In this episode we’re chatting about :  The way I see it, self-care is simply taking care of yourself, however you need it, at this moment. Addressing your own needs and desires is how you practice self-care. If you need a shower - for hydrotherapy purposes, for mental clarity purposes, for a break from the outside world, or simply because you need to be clean - that’s self-care. Don’t let anyone...

We don’t lose ourselves in motherhood, we lose ourselves in survival mode. We lose ourselves in the day to day rush. We lose ourselves in placing our value in the things we do, instead of the people we are.  We get caught in this trap of survival mode in early motherhood, and when we don’t intentionally rebuild our lives again, we tend to get stuck in a cycle of survival. This is where we lose our...

Like it or not, you’re going to have to learn to love yourself if you want any of the personal growth, mental health, or happy hacks to stick. If you’re not loving yourself, you’re not really believing you’re worthy of anything better than you’ve already got.  It may be a controversial idea, but you cannot fully love others if you don’t first love yourself. If you’re not loving yourself, you’re no...

You’re sitting here doubting your worth again. It’s become your comfort zone. You might be believing there’s no other way to live anymore. It can feel terrifying to step out of this comfort zone, it’s new, it’s unknown, and that’s scary.  Letting go of who you think you are is a process. It’s a give and take. It’s a back and forth. It’s a path with peaks and valleys.  It’s a leap of faith, steppin...

I’m so tired of hearing that moms can’t have any fun beyond going to the bathroom alone. We spend nearly 24 hours of our days in the same room as the world’s greatest fun-havers. Kids learn through play, they thrive on play, they can create play out of any situation if we allow them to - and so can we! It’s time to tap into that child-like wonder and let yourself enjoy the mundane moments in life,...

I was thinking today about the difference between a stay at home mom and a homemaker. SAHM feels confining and like a death sentence. It feels like pausing your life to raise kids, instead of building a new, full life around raising kids. Some of us lose our identity when we become moms, but for some that’s where we find our identity. So what’s the right mindset to adopt?  In this episode we’re ch...

It’s far too easy these days to play the comparison game. We fall victim to the race of keeping up with the Joneses without even realizing it anymore. This year I’m dedicated to keeping Christmas as simple as possible and I’m taking a lot of inspiration from The Grinch. It’s not about a viral $600 tree, it’s not about having the most lights, or the best dinner party, or checking every box, or movi...
