Many moms I talk to don’t actually lack support. They have partners who offer to take the kids. And yet. They still don’t take it. 🤯 They wipe the counter instead. I don’t think this is a time problem. Somewhere along the way, a lot of us learned this quiet rule: So even when space is offered, we don’t know how to step into it without guilt. This is the part no one really talks about. The slow loss of the part of you that isn’t a mom, a partner, a problem-solver, or a caretaker. Later this week, I’ll share what I teach moms who want to take up space in their own lives again without blowing up their relationships or disappearing into self-improvement mode. For now, just sit with this question: When was the last time you took time for yourself without explaining it, justifying it, or feeling guilty about it? I’ll be back soon, |

I want to share something I see often, and I say it with a lot of tenderness. When a mom keeps pushing herself to the bottom of the list, something usually starts to grow in the background. Not all at once.Quietly. It can look like resentment that doesn’t have a clear target.A numbness where joy used to be.A sense of being needed, but not really known. Most women don’t wake up one day and think, “I want a different life.” They wake up and realize they’ve been living on the sidelines of their...
