You’ve probably noticed that the phrase as “self-love” has kind of been popularized on the internet in the past few years or so. I think that we’re definitely moving into a generation that understands that beating yourself up or living with self-guilt or just generally feeling bad about yourself, does not help you better yourself.

Because in order to truly become the best version of yourself, and get to the next level, and achieve more, you have to begin with loving yourself first and accepting yourself just where you are.

As you know if you’ve been a listener for a while, I went on my own self-love journey last year, and I want to share with you what...

So today I am going to talk to you about something my 6 year old had suggested. I asked her, if you were a mom, and you wanted to help other moms, what would you tell them. And she thought for a moment, and she said, “I would tell them to stay focused,”

How’s that for a 6 year old? So for this episode my daughter would like to remind you to stay focused.

What’s distracting you from your goals and from creating the life you want to live my friend?

Today I wanted to share with you a replay of my interview with Amanda Gorman on the Finding Your Village Podcast. Now you may have heard Amanda right here on the Motivation For Moms podcast a few weeks ago when I interviewed her on the episode called, “How to get out of a rut” and I had the pleasure of being interviewed on her show where we talked about my struggle with D-MER, which is Dysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex, but we also talked a little about my journey of how I started I business, and how I turned my mess into my message. We talked about other breastfeeding challenges, why we like to share birth stories with other moms, and why moms are some of the...

“My biggest struggle is sleep. My daughters just won't go to bed and stay there. I have tried being nice, being mean, setting goals and limits with no luck. Help! Because of the poor sleeping habits that goes into the next struggle. Health and fitness. I wake up so sleepy and no energy that getting up in time before work to workout is not happening. And lastly, we (husband, girls and myself) are home all day everyday now, I have noticed that there is something that husband and I disagree on or someone ends up mad before the end of day. Nothing specific, could be...

It’s really no question why moms get so overwhelmed, you could probably come up with three reasons right now, you could probably come up with at least three solutions right now. So why are you listening to this episode?

The reason is likely because you keep finding yourself in the same place over and over again and you’re asking yourself how you keep letting the overwhelm happen.

It’s so ironic to me that we, as some of the strongest, capable, resourceful, resilient, figure-it-out people in the universe, and I truly, truly believe that we are, are also the ones who doubt ourselves the most. We constantly beat ourselves up. We constantly second guess ourselves. We worry that we’re never doing it right, we worry that we’re never doing enough, we worry that we’re always getting it wrong.

We dismiss our role and the importance and value of our role as “just moms,” especially if we are not financially contributing to the family, or if we don’t make a lot of money, as if that some how has anything to do with our worth (spoiler alert sister, it...
