Consistent Effort Brings Results
The fact of the matter is that you don't magically improve when your circumstances change. It takes conscience effort to become who you want to be and achieve what you want to accomplish. Rather than telling myself that I will do these things someday, I need to look at how I can do what I want/need to do TODAY. There is time to become who I want to become. I can take small actions daily, which will eventually yield big results over time! What is something you can do today to get you closer to the person you want to become? Let's cheer each other on!

You Are Not Alone
After I had my second baby, I was really struggling. The stresses of life and the exhaustion of a newborn and preschooler were overwhelming. Adding to that, I was the most overweight I've been in my life. I started having body image issues. I didn't recognize my body or even my mind. I felt so alone.
I saw all these beautiful mom and baby pictures on social media. People would say that they were so in love with their babies right from the start. They seemed so happy. They seemed to have clean houses, fit bodies, happy children, and organized lives. I felt like I was the only one barely keeping it together.
And then a friend posted about her own struggle post partum. She was open and honest. Her willingness to be open and vulnerable changed everything for me. I finally felt seen and heard. I no longer felt crazy. I knew I wasn't alone. My spirits were lifted.
I vowed then to openly share about my own life in the hopes that through my voice, others can feel seen, heard, and uplifted. Whether you are seeing the success you want or if you feel like you're barely surviving, know that you are not alone. We are all connected. Who is someone you can reach out to and lift up today?
