Benita Bensch

Benita Bensch is an Australian author, coach and speaker whose work explores identity, motherhood, purpose and visibility. She writes about the emotional and psychological transition of matrescence, helping women make sense of who they are becoming.

Living and working in rural Australia, Benita is especially passionate about supporting women in regional and farming communities, where the experience of motherhood can be both deeply connected and isolating.

Through her books, workshops and online offerings, she helps women reconnect with themselves and re-author their personal stories. Her work is grounded in storytelling, professional and lived experience, and a commitment to helping women feel seen - by themselves first.

Benita is a certified coach, motherhood studies practitioner, trauma-informed and neuro-affirming narrative practitioner. Seen Again: Light on Matrescence is her second book, following The Art of Trying. She lives near Moama, NSW, with her husband and four sons.
