I am so thrilled to welcome @nabela back to BDA today! We last spoke when she was pregnant with her daughter, and now she is pregnant with her second daughter! Nabela has been so open and honest about the experience of being a mom, sharing both the good and the bad. Nabela spoke about how she posts her “Pockets of Peace” which are moments of the day that she is grateful for. She embraces choosing joy and happiness, but not toxic positivity, which is why we also addressed the very real issue of mom shaming. Nabela has been very open about unsolicited comments and advice that comes with sharing her life, and the very real impact that can have on her mental wellbeing. But, she also shared that only you can determine the power that someone else’s words have! 

 

We also chatted about life with 2 daughters close in age, as my girls are 19 months apart, and Nabela’s will be a little closer. I’m so excited for her and her family to have the joy of a new baby, more love, and we all should celebrate along with them. Thank you as always, Nabela, for sharing your time and your positivity with me! Sign up for today’s newsletter for more insight and some of my favorite things!
