“Make your happiness and personal growth a priority in your life. The more you take care of yourself, the more you can take care of others.”

I’ve been really trying to focus on my own personal happiness lately. As a parent you sacrifice a lot of yourself and your time to your kids. I struggled for a long time trying to find balance between my needs and my kids needs. I kind of lost who I was for a little bit, and put those things that used to make me happy on the back burner (not saying my kids don’t make me happy). I’ve started to realize that the best thing I can do for my kids is be the best version of myself, which ultimately meant letting myself spend more time on me. Whether it be more girls nights out, going for a run or to a spin class or just simply going to the grocery store kid free.... I needed to designate more time for myself. .

Mom guilt has always kicked into overdrive for me when it came to spending time apart from my kids. Even up to this day I’ve never spent more then a day away from them. However, ever since starting to focus on me it’s amazing how good for my soul a clear head, and just some good old fashion me time can be. .
.
So to all my fellow mamas out there, that let their mom guilt get the best of them: you are not alone mama, but just remember you are only human, and you need to take care of yourself too. But most importantly you DESERVE a little slice of happiness that is just yours. .
