Being her mom is my favorite thing in this world 🤍

Everything else comes after.

I hustle, I build, I stay in beast mode…

but with her, I just get to be.

Loving her, guiding her, growing with her—

that’s the real win for me.

She’s not just watching me… she’s becoming everything I pray for.

... Read moreBeing a mom while maintaining a driven career is a unique challenge that requires tremendous balance and love. From my own experience, I can say that embracing both roles fully allows you to grow not just as a professional, but as a person and a parent. There are days when the hustle feels overwhelming, but those quiet moments spent with your child make all the difference. It’s important to recognize that motherhood isn’t about perfection but showing up every day with love and guidance. Your child learns from your strength and vulnerability — it’s inspiring to watch them become the person you hope for simply by modeling resilience and kindness. Incorporating the idea of "beast mode" isn’t about pushing harder at work but about fierce dedication to all parts of your life. Being a #GirlMom means celebrating the unique bond you share with your daughter, empowering her to grow with confidence, and savoring the small victories in everyday life. I have learned to cherish the moments when I can just "be" with my child, without distractions. That presence fosters connection and teaches my daughter the value of love and commitment. Balancing hustle with heart is tough, but ultimately, it’s what makes motherhood the most rewarding journey.

I am a teen mom. I know it is not the best thing but it is what my choices let to. I love my daughter and will do anything for her. These are just a few things that I have experienced. I will never glorify being a teen mom. It is one of the hardest things I have ever been through, but I will share

A screenshot of a text message conversation. The first message, from a father to Monique, announces the passing of his mother. Monique's reply expresses sorrow, asks about funeral preparations, and acknowledges her limited but caring relationship with her grandmother, ending with 'How are you feeling right now?'. An overlay asks, 'Am I being insensitive?'
Am I being insensitive?
My sister says that I am because I replied back and I could not say a lot because I was not close to my dad’s mom. So…. Am I being insensitive with my response to his text? #Lemon8Diary #Sensitive
