About this listen

In this episode, we are talking about the ongoing struggle many mothers face when trying to achieve the elusive concept of "balance" in their lives. With the chaos of motherhood constantly changing and unpredictable, I share my experiences and challenges this week, including noisy builders, sleepless nights, and juggling the demands of four young kids.

I want to dismantle the notion of perfect balance, highlighting how striving for an unattainable ideal only leads to feelings of failure and unworthiness. Instead, we need to look inward, trust our instincts, and create our own rules and guidelines that work for our unique families.

This episode serves as a refreshing reminder that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to motherhood. It's about finding clarity, calmness, and ease in the chaos, and letting go of the pressure to conform to external expectations. By embracing the ever-changing nature of motherhood and staying present in the moment, mothers can find their own version of balance and create the life they want.

Tune in for an honest and empowering discussion that will resonate with mothers navigating the challenges of modern parenting.
