Brave Mamas October Meet Up with Dr Lené Le Roux
Brave Mamas Meet Up: Understanding Burnout
Friday 10 October | World Mental Health Day
Motherhood asks so much of us, and somewhere along the way, many moms find themselves running on empty. But how do you know whether you’re simply tired, or experiencing burnout?
Join us for a special Brave Mamas Meet Up this World Mental Health Day, featuring Dr Lené le Roux, a Cape Town mental health GP with over a decade of experience in psychiatry and a special interest in supporting mothers’ mental health, burnout, anxiety and depression. Her approach is holistic, recognising the biological, psychological and social factors that influence our wellbeing.
In the first hour, Dr Lené will unpack what burnout really is, why it happens, how to recognise the signs, and the evidence-based steps that support recovery. In the second hour, we’ll create a safe, supportive space to reflect, share experiences and connect with other moms who understand.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or simply want to understand burnout better, you’ll leave with practical insights, hope and the reassurance that you don’t have to do this alone.
Important Info
- R140 to attend (included for Brave Mamas Members)
- We’ll meet at Kirsty’s house in Plumstantia (the address will be confirmed once payment is received). Space is limited so please book your spot early to avoid disappointment.
- This is a mom meet up. However if you need to bring your baby you are welcome too. Unfortunately toddlers will make it hard to participate so are best left at home. Thank you for understanding.
