Standing on me even when it’s hard 🤍

When life be lifing as an early postmenopausal mom with 2 men children on your nerves 😩....

....and you gotta remind them real quick who you used to be 😅

Meanwhile, your 7~year-old sweetface said “nope” to getting her hair brushed.... but we did it anyway 😂

Slightly crazy inside?! Maybe.

Still standing?! ALWAYS.

Still smiling?! You already know 🤍

“I celebrate me.... yeah I’m standing on me… even when it’s hard, I’m who I need to be” 🎶

Thank you TikTok filters for helping me look sane 🤣

This is your reminder: it’s okay to laugh instead of cry tonight.

Comment “I’M STANDING ON ME” if you felt this 👇

Being an early postmenopausal mom comes with a unique set of challenges that many don’t talk about openly. From fluctuating hormones affecting mood and energy to the daily hustle of managing teenage boys and a young child, it’s a whirlwind that tests patience and strength every day. One thing I’ve learned through my own journey is the power of embracing imperfection and finding humor in the chaos. When kids refuse simple things like brushing their hair or when tension runs high with your teenage sons, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. But reminding myself "I’m standing on me," a phrase filled with empowerment, helps ground me in these moments. It’s about honoring who I am and what I’ve been through — including the early menopause transition — while still showing up fully for my family. Humor and small victories play a big role too. Sometimes, a silly TikTok filter or a shared laugh with my kids can shift the whole mood and remind me it’s okay to smile despite the crazy moments. Real life isn’t always polished, and celebrating that reality is incredibly freeing. If you’re a mom balancing these complexities, remember you’re not alone. Celebrate your strength, your quirks, and those moments when you keep standing, even when it’s hard. It’s in those moments of vulnerability and courage that we find our true resilience as moms and as women.
