šš¼How to perfectly balance mom life and work life..
Just kidding⦠I still havenāt figured it out.
Before Scarlett, my career felt like such a big part of who I was. It gave me purpose, structure, and a sense of fulfillment I poured myself into every day.
Then she came into my life, and everything shifted. Suddenly, I had a whole new purpose. One that mattered in a completely different, deeper way.
Going back to work at 5.5 months postpartum brought on a kind of guilt I didnāt expect.
How do I give my all to my patients while still having enough left in me to be the mom I want to be when I get home?
Some days I feel like I have it figured out, and other days it feels like Iām falling short in both.
I donāt have a perfect balance. I donāt have a perfect formula (even though I wish I did!).
In all of the change and chaos, Iāve found a new kind of purpose in the middle of it all.
In showing up imperfectly, in connecting deeper with other moms who feel the same, and in choosing āme tooā over pretending like I have it all together.
If you can relate mama, I see you, I get it, and Iām right there with you š¤
