How We Are Empowered as Moms

Motherhood is a very beautiful but challenging journey. As a mother, it is normal and very easy to feel overwhelmed and exhausted. It is important to find balance during this time for you and your children’s well-being. We can only be the best versions of ourselves if we take the time to take care of ourselves.

Leadership begins with motherhood

A mother has to wear multiple caps in life. Taking care of our children, planning and organizing meals, cleaning and daily life help us develop a variety of skills. These skills include multitasking, organizing, delegating, negotiating, and general management. While many times we may feel discouraged and underappreciated, it is important to remember we are our children’s first experience with courage and leadership. If we can navigate the mommy world, we have the ability to run any business. Reminding ourselves of this, empowers and encourages us not to give up even when we are being pushed to our limits. 

Prioritize self-care

It is easy for us to postpone self-care with the busy mommy schedules we have. However, in the end, this works against us. Prioritizing our self-care goes a long way to ensure we remain balanced and take better care of our children. Set some time daily to pamper yourself on your own terms. Whether it’s extra time in the shower, a spa visit, or even just a much-needed nap. We should be diligent about this since it is the basis of our well-being.

Find a community

Every mom is special on her own. We all have our ways of doing things; therefore, we create our unique motherhood experience.  However, being part of a community helps you interact with other mothers and learn from them as well.

This will make you feel you are not alone as you connect with other women who are going through the same experience and will inspire you.  Join our online community to gain support in your motherhood journey.

Maintain a hobby

Becoming a mother does not mean that's all we are. We should also continue with our creative pursuits to help us stay balanced and in control. Set four to five hours in a week to pursue what feeds your soul. Reading, writing, yoga, pottery - the options for an outlet are endless. Start something new to discover the person you have become or get back to something you used to love. Consistently use that time and increase it as more becomes available. Staying creative will help us develop creative solutions to our problems.

Motherhood is an extraordinary journey that allows us to be both students and teachers. Children do not come with handbooks, we learn on the job. As we guide the development and lives of our children, they teach and train us to be better versions of ourselves. The journey is empowering in itself, and we can make it even better and more fulfilling for both, us and our children by taking care of ourselves first.
