Becoming The Woman You Want To Be

Becoming a mother is undoubtedly one of life's most precious experiences, However, it does come with its fair share of challenges. Balancing the responsibilities of motherhood with pursuing your dreams can often feel overwhelming. However, when I became a mother, I made a conscious decision not to abandon the things that bring me joy and fulfillment.

Here are five ways, I'm able to do just that....

Remember who "YOU" are

It's important to recognize that being a mother is only one aspect of who you are. While motherhood is incredibly fulfilling, it's also essential to stay connected to other things you love. This involves engaging in activities and fostering relationships that create satisfaction and a sense of fulfillment.

Staying connected to the things you love, such as hobbies, interests, and relationships helps you recharge mentally and emotionally.

Never seek validation

Early in my journey, I realized the importance of not seeking validation from others. Depending on someone else to affirm my worth often led to a lot of letdowns. The truth is, not everyone will applaud your achievements, and that's okay. I've come to embrace celebrating my victories, big or small. Whether I conquer a personal goal or simply make progress, I've learned to give myself credit.

Stop being afraid of letting go

Truth is as you climb higher towards your goals, not everyone and everything can come along for the ride. It's a tough truth, but an important one: you have to be okay with that. Bringing along the wrong people or things can weigh you down and keep you from reaching your full potential.

Always do the self-work

Doing the self-work is crucial. Decide to give yourself the love and care you deserve. Just like tending to a garden helps it thrive, taking time for self-reflection and growth allows you to blossom into your fullest potential. When doing this you nurture yourself mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Investing in yourself is a beautiful journey of self-discovery and empowerment that benefits not just you, but everyone around you

Work towards your dreams daily

Being a mom means juggling a million things, but let's not forget our dreams. Remember, even the biggest achievements start with small steps. So, whether it's delving into your passion or just 30 minutes of learning daily, let's stay consistent. Your dreams are worth it momma!
