Many parts of motherhood become so common that they start to feel normal. Constant exhaustion, living on edge, carrying everything in your head, and feeling disconnected from yourself are often brushed off as “just part of it.”

Common experiences still deserve care. Familiar patterns can still be heavy. What shows up often does not have to become your standard for how life feels.

Mental health support helps you pause, take these small but persistent experiences seriously, and imagine something steadier for yourself. Support exists so that coping is not the only option and survival is not the goal.

If any of this feels familiar, you are allowed to seek support.
Resources and care are available through the link in our bio.

We are so deeply grateful for the women and the community who continue to support us and show up for this work, so that we can keep showing up for our communities and for Black mothers.

Thank you + for awarding us a grant to support our non-profit that will allow us to continue to do the work that prioritizes the mental health and well-being of Black mothers and their families.

Being in a space that centered women, honored our experiences, and uplifted women-led work is one of a kind and that’s exactly what you’ve created with DSLB Galentine’s. A space to remind us why we do this work even when it’s not easy, and encourage us to keep going, to keep building, and to keep being who we are.

Thank you! ❤️

Your body, your brain, your sleep, your identity, and your responsibilities change when you become a mother. So it makes sense that our mental health might need care in ways that feel new or unfamiliar.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, on edge, or disconnected, it means you’re adjusting to a role that keeps evolving, in a world that doesn’t slow down to make room for that change. Not that you’re failing at motherhood.

At Raising Resilience, our work is about making sure mothers—especially Black mothers—have access to mental health support and education that reminds them they’re not alone and they’re not failing.

Support and resources are available whenever you’re ready.

Happy Valentine’s Day.

For us, today isn’t only about romance or grand gestures. It’s about the quieter kinds of love that sustain mothers every day. The love it takes to keep showing up. The love it takes to set boundaries. The love it takes to ask for support, rest when needed, and care for yourself in a world that often asks for more than it gives.

Supporting mothers means honoring all the ways love shows up beyond flowers and cards, through steadiness, compassion, community, and care. It means recognizing that love can be practical, imperfect, and deeply meaningful.

If today brings joy, we hope you savor it.
If today feels complicated, you’re not alone in that either.

Love doesn’t have to look one way to matter.

Support and resources for mothers are always available through the link in our bio.

When love feels quiet, it can be easy to question it. Especially while scrolling past highlight reels of big gestures, trips, surprises, and “perfect” moments.

But loud love online isn’t the full story.
And quiet love offline isn’t a failure.

Real relationships move through seasons. Some are expressive and expansive. Others are steady, practical, and focused on getting through the day together. Both can be real. Both can matter.

If comparison starts to creep in, it can help to pause and ask: What does connection actually look like in my life right now? Not what it’s supposed to look like. Not what it looks like for someone else.

And if that question feels heavy or confusing, support can help you sort through it, without pressure to perform love a certain way.

Love doesn’t only live in romantic relationships.
For many mothers, it shows up in shared space, mutual care, and being understood without having to explain everything.

Community love looks like being seen.
Being held in seasons when individual capacity is low.
Being reminded that you don’t have to do everything alone.
Support is here whenever you need it. Link in bio.

A lot of us are waiting for a version of ourselves that feels finished.
More put together. More confident. More like who we think we’re supposed to be.

But life keeps moving. We keep changing. And that feeling of finally “arriving” doesn’t really stick.

If loving yourself is something you’re postponing until you feel better, look better, do better, or get it together… you’re not alone. Many of us were taught that self-love comes after improvement. This is just an invitation to notice that pattern, not fix it all at once.

If this feels familiar, support doesn’t have to wait until you feel finished.
We’re here to support you in the season you’re in.

A lot of mothers talk about feeling unfamiliar to themselves.
In their bodies.
In their energy.
In how they work, focus, or move through the day.

That unfamiliarity isn’t random. It comes from real changes like lack of sleep, kids getting sick, school closures, shifting priorities, and carrying more than before.

When so much feels different, loving yourself can feel complicated. Sometimes the work isn’t fixing it or pushing through. It’s acknowledging that this season asks for something different than what you’ve known before.

Self-love gets talked about like it’s the cure for everything.
The fix for burnout. The answer to hard relationships. The way through every tough season.

But real life doesn’t work like that.

Self-love doesn’t protect us from hard days or complicated feelings. It doesn’t mean confidence all the time, or moving through life unbothered. And it definitely doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong when it doesn’t feel good.

Especially in February, when we’re surrounded by messages about romantic love and “loving yourself better,” it’s easy to feel like you’re missing something.

You’re not failing at self-love because it doesn’t feel soft or inspiring.
You’re practicing it by being honest about what you need.

And that’s enough.

If you’re still figuring out what self-love looks like in real life, support and resources are available through the link in our bio.

This work is about more than the moment we’re in.

When Black mothers are supported now, it shapes the wellness of their children and the generations that follow.

History isn’t only what we survived, it’s what we choose to build, protect, and care for today.

If you’re looking for care, community, or ways to support this work, it starts here. Link in bio.

Black History Month often invites reflection on the past.
This work is about the present.

The Raising Resilience Therapy Fund helps support access to therapy, programs, and community care for Black mothers and families.

This fund exists to reduce barriers to care and to sustain work that is already happening. Not as a moment, but as ongoing support.

If you’ve been looking for a clear way to support care for Black families, this is one option.

Details and ways to learn more are in the link in our bio.
