Recently I was able to practice finding rest in motherhood by holding a boundary by encouraging Lilah to stay over at her dad’s house. As we’ve entered this new norm of her staying at her dad’s house more often, I know the transition isn’t 100% easy for her, but it is a necessary one that she (and I) will be better for. This leads me into what I want to talk about today when it comes to protecting your mental health in motherhood – specifically in regards to protecting yourself against comparing yourself to other moms on the internet or in your real life, feeling like you're maybe not doing it right or like you're being judged. I know I could cover this topic on probably 100 different podcast episodes, but specifically what I want to cover today is protecting ourselves against those feelings of comparison that are so common in this day and age of social media. Listen to the full episode because I’m sharing three easy, reasonable, and actionable steps to help you work through feelings of not enoughness.
