Well into my first year of motherhood, as I was finding my routine as a working mom, I began to find myself feeling too rigid. I pride myself in creating structures that work for me and my family, but the structure began to feel too tight in a way that I couldn’t ignore. There is an imbalance between the masculine and feminine energies within me. If I’m being honest, my desire to provide and also nurture and raise my son nearly broke me.
I felt lost. And the sad truth is, too many mothers know this feeling. I have always been a glass-half-full type of person, but the reality is, many moms do not have enough support to maintain their own well-being. My intention here is to get back to something that makes me feel like me again. Writing. Creating. Living with intention. While also hoping to make someone feel less alone in their own journey. And maybe help a mom tap back into what makes her feel like her again.
