Grounded and Connected An Evening for sport parents
By Isabel Prystawik – Motionally Counselling and Facilitation

Sport parenting is a lot — the early mornings, long drives, emotional highs and lows, and constant pressure to hold it together for your athlete. This workshop offers you a rare pause to reset and reconnect with yourself, so you can keep showing up with steadiness and care.
Supporting the people behind the athletes
What this Workshop Offers
Grounded and Connected is a 75-minute, in-person workshop created to support the people behind the athletes — the parents who carry so much of the emotional and practical load of sport life.
This is not about parenting better or fixing anything about how you show up. It’s about supporting you — so you can keep supporting your athlete without running yourself into the ground.
In this workshop you’ll be guided through gentle, practical activities that help you:
In this workshop you’ll be guided through gentle, practical activities that help you:
Settle your nervous system after stressful moments
Reset when emotions run high at games or practices
Feel steadier in big conversations with your child
Respond rather than react when pressure builds
Reconnect with yourself instead of staying in survival mode
Everything offered is optional and invitational. There is no pressure to speak, share, or perform — you participate only to the level that feels right for you.
What parents usually notice
Parents often leave feeling:
More grounded and emotionally steady
Less reactive during intense moments
Clearer and more confident supporting their kids
Less overwhelmed by the emotional demands of sport
More like themselves again — not just the person holding everything together
Many are surprised by how quickly simple practices create more calm and breathing room.
Who this is for
This workshop is for sport parents who:
Feel stretched thin or emotionally worn down
Want to stay calm during sport stress instead of snapping or shutting down
Care deeply about their kids but haven’t been caring for themselves
Are open to something supportive, practical, and human — not clinical
If any part of this sounds familiar, you belong here.
Your Facilitator
Hi — I’m Isabel Prystawik, founder of Motionally Counselling and Facilitation.
I work with individuals who are ready to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and build steadiness from the inside out. I’m not here to fix anyone — I create space for people to find their own footing again with warmth, simplicity, and respect.
Your invitation
Sport parents give a lot — and you deserve support too.
This workshop is a chance to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself so you can keep showing up for your athlete with steadiness and care.
