Wow, 2025 🐍
My goodness, what a year! The year I was gifted my biggest blessing in life, my little boy. Becoming a mother really has seen me shed every past version of myself.
The woman who entered this year is a version of myself who will never exist again. From an independent woman who focused myself on work, not realising the amount of my identity and self-acceptance came through being a business owner and supporting my clients. To birthing a beautiful bundle of joy into the world and shedding all of the ways I'd previously found acceptance, self-worth, and ways I defined myself. Overnight, shedding every part of me, I thought I knew. I thought I understood. I thought it was my identity.
From maiden to mother ✨️ of course, the shedding felt uncomfortable, but it was also beautiful. The love and joy I feel now, I've never been able to hold with such depth. This is, without doubt, the most incredible, magical, humbling, and loving version of myself.
Looking into the eyes of my little boy, I see life so differently. The things that used to define me now have no place in my mind. For the joy and love I feel, to know this little soul chose me to be his Mumma outweighs anything I've ever felt before.
What has amazed me is the ability to feel such duality of emotions all at once as a mother. The deep joy he chose me, followed by the anxiety of being enough, present enough, loving enough, etc. It really is the biggest rollercoaster in life. I will never be more thankful for this journey, version, and time in my life.
This year, I shed, I learnt, I grew, I became present, I broke open, I released, and more...
But for now, I just want to say thank you. For being alongside me in my journey, through all different versions of me. Through the years of highs, lows, and changes. Thank you for choosing to witness me, my journey, and supporting me and my family. I am deeply grateful for you all. Especially those who have witnessed me this year.
If you've made it this far, thank you. Your presence and support doesn't go unnoticed. I wish you all a year of blessings, peace, growth, love, and joy 🫶🫶🫶
