You are CHOOSING to be a Martyr to motherhood

If you’re a mom who’s feeling overwhelmed and trapped by the expectations society places on us, then this pep talk is for you. Today, we’re tackling the concept of being a martyr to motherhood.
For a long time, I bought into the narrative that motherhood meant sacrificing everything, constantly looking disheveled, and never getting a moment for myself. But here’s the truth: this doesn’t have to be your reality.
I used to believe that motherhood had to be chaotic and that I had no control. I resented the idea that my life had to be a mess just because I was a mom. But one day, I decided to take control and change my circumstances. Remember, what is available to one is available to all.
If you find yourself feeling like a victim because you can’t take a shower before noon or enjoy a hot meal, it’s time to look inward. It’s about choosing how we respond to life’s challenges. Stop giving away your power and start creating the life you want.
I’ve been there, feeling overwhelmed and frustrated, projecting my emotions onto my kids and snapping at everyone around me. But I’ve learned that we can change our habits and behaviors. We can set boundaries, seek support, and create a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Motherhood is full of paradoxes, but we can navigate it by taking small steps towards change. If you’re tired of feeling like a martyr, it’s time to take control, stand in your power, and show up for yourself and your family. Tune in to this episode and let’s start this journey together.
