đź’» Part 1: Married But Carrying It All
The blog discusses the burden many women face in managing domestic responsibilities despite being in working partnerships. It highlights outdated beliefs about domestic labor as “women’s work,” often perpetuated by societal norms and upbringing. This imbalance leads to resentment and emotional disconnection, urging women to speak up for equitable partnerships in their marriage relationships.
3 Ways to Reclaim Your Identity Without Mom Guilt
As moms, we’re conditioned to give.
We give our time.
Our energy.
Our sleep.
Our peace.
And often, we do it so automatically that we don’t even realize how much of ourselves we’ve poured out—until we’re running on empty, feeling resentful, or lost in the constant shuffle of motherhood, work, and expectations.
But here’s the truth:
You deserve to be on your own priority list.
You deserve balance that doesn’t feel like a juggling act.
You deserve boundaries that protect your peace.
You deserve to feel whole—not just as a mom, but as you.
✨ Here are 3 simple ways to start reclaiming your identity—without the mom guilt:
- Schedule “You Time” Like an Appointment
Even 15 minutes a day to journal, walk, read, or just be can remind you that your needs matter too. Don’t cancel on yourself. - Say “Yes” to Help and “No” to Overload
You don’t have to do it all to be a good mom. Saying “no” isn’t selfish—it’s self-respect. - Reconnect with What Lights You Up
Whether it’s painting, dancing, writing, or brunch with friends—do more of what feels like you. The more you nourish your spirit, the more you can pour into others with joy, not depletion.
You are still you. And you’re allowed to take up space—in your life and in your family—without guilt.
