Hey everyone! In this episode, I'm getting real about the struggle of balancing motherhood, personal ambitions, and career goals. I share my own journey of giving up on a dream of becoming a doctor and then going back to school years later as a mom. We all hear about "having it all," but what does that even mean? I challenge that idea and encourage you to define success on your own terms.
Here are some key takeaways:
➡️Redefine what having it all means for you: Societal expectations can be overwhelming. Ditch the pressure and create your own definition of success.
➡️It's okay to change your goals: Life throws curveballs! Be flexible and adjust your dreams as your circumstances change.
➡️Communication is key: Talk openly with your partner about your needs and work together to find balance.
➡️Don't be afraid to pivot: Sometimes our dreams take unexpected turns. Embrace the journey and redefine your path as needed.
➡️Give yourself grace: There will be bumps in the road. Be kind to yourself and celebrate your achievements, big and small.
This is a conversation starter for anyone feeling burnt out or overwhelmed. You're not alone, mama! Let's rewrite the rules and find fulfillment together.
