Coming out of 3 weeks of very intensive mom life being with both kids (toddler and 6 month old baby) at home by myself pretty much, because the kindergarten was closed due to corona virus & my husband physically at work, I confirmed my belief that motherhood is the toughest job on earth and mothers are the strongest humans. I don't believe this just based on my own experience, but talking to so many friends who've had their first or second child recently and thinking about my mother's and grandmothers' experiences is confirming this belief time and time again. Mothers are creating wonders every day, making the impossible possible. Giving their best just to make sure that their little wildlings are turning out the best way possible. Yet so many of us are constantly feeling like it's not enough, that we're bad moms or feel guilty for not being able to do it all. When I started my journey as a mother, I felt all those things. But there were 3 things that I have learned over time that have allowed me to become the most confident mom and develop deep trust in myself as a mom. And guilt? No more chance with me you sucker. And thinking about all those tough, strong, wonderful women out there who are experiencing those worries, doubts, fears, shames and feelings of guilt makes me really mad and sad. I don't want any mom who shows up every day giving her best to feel like a bad mom or guilty for wanting it all, the professional and personal success. So if you are struggling with parts of those things, tune in to this week's episode where I, amongst many other things, talk about: 3 biggest takeaways that helped me become a confident AF mom What habit is making you give away your power constantly How I released mom guilt from my life Why spending less time on social media can improve your self trust & confidence If you're interested in checking out the other episodes I mentioned in this episode, check them out here: Episode with Paola about becoming a VP at Nielsen and being a mom Episode with Mara about finding yourself and motherhood
