Stop Mom Guilt

Let’s dive into MOM GUILT today. Mom guilt is a very real feeling and challenge for most of us. However, it is our choice to listen to it and allow it to overwhelm us. Most of us grew up with the notion that in order to be a “good mom” we have to put everyone in our family before ourselves. But I want to CHALLENGE that thinking because in my opinion it is WRONG!

When you put YOURSELF first, you are filling your cup up and when your cup is full, you feel good. When you feel good, you are able to show up and be a happier, healthier and more vibrant mom to everyone else around you.

So, what if you start to shift your thinking and instead of allowing mom guilt to tell you to not do the activities that YOU need to feel good, you acknowledged it but choose to see things differently? This is where your mindset is going to be KEY. Try one of these phrases to support you when your brain tries to talk you out of taking care of yourself.

  • Taking care of myself is taking care of others

  • It is safe to make myself a priority

  • When I feel good, I spread that goodness to my family

  • I am worthy of doing things that help me feel my best
