What are you doing today that’s moving you closer to the life you want or person you want to be?

You don’t have to wait until tomorrow, or the weekend, or next week, or after your through whatever feels like it’s consuming most of your time and energy.

It’s never too late in the day to make a different/better choice.

You always have a choice.💕

Today, I pushed my son 40 minutes past his nap time so that I could go for a morning walk with a new mom friend… and I’m still a good mom.

In the past I would’ve felt like I was neglecting his needs, and maybe even that I was being selfish [insert mom guilt]. That his sleep schedule, his development, etc. was more important than my needs and values.

But instead, today I prioritized my needs. My need for social connection and for fellowship.

I’ve realized taking care of me really prioritizes both of us because when my needs are met I can really show up for my son as the mom he deserves AND the mom I want to be. By filling my own cup I can better pour into his, and I believe this type of self-care and love is necessary for me to be a subjectively “good mom.”

What have you done lately to refill your cup?

Mommas, we cannot, for the sake of our mental and physical health, do it all… especially all the time!

Remember to take some time to yourself. Even if it feels selfish, I promise it’s not. If your concerned about being selfish, that means you probably go above and beyond for others most of the time. You’ve still got to take care of you so that you CAN do your best ❤️

I’ve been a mother for almost 8 months now and I can safely say the only thing I’ve learned to expect is change. Just as I become accustomed to one routine or way of doing things, my little guy goes and changes it up on me again. It’s exhausting and incredible all at the same time. I love watc...

This one is for my ladies - if you'd don't take a woman's vitamin that you love you need to give this one a try! I've been taking it for 6 months and won't be trying out anything else again. What I love most about it is that's it's designed to meet the the vitamin & mineral needs that women lack the most, AND it's made with ingredients in their naturally occurring form (rather then created in a lab) so that our bodies can best absorb everything they have to offer. Once you try it out, let me know what you think!

I'm hooked on this vitamin company and think you'll like them too. It's the only daily vitamin you need—delivered right to your doorstep. Check it out!
