Mon Nov 03 2025
Hey, Mama!!! Welcome back to What Self Care Looks Like, where I dive into the challenges of motherhood, so you can reclaim joy in your motherhood experience.
In this episode, I’m diving into Chapter 7 of What Self Care Looks Like. This conversation is all about rediscovering yourself within motherhood and letting go of the comparison trap.
We often try to fit into a version of motherhood that doesn’t truly align with who we are. But the truth is, motherhood looks and feels different for everyone, and that’s exactly how it should be.
Together, we’ll explore how reflection, intentionality, and self-awareness can help you parent in a way that feels natural and fulfilling, not forced or exhausting.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
How motherhood invites us into a deeper journey of self-discoveryWhy aligning your motherhood style with your identity mattersThe importance of avoiding comparison and focusing on what works for youHow reflection helps you identify your values as a momThe role of intentionality in everyday decision-makingWhy your kids need you, not constant entertainmentHow routines can bring calm to the chaosWhy self-care goes beyond routines — it’s about your mental wellnessThe power of creating a vision for your life and motherhoodWays to rediscover joy and fulfillment, even in the hardest seasonsIf you’ve ever wondered whether you’re doing motherhood “right,” this episode is your reminder that the best version of motherhood is the one that aligns with you.
