Thriving in Motherhood: Regaining Your Joy and Self-Care

I woke up one day and realized that I had quite literally lost everything that made me who I am in the daily hardships of motherhood. It wasn’t that I didn’t love being a mother, but in the midst of taking care of everyone else, I stopped taking care of myself. When I stopped taking care of myself I started to fall into a deep trap of loneliness, self-neglect, co-dependency, overwhelm, and toxic thinking.

It took a lot of self-awareness for me to be able to realize that this is where I was at, but when I did, the change started to happen. I made the decision to stop living in survival mode and start living a joyful, harmonious life with my kids and husband. It started with looking into my nervous system and kept going from there. Now I am not only thriving in motherhood, I’m thriving in life. Truly, life is so much more wonderful than I ever even thought possible.

I know there are so many moms who get stuck where I was stuck, but I also know that there are so many who moms who don’t want to stay there. I’m here to help you find your groove in motherhood again by sharing everything I’ve learned and done that has helped me and my family. I absolutely love that I get to share my journey with you. Let’s glow up together!

I’m Jenna.
