As a mother, YOU are worthy of nourishment too.
I want to share one of my clients stories and the incredible ripple effects both her and her family have experienced, from taking gentle but intentional action 💛
~
For years, she felt caught in the middle: do I nibble on something with the kids at 5pm or wait to eat a “proper meal” with my husband later?
That in-between space meant dinner became less about nourishing herself and more about helping and supporting the kids ("More tomato sauce please! I want another drink... I don't want this flavour!!")
But when I suggested that she sit down, eat and enjoy dinner with her kids at 5:30pm, everything shifted:
🍽️ She felt calmer and more connected with her kids and body at the table.
🌸 Her kids started mirroring her relaxed approach to food.
🥦 She felt genuinely satisfied, not just grabbing scraps or leftovers.
✨ She stopped the cycle of overeating late at night.
💪 Eating earlier even gave her the energy to exercise in the evening—instead of collapsing on the couch by 8pm.
Sometimes, the biggest changes in family mealtimes happen when mums remember they are worthy of nourishment too.
If you’ve been stuck in “serve mode” or putting off your own meals, let this be your reminder: you are allowed to nourish, rest and be a role model at the table. The benefits ripple far beyond the plate.
