Mental health: I’m a Mom of 3 girls who are little tornadoes (ok not so much my youngest), I’m a Mom of two Fur babies, I work part time for AHS and I run Strong Girls twice a week which includes prepping, do all the shopping, most of the cooking, all the cleaning, plus head to CrossFit any chance I get (this in non negotiable for me). This is just my story, so many other parents are just as busy I know!

I was feeling like I was failing at my housework, it was overwhelming and was creating me stress, anger and resentment to my family.

I always tell my girls there are times in our life when we need to call in professionals like maybe a psychologist, a plumber, a hair dresser etc. you get the idea.

In this case I was feeling like I was drowning and could never get on top of everything. I was annoyed at this impossible standard I have set for myself. I had to call I some professionals. As a woman and a Mom who is just “supposed” to handle it, I couldn’t any more! I had to feel those feelings of failing or whatever crazy standard I held myself up to (why do we hold ourselves to these standards??). As a Mom of girls I also think it’s important for them to see me ask for help!

So, in my women supporting women ideology it’s important you know of this company My Friend Anna Cleaning, I am basking in the glory of a clean house, my stress level is way down and my constant “list” has shrunk considerably.

I am giving myself permission that at this time in my life I need help, I can’t do it all, my mental health was suffering. More women need to do this I believe ❤️.

Jasmine and Aliyah, may you live forever in paradise in each other’s arms. You deserved a full life, and not cut short.

Domestic violence is an issue not discussed enough. As an advocate for mental health, empowerment and physical health for young girls, this is a issue that won’t go away unless we talk more about it and shine light on violence against women and girls.

Here’s the thing DV is not a cut and dry issue, here’s some facts about DV…and this is just the bare minimum of what it is.

-Lots of DV victims have no idea they’re living in a DV situation until they receive help or education.

-Lots of DV victims won’t come forward for years because it’s full of shame, guilt, stigma, embarrassment, feeling alone.

-DV victims need love and support, full of empathy, never ever “SHOULD” all over a DV victim. They know how wrong it feels, and it’s much more complicated then “she should just leave”

-if you suspect you or a loved one is in a DV situation learn as much as you can about the cycle of abuse.

-it comes in many forms which makes it confusing, not just physical abuse. This includes but also involves so much more; verbal abuse, emotional abuse, put downs, breaking things and/or punching things to intimidate, financial abuse, control, jealousy, gas lighting, use of your vulnerabilities against you.

-The first 90 days a DV victims leaves the situation is the most dangerous.

-DV victims who have suffered years of abuse will say they love their abuser and will worry about their well being. They will feel pulled back, and in most cases go back because of trauma bonding.

- There is help through the YWCA Canada

Thank you Nancy Hixt - Crime Beat for bringing light to violence against women, the more we talk about it the more education available and the less stigma and shame victims will feel.

Rest in paradise you two beautiful souls, and may we learn from your story so we can help other women and children who suffer violence against them.
