the mama of today. I love being a mama, however, ‘losing yourself in/to motherhood’ can be so real. I’m here to connect with women and mamas who love and embrace motherhood, but also want to retain a sense of self! 

There is no parenting advice or judgement here- just support through shared stories, contributor posts & interviews. I love to chat all things mamahood, fitness, holistic health, womens wellness, pregnancy, postpartum, beauty/makeup, essential oils and food! 

I love to have a laff and to say all of the things that get brushed! Of course, my favourite little people feature frequently, cause lets face it, they're WAY cuter than me.

THE MAMAS COLLECTIVE founder Caitlin Langford, lives in Brisbane with her gorgeous life partner, Ryan and their four wildlings. Otis (crystal loving, soccer playing, book worm), Aminah (pronounced A-mee-naa) (golden curly girl, warrior, vivacious, dance addict), Arlo (the best humoured and most cuddly tiny terrorist going round), and Inika (blue eyed, juicy peach)!

I'm the kind of gal who'll eat a block of chocolate waiting for the kale chips to roast! My favourite books are harrowing autobiographies, but I'll indulge in crap on Netflix. I love to sink a bottle of champagne and dance on tables, but mostly I'm happiest in my trackies on the couch. I'm an organic loving whole foods mama, with a dash of anxiety if people don't wash their hands. If I was a drink, I'd be a home-brewed kombucha, with a stiff nip of Hendrick's Gin!

In my pre-baby life I worked many different jobs. Mostly as an Registered Nurse in women's health (gynaecology, gynae-oncology). I have degrees in Nursing and Fine Arts (yep - another one of those massive life contradictions)! I've tried my hand at many many things, and have owned my own businesses along the way.

Since becoming a mama, I have found my true passion to be connecting with like minded women. I have always been very passionate about fitness, food and women's health, and connection. I have recently started my DoTERRA business, which just feels like an organic progression. It feels like ALL of the things I love combined into one heart-centered business! I love fashion, creativity, activewear, birth stories, family, beauty and skincare. I am really concerned about how we treat this earth, and I really hope we can all try to tread more gently so we can leave a better place for our little people!

What started as a social media diary to connect with other 'fit mums,' soon became a place of sharing my stories of motherhood which has bred a community of like-minded mamas. Now, this space is for ALL of us! I hope you love it.

I endeavour to share, not just the highlights, but also delve into, the hard to speak about moments of motherhood. 

I want to unite mamas, by offering this platform to women with a story to tell.

A carefully curated collection of eats from my very humble kitchen!

 

From my
kitchen to yours

Food, eating, mealtimes; really are the heartbeat of the home. I try to keep it as wholesome as possible! I have a passion for whole foods, local produce, sustainable, seasonal fare. I am also a busy mama, and I need to feed a tribe daily, so I am far from perfect. I like to find that ‘sweet spot’ somewhere in the middle. Let’s say, 80% organic kale, 20% chips and wine 😘


Sharing meals in good company can both nurture and delight us!
Have a seat at my table.

What are essential oils?

An essential oil is a hydrophobic liquid that contains volatile aromatic compounds from various parts of the plant. That sounds pretty confusing, right? Let’s break it down and see if that helps.

Essential oils have been used for thousands of years in a variety of physical and emotional applications. doTERRA continues to provide the purest and most potent oils that can be used in skin care products, aromatherapy, food preparation, health solutions, and more. When you break it down, essential oils are not too difficult to understand after all!

It’s so much more than strength and conditioning. It’s movement for health, wellness, empowerment (and sanity).
