Tessa Romero is deeply passionate about helping mothers become the moms they truly want to be—grounded in a strong, resilient mindset. With personal experience in trauma and healing, she has walked the difficult path of self-discovery and transformation.

After years of therapy, she developed her own healing process, built on powerful shifts in perspective and a deep understanding of motherhood's unique challenges.Through her journey, Tessa has learned to embrace life's challenges as opportunities for growth. Her ability to see perspectives others may miss is what makes her coaching so impactful.

She knows firsthand the struggles mothers face—anger, exhaustion, and the feeling of being stuck—and she is committed to helping women break free from limiting beliefs. Tessa's heart for this work stems from her own transformation.

During her first pregnancy, she realized that traditional therapy wasn't giving her the tools she needed to truly heal. She discovered that the way she thought directly shaped her reality—and that by shifting her mindset, she could step into the calm, patient, and present mother she aspired to be. Now, through MOMSET, Tessa is building a community that empowers moms with the tools and support they need to create lasting change. She is excited to grow the MOMSET team, expand its reach, and help even more women step into motherhood with confidence, joy, and clarity.
