Motherhood vs. Momma Guilt

✨️Motherhood & Momma Guilt.😫

Motherhood is special and rewarding, and it's also freaking H A R D.

The highs, lows, ebbs, and flows that come with motherhood. Through each age, phase, and chapter- it's new, harder, and joyful all at the same time. Like sunshine 🌞 mixed with a tornado 🌪.

💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

Quoted in my book, Broken Open, "I just wanted to take my little family of 4 and our 2 dogs and move to an island somewhere..."

😕I remember the days that it felt like I was SUFFOCATING from that feeling.

🌱

Being an entrepreneur - a life coach for women, dance studio owner, momma, wife, friend, mentor - and wearing SO many more 'unmentioned hats'.

I have a commitment & it's such a PRIVILEGE to wear so many 👒 🎩.

✨️I am truly honored. ✨️🌱

Sometimes, I feel that "tug and pull."

Especially when it comes to Momma Guilt. For example, the picture you see is today: my super sick baby girl home, who has a serious disease, and when she's sick its scary...but I have to show up in other areas in life that are important=

Momma Guilt. 😔😫😥😟

Any one else??? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️

The inward work I continue to evolve reminds me... when those tug and pull moments feel heavy- I just need to place my hand on my heart, honoring that shift, and then reach into my personal toolbox for a 'mindset reset'. 👈

Reminding myself of ALL the incredible hats I wear and how so many INCREDIBLE HUMANS have been put in my path BECAUSE OF this inward work I've done- they 'show up' when the struggle is real. ✨️

I'm certain that this ever evolving work that I do as a woman, life coach, as their Momma, has truly rubbed off in positive ways, teaching them it's okay to have these moments in life and most of all, my children are holding a higher awareness, understanding and appreciation for what it means to wear many hats and who THEY ARE. ❤️

How❓️

Because I've been breaking FREE of toxic cycles in my life that continue to create a happier and healthier path for me, but more importantly for them. ✨️🌎
