Why Routines Are Important For Mothers
“In general, routines can help with life changes as well. When having a strong foundation where you know how to manage your day to day, it prepares you for life altering events such as the COVID pandemic of the 2020s, by helping you remain grounded. Overall, routines bring less stress and more peace of mind.”
Single Mothers Finding Balance + Wellness
“Self care is not about luxurious treatments all the time. It is about taking the time to rejuvenate your mind and body from the stresses you endure daily. For the curious single moms, there is this preconceived notion that one must have an excessive amount of money and resources in order to take care of themselves. Self care can simply be having your child play in their room while you sit in your bed and go read a book for 10 minutes. Self care can also be partnering with other moms agreeing to watch each other’s kids so that each mom has the opportunity to relieve their stress. It is a matter of being attentive to what sparks joy in you.”

Prioritizing Your Wellness to have BALANCE in your Motherhood
“It is never going to be perfect. What this does is leads you to continue to procrastinate because you're waiting for something that is unrealistic and unsustainable. Perfection is something we should never be shooting for in motherhood. Especially as working mothers - nothing is going to be perfect. But you know what it can be… it can be complete.”
