Hey there!

This one is for you Mama's out there! Becoming a Mom is the most beautiful thing in the world but I'm sure it's left you worn out, a little stressed, and stuck in the mundane of keeping little people alive. I hear ya, I have 3 of my own and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I wanted to share with you today 4 things that I have found to be helpful in my Motherhood journey. 

We are going to chat about prioritizing sleep or trying to get up earlier so you can start your day with a little quiet and an actual hot cup of coffee. I know, you're like, what is sleep Gabby? haha Just hear me out and I hope you can find the right balance and willingness to make it happen no matter the season you are in.

When you became a Mom you took on a whole new identity you never had before. I don't want you forget who YOU are though, so alongside Motherhood how can you bring in a passion or interest that lights you up? What else will give you purpose each day? Your kids will benefit greatly from seeing a Mom get excited about something she loves to do and you can get them involved too depending on what it is.

Find 1,2, or 3 women in your life who you can confide in. Relationships offline that will respond to a call or text or meet you anytime for a cup of coffee or at the park with your kids. You need a space to process, get help, and a safe space to be vulnerable. We carry so much as Mom's and I'm sure you are like me and think we can do it all and that we are fine. We eventually hit a breaking point and that is why I encourage you to find your tribe who's shoulders you can lean on in hard times and who will give sound advice and pray over you. If that's your Mom, then that is awesome but I understand not everyone has that kind of relationship with their Mom. 

Last but NOT least...your nutrition! You must set yourself up for success each day with what you choose to put in your body. It all compounds over time and if you are wondering why you have low energy, moody, anxious, overwhelmed, can't sleep, etc. then it's time to check your nutrition. It is a game changer for Mom's who want to be on top of things and feel their best. You have high energy little people to keep up with, to wake up to in the middle of the night, a house to clean, meals to make, jobs to go to....and one way you can navigate that all is by making sure you are fueling your body with purpose. Motherhood is no sprint, it's a marathon and it requires so much of you and that requires intentional fueling. 

I hope you were encouraged today and can leave here feeling more equipped to tackle each day as a Mom. Your job is so important and I see you! Pick just one or two things from this list and begin implementing them into your life and watch how things change for the better! We all want to be happier and healthier Mamas!

Hugs!
