What people are saying…

  • “Mia’s program has been the best investment I've made in myself since becoming a mother. I now approach self-care with intention and dedication, something I have struggled with for years. This program has empowered me to work on becoming the mother I aspire to be while healing from the scars of my past. It's been a lifeline during challenging times, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking to prioritize their well-being and embark on a transformative self-care journey.”

    — Ariel P.

  • "I'm forever grateful for the space that Mia has cultivated with The No Longer Last Journey, and I recommend that everyone who is struggling with self-care to join. Before joining No Longer Last I was a new working mom that was having an extremely hard time putting my needs first. Mia is a deeply empathetic person who genuinely wants to see her group members thrive, not just survive. During the monthly group sessions, Mia asks great questions for us to reflect on what we want to see for ourselves in self-care for the following month."

    — Trish R.

  • Mia is a fantastic coach, and she has great empathy because she has experienced what she is teaching and gives everyone space. An important thing to note for me is that I felt very safe to share in the group calls with a community of very respectful, kind and supportive women on this journey too. Mia's program helped me tremendously last year. I joined at a time when I was feeling so lost, broken, with severe burnout and emotionally exhausted from years of putting myself last. I especially loved the coaching calls, which were indispensable to me overcoming my burnout and emotional fatigue and beginning the journey towards finding myself again through reflection/journaling and sharing.

    — Aura

  • "The No Longer Last Journey program has been so transformative for me. Instead of focusing on just the why or the how of self-care, Mia also helps us to uncover the emotional reasons for putting ourselves last. The support and encouragement of Mia and the other women in the community has empowered me to make small changes to my weekly routine that have had a huge impact on my mental health and emotional well-being."

    — Kate D.G.

  • "Because of The No Longer Last Journey, I’ve been able to start training myself to believe that I am worth taking care of. What it has taken is deep inner work that has been largely facilitated by Mia’s experienced guidance and other women who are doing the hard work of healing themselves. I’ll always be thankful to Mia and her program. She is truly a pioneer in the mental health advocacy movement. She has shared very openly about her struggles online before it was more popular."

    — Stephanie M.

  • "Thank you Mia for changing my self-talk and self-care for the better! I came looking for a little nudge to take good care of myself and take better care of my place, and I found support and a caring community. Now I carry with me invaluable strategies that are already yielding insights and growth."

    — Karla M.

  • "I love how Mia makes each one of us feel seen. She’s like our very own empathetic cheerleader who also does the hard stuff and SHOWS you how it’s possible. No Longer Last has helped me feel less alone, and less crazy as a mom. Having our support meetings had helped me see others’ struggles, and how it all goes back to self-care and self-compassion."

    — Lizzie F.

  • "I have learned a lot about myself. Being a part of No Longer Last has given me a sense of belonging and empowerment. Being a part of No Longer Last was the gift I needed to give myself! I was hesitant at first to join as I was in the middle of a cross-country move but having this support during such a chaotic time in my life has been so helpful. Mia doesn’t shy away from talking about the hard work real self-care can be, and she is always there with gentle encouragement."

    — Trinity P.

  • "Working with Mia has been an absolute joy, source of support, and a component of my healing process that I didn't know I needed. As someone who lives with mental illness and has a lot of family with untreated mental illness, Mia has been a great model for me — seeing and hearing the way she speaks to and about herself and her journey, and the tools and coping skills she's developed helps me feel less alone, and allows me to see the behaviors of someone who's dealing with similar situations and is a bit further in their healing journey."

    — Jayde B.

For women, and especially for mothers, we spend most of our time and energy helping take care of other people, but who’s taking care of you?

Who’s making sure you’re getting rest?

Who’s checking on your mental health?

Who’s encouraging you to set boundaries?

Who’s supporting you in ditching the way things have always been so you can live life on your own terms?

Someone’s gotta be helping take care of you too because your health, happiness, and well-being matter.

Hi, I’m Mia Hemstad!

I’m a wife, mom of two, and an abuse survivor. I also live with diagnosed post-traumatic stress disorder and premenstrual dysphoric disorder.

I know what it’s like to feel deeply unworthy of love and care, and to be so burned out, exhausted, and forgotten that you don’t want to live anymore.

I think it’s an injustice that women, and especially mothers, are expected to completely neglect ourselves as a requirement of being a “good woman” and a “good mom.”

Living by the “good girl” rulebook almost killed me. I was taking care of everyone else while I was suffering from chronic, debilitating migraines, extreme fatigue, depression, and anxiety, and after years of struggle, I was ready to leave this world.

Things came to a head when I almost fainted in a grocery store when I was with my kids.

I decided I had enough and needed to change things and stop being a martyr mom if I wanted to get better.

That began my journey of learning how to stop being last all the time and actually make my health, happiness, and well-being a priority.

5 years later — dozens of lives changed.

Now, for 5 years, I’ve been teaching other women all I’ve learned about healing from trauma, practicing authentic & nourishing self-care, and empowering them to set boundaries that help them prioritize their health, happiness, and well-being.

You don’t have to be last to be loving.

You deserve to be a priority in your own life.

You deserve to choose you and not feel an ounce of guilt about it.

When you take care of yourself first, it creates a positive ripple effect that benefits every area of your life!

If you desire to prioritize your health, happiness, and well-being so that you can fully live your life — no more burnout, no more resentment, no more self-loathing — I invite you to start your own No Longer Last Journey.

These reflection guides help you…

  • Apply What You Learn

    When we take the time to write things down, we’re much more likely to stick with our plans and intentions and to remember what we learn. The reflection guides are short, and the writing prompts are thoughtful and impactful.

  • Cultivate Self-Awareness

    Self-awareness is the first step to changing anything in our lives. By taking 15-30 minutes to reflect with the guides that come with each class, you will get to know yourself better — what you need, what your obstacles are, and what happened to you that makes it so hard for you to take care of yourself.

  • Question the Stories You Tell Yourself

    As humans, we create meaning and we also inherit it from school, religion, society, family, friends, and trauma. This is how we inherited the negative story that a good woman should put herself last.

    In the reflection guides, I prompt you to question all of these stories you have inside your mind that are influencing all of your choices. Once you become aware, you get to decide to create new stories that help you instead of oppress you.
