Becoming a mom is one of the most beautiful—and challenging—experiences a person can have. The postpartum period brings a mix of emotions, from immense love for your new baby to moments of frustration, exhaustion, and self-doubt. As a new mom, it’s essential to give yourself permission to feel all of it. Here are three reminders to help you manage this journey with more patience and self-compassion:

1. Your body is not the same—and that’s okay.
After pregnancy and childbirth, your body may feel different, and it might take time to adjust to these changes. Be kind to yourself and give your body the time it needs to heal. You don’t need to fit into anyone else’s expectations of “what you should look like” after childbirth.
2. It’s okay to not have all the answers.
Motherhood comes with a lot of uncertainty. There’s no manual for how to be a perfect mom, and you’ll find yourself learning as you go. You might not know all the answers right away, and that’s okay. No one does.
3. You don’t have to do it all.

It’s easy to get caught up in the “I should be doing more” mindset, but the truth is, you can’t do everything, and that’s perfectly fine. You don’t have to be everything to everyone. Take breaks when you need them.

Remember, new mom, this journey is full of ups and downs—and you are more than enough. Be gentle with yourself, and give yourself the grace you deserve.

As a mom, it’s easy to lose sight of who you are beyond your role as a caregiver. Between the sleepless nights, endless to-do lists, and the overwhelming responsibilities that come with raising children, your self-esteem can take a real hit. It’s not uncommon to feel like you’ve lost touch with your pre-mom self, or to feel like you’re not doing enough or not enough of the right things.

But here’s something I want you to hear loud and clear: Your worth is not defined by your ability to be a “perfect” mom or by how well you juggle all the hats you wear.

Self-esteem is about recognizing your inherent value and treating yourself with kindness and compassion. It’s about accepting that you, as a person, are worthy of love and care, even when you feel imperfect or flawed. And yes, it is possible to rebuild that confidence and sense of self—even when motherhood has changed so many aspects of your life.

If you’ve been struggling with self-doubt or feeling disconnected from the woman you were before motherhood, it's time to take action! Start by giving yourself permission to be imperfect. How do you practice self-compassion in your day-to-day life? Drop a comment below—I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Postpartum rage is so common—but rarely talked about.

It affects moms, dads, and partners who are exhausted, overstimulated, or carrying too much invisible work alone.

If you’re snapping, yelling, or feeling overwhelmed by anger, you are NOT broken.
You’re burnt out. And you deserve support, tools, and a safe space to unpack what’s underneath the rage.

It doesn’t have to be complicated. Start with small moments—maybe taking a few mindful breaths when you wake up, focusing on the sensation of the water as you wash your hands, or noticing the feel of your child’s tiny hand in yours. The key is to take a pause, be present, and embrace the moment without judgment.

If you’re feeling like you’re constantly running on empty or overwhelmed by the constant demands of parenting, mindfulness might just be the tool you need. Start small, and remember—it’s not about doing it perfectly; it’s about being present and showing yourself compassion.

Take a deep breath, and if you need support along the way, reach out. We’re here to help you build your own mindfulness practice and find peace amidst the chaos.

Resentment is one of the least talked about parts of motherhood… Yet one of the most common.

It’s a signal, not a flaw.

Therapy can help you move from resentment to resilience.

Infertility doesn’t just affect your body — it affects your heart, your communication, and your connection.

Even the strongest relationships can feel strained when you’re navigating appointments, hormones, grief, and uncertainty. One partner may want to talk, the other may shut down. You might find yourselves coping in completely different ways.

This post dives into how fertility struggles can quietly reshape a relationship — and more importantly, what helps you stay close through it all.

💛 Learn about emotional cycles couples experience
💛 Understand how stress shows up differently for each partner

Let’s face it—postpartum is tough. You’re both adjusting to new roles, sleepless nights, and navigating the massive changes that come with bringing a new life into your home. It’s no surprise that many couples experience strain in their relationship during this time.

There are moments of joy and love, but there are also moments of frustration, exhaustion, and emotional distance. The pressure to balance everything—being a good partner, a good parent, and finding space for yourself—can feel impossible.

If your relationship feels strained, it doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you’re going through one of the most challenging transitions in life. Take a deep breath, and remember these key things:

🤝 Compassion: You’re both dealing with a lot. Be kind to each other.
📅 Quality time: Even if it’s brief, time together without distractions can help reconnect you.
🗣 Communicate: It’s easy to become isolated. Checking in with each other emotionally can help avoid resentment.

If things feel especially difficult, it’s okay to reach out for support. It’s normal to need help during such a huge transition.

I have one photo of myself from 2016. I mean, I’m in others, but with little arms and legs around me. This is the only one on my camera role that I am in solo. This moment was a big one for me, and not in the way you’d think.

I was in my 3rd year of fighting an unknown illness that had left me almost fully bed-ridden with 3 children under 5 for the better part of a year. I believed my children would grow up without a mother. The days were incredibly dark. While I still didn’t know what was happening to my body at this time, I had been feeling well enough for 6 months to build strength, and became the strongest I had ever been (mentally and physically).

While things deteriorated again for a couple of years after this photo, it’s such a good reminder to me of how much capacity and resilience we still have, even when our minds and bodies tell us otherwise.

To 2016 me, there’s so much to come ❤️

PMADs aren’t a reflection of your parenting skills or your love for your child. They’re caused by a combination of hormonal, physical, and emotional factors—and they can be treated with the right support.

Signs you might need support:
🌸 Feeling persistently overwhelmed, sad, or on edge.
🌸 Difficulty sleeping, even when you’re exhausted.
🌸 Loss of interest in things you used to enjoy.
🌸 Feeling guilty or ashamed for struggling.
You deserve to feel heard, supported, and cared for during this season of your life.
