I recently excavated the fact that a lot of my own challenges with motherhood came from me internalizing my own Mom’s conflict between her professional and family roles.

My kids are sitting at 8 & 5 now, and the more work I’ve done on myself, the more joy and pleasure I’ve gotten from motherhood.

The pain teacher comes to teach you things. If you let it, this transformation back to love can be a remarkable one.

Good luck! Oh, and don’t forget to take at least a day a week to yourself. It’ll help.
