When you become a mom you naturally want to be the best mom to your kids, give them the best life and everything they ever dreamed of. Don't forget about yourself and your dreams, they are equally as valid as your kids. We tend to lose our identities in motherhood and forget to do the things we loved before or don't make time for it anymore. Don't stop taking time for yourself, go hang out with your friends, chase that business idea you once had, go on dates with your significant other and take the trip to your dream destination. Show your kids what it likes to be a good intentional present parent while still living your life and making yourself genuinely happy so your kids do the same thing for themselves when they grow up and become parents themselves.

On this episode Tianna and I are discussing emotional and physical abuse. How we knew it was time to get out and tips on how to heal afterwards. Most times the abuser in a relationship starts with emotional abuse like controlling, cheating and gaslighting and it escalates from there. Physical abuse can start with punching holes in walls, throwing things at you and move on to physically harming you. Abusers will also work in cycles where they will manipulate you to stay once they have abused you and say it was an accident, they will never do it again because they love you so much and if you leave them they will kill themselves or you. Be aware of the red flags and make a plan to get out before it’s too late. You are worthy of a healthy relationship that won’t give you trauma and ptsd. If you or anyone you know is a victim of domestic violence please report it and call your local authorities when it is safe to do so.
