Let me deinfleunce you for a minute

I feel like every time I post and share something, someone is always going to have something to say but Let me deinfluence you on a few things. As much as I love having my spark back, there’s still a few things that we are constantly working on. I think right now we have to expose the lies so we can get to the truth. Life isn’t always about how good things seem but it’s about the word of our testimony and that’s what helps the next person break free mentally and if this helps one person, I’m glad. ✨🫶🏽

... Read moreMotherhood is often painted as this perfect, always joyful experience, but honestly, it’s a journey filled with both highs and lows. One thing I’ve learned through my own experience is the importance of setting boundaries—not just for my kids but for myself too. For example, co-sleeping doesn’t have to ruin intimacy in a relationship; it’s really about the overall connection and how partners support each other through the nights and days. Matching outfits with your kids isn’t just cute—it can help build family bonds, regardless of your children’s ages. If it makes you all happy and connected, go for it. Another big reality check is about screen time. Sometimes, you just hit your limit, and letting kids have screen time lets you recharge and approach parenting with more patience and less frustration. It’s not about giving in; it’s about balancing your emotional well-being with theirs. I’ve also realized that while being a mom is a huge part of my identity, I am still my own person. Having my own life experiences, hobbies, and goals helps me avoid living vicariously through my children or forcing them into things I want. This approach brings a spark back into parenting—one where joy and authenticity truly shine. Life as a mom means accepting that we all make mistakes like buyer’s remorse or feeling guilty about not spending enough quality time out and about because it can feel exhausting. But prioritizing peace and balance—like choosing peaceful moments at home over stressful outings—benefits the whole family. I cherish little hacks like using gift cards when I can because making wise financial decisions also contributes to my confidence and peace of mind. And yes, sometimes you need to say no to the ‘roommate phase’ and be intentional about your relationship and personal growth, because overcoming challenges together in parenting is a constant process. Ultimately, sharing these honest experiences and exposing some of the lies about what motherhood “should” look like helps break mental chains for others. My story and testimony might not solve everything, but if it helps even one person feel less alone and more empowered to find their unique spark, then it’s worth it. Motherhood is tough, messy, and beautiful—all at once, and that’s the real truth worth embracing.
