Welcome to episode 10 of A Love Letter to Motherhood!
In today's episode, we are talking about Mom Allies. Now, mom allies are completely different from what we talked about in episode 04 in "it takes a village". Our village is full of friends and family, the people we consistently rely on for help in our motherhood journey.
But what about the strangers? The people we pass throughout our day and have minor interactions with throughout motherhood. How can those people be allies or if you're that person, how can you be an ally to a mom out on the streets?
I hope you find some nourishment for your soul in today’s episode & know you’re not alone. I’ll talk to you in the next love letter.
Love & light,
Jalesa

Welcome to episode 06 of A Love Letter to Motherhood!
In today's episode, we're talking about all the things we forget to prioritize as mothers.
Just because we have kids doesn't mean our lives stop. It doesn't mean our wants and needs have to be put on the back burner. They may need to be adjusted, but they're still very possible. Our priorities are just as important as our kids. Our happiness, hygiene, health, mental state, and lives are just as important.
I hope you find some nourishment for your soul in today’s episode & know you’re not alone. I’ll talk to you in the next love letter.
Love & light,
Jalesa

Welcome Back to Episode 05 of A Love Letter to motherhood. We’re talking all things, postpartum body love, in this week’s episode.
We mamas often fall victim to bouncing back after having a baby. But what our bodies really need is acceptance as they are.
I’m sharing some of the horrible things people have said to me, the false narratives I’ve fallen victim to, and what body love actually looks like.
I hope you find some nourishment for your soul in today’s episode & know you’re not alone. I’ll talk to you in the next love letter.
Love & light,

Welcome back to another episode of A Love Letter to Motherhood. We are on episode 4 and we are talking about our village. What does it actually mean when people say it takes a village and what does that village actually look like.
Last week we talked about ways to support your partner during postpartum. We're all familiar with how rough postpartum can be and how much support is needed. Well, sometimes that support isn't always going to come from your partner. Your partner is one small part of your village.
We expect our village to look like friends and family but that's not always the case. I've learned our village, the people who support us in our motherhood journey can be a variety of people.
I hope you find some nourishment for your soul in today’s episode & know you’re not alone. I’ll talk to you in the next love letter.
Love & Light, Jalesa.

Welcome back to Episode 03 of A Love Letter to Motherhood. In today's episode we are talking all things postpartum support and not just postpartum support but support from your partner. Postpartum can feel like a dark and lonely time or it can be a time of bliss if proper support is present. Often times we focus so much on the new baby that the mother is forgotten about entirely. Well, that needs to change. Moms need so much support during that fourth trimester in order to be their best selves and to embrace their new role as a mom. So we're going to be talking about 2 of my postpartum experiences because they were completely different and what support from my husband looked like during that time.
To help me better tell this, I brought in my husband, Johnathan to give his side of things.
I hope you find some nourishment for your soul in today’s episode & know you’re not alone. I’ll talk to you in the next love letter.
Love & light,
Jalesa

we’re opening up and having a real conversation about mom rage.
according to @Psychedmommy, mom rage occurs during postpartum (or even starts during pregnancy) when you feel an intense sense of anger or rage during situations that shouldn't necessarily trigger such an emotion. This rage is usually a symptom of something else such as anxiety or depression.
We’re talking about my personal experience with mom rage, identifying my triggers, and how to manage.
I’ve shared some resources on mom rage under my blog section. Be sure to check out those resources!
I hope you find some nourishment for your soul in today’s episode & know you’re not alone. I’ll talk to you in the next love letter.
