Me reciting my 2026 motto like I’m calm, regulated, and totally in my ‘unbothered’ era
…even though I’ve already mentally prepared for every possible worst-case scenario before 9am 😅
Because being an anxious mum doesn’t look like falling apart all the time…
It looks like overthinking everything
Planning for things that haven’t happened
And saying ‘I’m just being prepared’
You tell yourself this is the year you’ll feel calmer, more present, less on edge…
But your mind is still scanning for what could go wrong, because that’s what it learned to do to keep you safe
Here’s the part most people don’t say:
You can know you’re safe… and your body can still feel like you’re not… that’s your subconscious running an old pattern
The good news?
Those patterns can be rewired. You don’t have to keep living in constant “what if” mode 🤱🏽🧑🧒
