With Mother’s Day around the corner we wanted to give you a friendly reminder of how wonderful you are! In a world full of unrealistic expectations, we as humans are stuck in a role that we play trying to prove we fit in. It is a constant struggle of hiding the truth; that we all have insecurities, feel inadequate and ill equipped.
I believe society craves authenticity. Have you ever been with some one who could care less what others think and walked through life just being them selves? Have you been with someone that is full of confidence and it rubbed off on you? The same goes for people that pretend to be something they are not. It all has the potential to rub off on you. This gets me REALLY excited! Why? Because, it’s proof t
hat we ALL have some type of influence. Imagine if we each started being 100% ourselves, we would have an epidemic of authenticity.
I was talking with a mom to be recently who mentioned she avoids Facebook groups because she fears “mom” shaming. I want to speak directly to the parents out in the world. The beauty of this day and age is that you have the opportunity and choice to parent the way you see fit for your children. It’s great to get advice and learn from other people, but at the end of the day you have to do what is best for you and your family. What you see in your favorite parent Magazine or how your favorite Instagram family portrays them selves, is all staged. No one is perfect and this is your reminder that you don’t have to be. Please give yourself grace and remember how incredible you are. You are not alone and if we start showing others we are all a work in progress – it will allow others to do the same. Be kind to yourself, relax and be you.
