Mama's Daily Dose

Did you lose your identity when you became "mom?"

Not sure who you are and who you want to be?

In order to embrace and create your identity now, you must mourn and let go of what you lost. Becoming a mom is a beautiful, wonderful event. But you also lost parts of you in the process.

We are not given the time and space to mourn and be upset about what you lost when you became a mom.

Make the space to create your identity by letting go of what you lost. Make a list of everything you lost when you became a mom - sleep, time, friends, job, money, freedom, etc.

Take the time to mourn what you lost this will allow the space to bring in what you want to your life...listen in to episode 271 for more on this.

"Personality is not stable but changes regardless of whether you're purposeful about that change or not" - Dr. James Hardy from Personality Isn't Permanent
 
An excellent quote from my all time favorite personal development book.

Your personality is not the same as when you were in high school or even before you became a mom. Our personalities change throughout our lives whether we want them to or not.

You can be in control of the person you want to be and the personality you want. What does future you look like? You get to choose. Choose her, and start acting like her today.

Most people are NOT afraid of failure, you're actually afraid of success. Take a listen to episode 267 if you haven't yet.

What happens when you fail? Are you a failure?

When something doesn't work out, you quit, or fall short of a goal that doesn't mean YOU are a failure. That means it didn't work out!

It wasn't a complete loss. Goals are about who you become in the process of working towards your goal, not checking off that you accomplished it.

So, let's play worst case scenario - you don't achieve your goal. What did you learn? Who did you become? What experience did you gain?

As long as you learn and grow along the way, there are no failures.

If you have ever said, "I'm afraid of failing..." listen to this...

Most people aren't afraid of failing, they are actually afraid of succeeding!

If you fail, where does that put you? Most likely about where you are now. However, if you succeed where will you be? You don't know, you've never been there, it is unknown!

When you succeed there comes much more responsibility, something that moms already have plenty of! So are you really afraid of failing, or are you afraid of succeeding?

The rest of June we are talking "mom identity." Who you are, who you were and who you want to be.

It can be difficult to enjoy the now. You have memories from the past and you are looking towards the unknown in the future.

There are times to reflect on the past and dream about the future, and there are time to live in the now.

For today, embrace today. Let the past and the future go and live for today.

Thank you for celebrating 1 year of Mama's Daily Dose this past week!

Here is the last replay of the celebration!
REPLAY 03 - If moms ruled the world

Imagine it...moms rule the world! What would the world look like? Probably, much more caring, organized and efficient!

Let's continue to raise the bar for ourselves, inspire our kids and see the ripple effect throughout the world.

But wait...moms are already so busy and overwhelmed. How to give more to others and change the world.

It starts with you. Taking care of you so you can give to others. You aren't able to give what you don't have.

If you want to give energy, you must replenish your energy first. If you want to give money you must have money to give first. If you want to give love, you must have love in you to give.

Give yourself what you want to give your kids and the world at large.

1 Year Celebration continues with another replay!

This question on Tik Tok blew my mind!
REPLAY: 26 - Who are you for yourself?

Through life we are so defined by our roles. But who are you for you?
You want to be a better mom.
You want to be a better wife.
You want to be a better daughter, sister, employee, etc.

These are all for other people.

But who do you want to be for YOU?

Take away all those roles and titles and who do you want to be?

The 1 year celebration continues with a replay of one of my favorite podcasts!

REPLAY 85: You're going to get kicked in the balls

This is both a figurative and literal saying when you become a parent.
What is something they don't tell you about being a parent that you don't learn until you become a parent?

You can research, read the books, talk to other parents, consult experts but there are still unknowns in parenting. Some you don't know until you're in the thick of it!

Share with me on IG about what you learned when you become a parent and what they don't tell you before!

Learn how to set and achieve your goal! Only 7% of people actually achieve their New Year's goals...so what do they actually do?

There is emotion tied to their goal! Learn how you can really feel your goal and then achieve it!

Formula for goals:
I am so (emotion) that I (achieved goal) by (due date) because (your why).
