My Struggle As A Working Mom


Listen Later

I suppose I don't get too deep into the being a working mom. My work is part time after all but honestly this internship is taking a toll on me and how I often just want to quit. The truth is I don't have a desire to leave me baby. When I am away from her my body feels it. It is my belief that mothers should not be apart from their babies in the beginning. We were not made for that. As a society we have moved so far away from that. We pride ourselves on being the person that can do it all and honestly I am here to tell you that I don't want to do it all. My exhaustion is not some badge of honor that I am proud of. I miss sleep. I miss my partner but I also miss being able to just be me all while missing my baby when she is not near me. Motherhood is crazy! This internship is crazy. And on the days I just want a glass of wine I discuss briefly why I choose not too. The truth is I struggle with alcohol and I am working on why I feel like I need that glass of wine. I don't have the answers but I am exploring. Thank you all for being on this journey with me.

Sending you all the good vibes,
Brittany
