Bridget Duggan is a Believer, wife, mother, and sales consultant. She is passionate about living a clean, self sufficient life. She enjoys learning and getting back to the forgotten basics - wether it be a natural childbirth journey or making things from scratch, there are undoubtedly a lot of skills out there to be learned. Let no stone be unturned along the journey for truth and purity. Drinking distilled water? Check!
When there’s so much substance, it’s hard to cap it all off with a time limit! Thankfully we have little ones who were up from their naps and needed us haha otherwise we probably would have chatted for another 2 hours.
Life with friends who support you, educate you, challenge you, and promote you is just the best kind of life to live. As we’ve gone through our collegiate, professional, relationship, and now motherhood journeys, there have been (& will always continue to be) new ways to connect no matter how much time has passed since we last spoke. I will say, personally, my favorite is the mommy connection. There is something so powerful about healthy discourse in aaaaallllllllll the different ways one can choose to parent. And boy oh boy are there many ways. If you have taken the leap into this space called motherhood, you are well aware of the snarky remarks, passing judgments, fake support, and various ways you can be lead astray.
But, once you do find the gems, the diamonds in the rough if you will, hold them dear, build that love & trust, and never let it go! Take it from me…
