Positive affirmations fail most of the time because they seem like lies to the majority of us.

If you have little to no self confidence then all the positive affirmations in the world will sound like a pack of lies.

If you can do the work, find a way to explore and understand what's happened to make you believe those truths around your value then you can lay new foundations that will have you feeling confident, believing in yourself and knowing you are worthy.

The first steps of coaching with me work on this very thing for you. I want to see you fkn thriving in motherhood, knowing your worth, believing in yourself.

Drop a 🧡 in the comments so we can get you believing and knowing that those positive affirmations are so damn true, that you could tattoo one on forehead and not a single person in this world would question it. 😏

I don't believe in the story we're all told, that the feeling of mum-guilt is just part of the deal. That the unnecessary guilt that mothers are wracked with on a daily basis is fine just as it is. That's not ok.

Here's what I know, the definition of guilt is "that state of one who has done something wrong; blameworthiness; a feeling of responsibility for wrongdoing."

And what I see with my clients, friends, family and in myself is that we're all doing our best, winging our way through life and parenthood.

So where does mum guilt come from and why?
🧡It's all the tension we feel from all the decisions we make

🧡It comes up when we're comparing ourselves and start judging ourselves and our choices against someone else's standards and expectations

🧡It's that absolute b*itch of an inner critic focusing on our perceived wrong decisions and mistakes

🧡It's taking on the feelings of others as our own

So what what now? Well experience tells me this is the thread that starts the unraveling of this long held belief. When we call this out for what it is, complete and utter bullsh!t, we start to notice it more and can make the changes and shifts needed to live a sweet mum-guilt free life ✨🙌

Coaching one on one with me shares with you a system, a model, a routine, that guides you to a more joyful life 🧡 Hit the 📨 to book in.

Zoning out on your phone for hours o? If you're feeling frazzled and pulled and you don't have the energy to get what you need or move away from the stressor, so you disassociate by diving into your phone or laptop.

Finding loud noise stressful - When you're in stress mode, your body struggles to filter what noise is threatening, and what isn't, so you can feel hypersensitive to every noise, call of your name, the kids playing (and fighting).

Feeling irritated when friends reach out - let's be honest, keeping up with friendships and relationships can feel like another thing to add to the list when you're feeling overloaded and stretched across too many jobs.

Your brain is so full you can't switch off and rest - When you're overwhelmed, you have an increased level of stress hormone, keeping you feeling switched on and vigilant, ready to fight, flight or freeze. We need to feel safe in order to rest well.

Struggling to make small decisions like meal planning and deciding what to wear- When we're overwhelmed, the stress chemicals in our brains impact decision-making it harder to make decide.

I find it helpful understanding the little signals for when I'm overwhelmed, its so easy to overlook, especially when I'm overwhelmed and stressed. The things that would get my inner mean mumma berating me now prompt self-compassion, kindness and care. F*ckn game changer! 🔥

From the minute you woke up today, the day wasn't your own.

Not even waking up was on your terms - baby took that from you.

Breakfast was demanded by the toddler.

The morning race began: teeth, hair, dress, shoes.

There is wet washing in the machine on its 2nd cycle and 3 tubs of laundry piled high to put away.

Breakfast and last night's dinner and yesterday's lunchboxes

are spread over on the kitchen bench.

The floor could do with a vacuum too.

OVERSTIMULATED.

Do this:

PAUSE. It's that simple. Check in with yourself.

What does checking in look and sound like?

It's asking, why I feel this way right now?

Are there some imposed or assumed expectations I'm holding onto?

Is there an inner critic shaming me about the mess or the lack of care, or presence?

Is it because it feels like I don't have control?

Is it actually chaos and resetting the space around me would help reset my headspace?

It's helpful because it gives me enough space to decide what to do next, to come back to living right now.

I remember so clearly watching other mums at the park when I first had Libby feeling like an imposter, because I didn't have clue what I was doing. I watched everyone and saw perfection from the way they moved around and interacted as women through to how they mothered. Does this imposter feeling ever happen to you?

Instagram lures us in with the highlights reels of everyone's lives and depending on our energy levels, our resilience, where our headspace is at that moment decides whether or not we have that capacity and ability to remind ourselves of the fact that everyone is living a life full of highs and lows and we hardly ever document and share the lows.

This is why resilience building, mindfulness and reflection is such a big part of what I support women with, the tools I give you and it's why I'll talk about it til the day I damn well die. Because it changes your whole damn life and the way you look at life, yourself and your kids and partner. It's simple and f*cking powerful.

I want you to have the confidence and ability to know perfection doesn't give you happiness and joy in motherhood and life. And I want to be the one to support you to taking ownership of your beautiful imperfect Queendom 👑

I'm calling it out so we can all make a conscious effort to change our habits and beliefs around martyrdom and self sacrifice in motherhood. None of it is real. No one is handing out awards or giving us the pat on our back for killing ourselves to be perfect and always doing.

Which AWARD has called you out on your own bulls**t? Mine is slides three, four and five! 😏

Are you ready to leave the mum guilt behind and never look back?

Think about how different your day would be if you dropped your child at daycare and on your way out the door as you waved to your little one was just excitement to start your day and see them later. ✨

Think about the lightness in your gut as you walk out the door while your partner is running the dinner - bath - bed show and you're going for dinner with your girlfriends. ✨

If you're ready to tell the mum guilt to F * * * right off then reply below with READY and I'll DM you with the steps to get it done. ❤️‍🔥

Let's not ruin each other and ourselves with the judgement and bullsh*t toxic positivity that we are not allowed to find mothering, parenting, learning on the job, all encompassing transition from life before baby to life after baby hard.

I know that the way we live is set up for us to feel alone, judged, overstimulated, over worked and under supported. Pulled in every direction and like what we feel and want does not matter.

If you want to find a new way of living, that changes your way of responding to situations, less triggered, less reactive, less hard on yourself, leaving martyrdom at the door, less resentment and guilt, I want you to reach out to me. It all starts with a simple thought. One conversation. Drop a 💚 in the comments to find out how you can get more of this ☝🏽

I’ve been exactly where you are…
There’s a reason AND it’s not your fault.
You USED to feel in control. You USED to know how to get sh*t done. You USED to feel accomplished at the end of your day.

Keeping up with the day-to-day; being a ‘good mum’ as well as a ‘successful woman’. IT’S A LOT.

You’re sick of always feeling a mess and/or losing it at your partner and your babies. This isn't the type of mum you thought you were going to be.

You’re tired of juggling it all, never feeling 100% there for your kids, partner, job, and I won’t even get started on being able to see your friends.

But, what if I told you, there is another way? And I know just what you need to get you loving your life, feeling like you're a bad bish 😜 who knows how to get everything she ever wanted out of motherhood, career, friendship and relationship. And you don't need to sell your soul to get it.
