252. You Can Thrive in Any Season of Motherhood | Meg of Flourishing Motherhood


Listen Later

As mothers, we are often sold lies about what our lives will look like while raising children. Unfortunately, many of these voices paint motherhood in a negative light. At the beginning of her motherhood journey, Meg was quick to recognize these lies and embrace a different outlook instead. This conversation is incredibly encouraging for any mother who is ready to embrace her current season of motherhood with all its blessings and challenges. Meg urges us to lean into our personalities and strengths as mothers and stop comparing ourselves to what others are doing. What will it take for your unique family to flourish? Listen in to take your next step!

In this episode, we cover:

  • Overturning the narrative that your life is over when you become a mother
  • How to find your own unique inspiration in motherhood without falling prey to comparison
  • Being honest with yourself about your season of life and embracing flexibility
  • Assessing what mental blocks are hindering you from getting things done
  • How Meg and her family have traveled the world together even while raising young kids
  • The beauty of allowing your personality as a mother to influence your family’s daily rhythm
  • Embracing your strengths and delegating your weaknesses in building community
  • Talking through the logistics of finding and growing friendships as a mom
  • The problem with perfectionism in health, homeschooling, diet, etc.
  • Weighing your values when it comes to deciding where to make compromises
  • The importance of sifting through the mass of conflicting information and finding what works for you
