This season often brings a familiar message: do more, be better, try harder. New goals. Bigger plans. A stronger version of yourself. As if who you are right now isn’t enough.

But confidence doesn’t come from constantly striving. It comes from trusting yourself where you are. From letting yourself settle instead of starting over. From choosing presence, rest, and honesty over performance.

You don’t have to earn your worth by improving yourself. You don’t have to exhaust yourself to be growing. Small, sustainable shifts build more trust than constant self-correction. Allowing yourself to be is not stagnation. It’s care.

Support is here for the version of you that’s tired of chasing “better.”

If you are more than ready to send the kids back to school, it doesn’t say anything bad about you. It says something about a sense of normalcy returning. Predictable routines support regulation for kids and for parents. After weeks of noise, disruptions, and emotional demand, that relief makes sense.

Loving your children doesn’t mean loving chaos. It doesn’t mean endless capacity or never needing quiet. It means you’re human.

So if today feels a little lighter, let it.
Get the massage.
Book the pedicure.
Sit in a quiet corner and drink your tea while it’s still hot.
Or do absolutely nothing and enjoy the silence.

You don’t have to explain the relief away or feel guilty for it. Structure helps you show up more steadily, and relief doesn’t cancel care. It makes room for it.

Two things can be true. You can love your children deeply and still need structure, quiet, and routine to feel steady.

As we reflect on 2025 at Raising Resilience, we’re overwhelmed with gratitude.

We welcomed a wonderful new therapist into our practice. We supported and learned alongside an intern. We shared our voices at conferences, on panels, and in community spaces. We showed up on the news to speak about Black maternal mental health. We taught Pilates classes centered on healing, embodiment, and care for Black mothers. We poured so much love into Nurture & Bloom, a space rooted in rest, connection, and community. This year, we were also honored to receive a mini grant that allowed us to offer free therapy sessions to members of our community—removing barriers and meeting women where they were.

This year was about women supporting women, and being supported in return. We built meaningful relationships, expanded our nonprofit board, and raised funds to directly support our community. We were held up by loved ones, collaborators, and supporters who believed in this work and in us, even on the hard days.

We also held space for over 1,600 sessions of support. Over 1,600 moments of listening, holding, reflecting, and walking alongside women through their journeys. That number represents trust, vulnerability, and care, and we do not take that lightly.

Every opportunity, every connection, every conversation reminded us why this work matters. We are deeply thankful for where we’ve been, who we’ve met, and what we’ve been able to build together.

As we look ahead, we’re excited to continue showing up for our community, deepening relationships, and creating even more spaces rooted in care, dignity, and connection.

Thank you for being part of this journey. We can’t wait to keep growing together. 🫶🏾

With gratitude,
Tiffany & Whitney

Social media makes change look simple. Clean routines. Big goals. Fresh starts that seem easy to pull off if you’re “doing it right.”

But real life doesn’t work that way, especially for mothers. Real change has to fit your capacity, your responsibilities, and the season you’re actually in. What sounds good online isn’t always realistic offline.

Small changes matter because they’re honest. One boundary. One habit. One conversation. One place where you stop carrying everything alone. Progress doesn’t have to be dramatic to be meaningful.

You’re allowed to detach from the pressure to keep up and define growth based on your real life, not someone else’s timeline.

If you’re trying to make changes that actually stick, support can help.

If you’re laying in the bed recovering from the holiday hustle, mentally calculating how you’re supposed to clean the whole house, wash all the clothes, and “start fresh” by January 1st… please stop.

January comes with a lot of pressure to reset, start over, and become someone new. For many mothers, that pressure shows up as urgency, comparison, and the feeling that you’re already behind before the year even begins.

You don’t need a new version of yourself to move forward. You can want change and still honor where you are. Growth doesn’t require urgency, perfection, or a clean slate. It starts with honesty, capacity, and support that fits your real life.

If the new year feels heavier than hopeful, you’re not alone. You’re allowed to take your time.

Wishing you a peaceful holiday season from us.
However this time of year looks for you, we hope it includes moments of rest, connection, and care that feel real and supportive.

Thank you for being here with us, for trusting us, and for being part of this community. We’re holding space for you through every season of motherhood and beyond.

Happy Holidays 🤎

12/24/2025

As the holidays peak, the pressure to do more can feel loud.
To make it meaningful. To make it special. To make it look a certain way.

For some families, that pressure is layered with grief, exhaustion, or the weight of missing someone. For others, it’s the quiet expectation to keep everything moving, joyful, and together even when capacity is low.

If you feel the urge to push yourself today, pause and remember this:
You don’t have to earn meaning by doing more.
Presence can be enough.
Rest can be enough.
Letting the day be what it is can be enough.

However this season meets you, you’re allowed to move through it gently. Support is here when you need it. Use the link in our bio to start. 🤎

Winter break has a way of bringing up a lot at once. More time together. Fewer routines. Work that doesn’t pause. A quiet pressure to make things feel special, meaningful, or “magical.”

This is your reminder that connection doesn’t require doing more.
Presence doesn’t have to look intentional or planned.
And magic doesn’t have to be grand to matter.

Simple moments count. Shared space counts. Adjusting expectations counts.
You get to decide what works for your family in this season, even if it looks different than what you imagined or what others are doing.

If this time feels heavier, slower, or more complicated than expected, you’re not alone. Support is here when you need it.

As winter break begins, there’s no rush to make this season look a certain way.
No need to have a plan.
No pressure to feel excited, rested, or fully present all at once.

Today can simply be a transition.
A moment to notice the shift.
To move a little slower.
To let the break arrive before deciding what it needs to be.

You don’t have to maximize this time.
You don’t have to make meaning yet.
Just arriving is enough.

Are y’all dressing y’all’s kids up as the Grinch this week?

Spirit weeks, themed days, extra requests stack up fast, especially this time of year.

If you’re choosing not to do some of it and still feeling a little bit of guilt, you’re not alone.
Guilt often shows up when expectations are loud and capacity is quiet.

Doing less doesn’t mean you care less.
It means you’re making choices based on what you can realistically hold.

If this season already feels full, it’s okay to opt out of the extras and trust that what you’re giving is enough.

You’re not failing.
You’re responding to real life.

12/15/2025

The holidays can bring joy, but they can also bring weight. Many mothers are navigating grief, overwhelm, limited support, and the pressure to hold everything together while trying to stay present for their families.

Mothering without a mother. Managing school breaks while still working. Feeling responsible for the traditions, the planning, the mood, the magic. Wanting rest but feeling like you can’t slow down without disappointing someone.

If this season feels heavier than usual, you’re not the only one. Your feelings make sense, and you deserve support that honors the load you’re carrying.

Support in motherhood should feel shared, steady, and intentional.

Not something you’re left to carry alone. So many moms are navigating the mental load, emotional labor, and daily overwhelm without the kind of support that actually meets their needs.

As you name what you need and communicate it clearly, pay attention to who shows up with consistency, follow-through, and care. Real support feels balanced. It feels safe. And it allows you to breathe instead of tightening up.

If you’re trying to build healthier support systems, let go of one-sided relationships, or learn how to receive care without guilt, therapy can help you make that shift.
