Principle #14 The Value of Self Care

In The Boss Mom Mentality, The Value of Self Care goes over being able to balance motherhood and taking care of yourself by employing self care!

“You can not give from an empty cup.”

-M.H.

I am a career woman by day, Mommy of two and wife by night, podcaster & author when all have gone to bed and in between. I notice that I can get a bit crazy, over-emotional, and stressed if things don’t go the way that I planned or, even worse, a grumpy momma to my kids. Modern Day Motherhood includes a lot of responsibilities, we have gotten busier and busier as the decades progressed.

One of which is being a side hustler. I know moms whom write books on the side of their day jobs, hustle makeup, life insurance or diet supplements, you name it, all to make a better living for themselves and their families. 

It’s a lot, I know!

The one thing I do know is to not compromise my happiness and wellbeing for anything that can wait. A lot of us strive for perfection. We have to make sure the laundry is all done, folded, pressed and put away, ensure that all the dishes are washed and dried, be sure to clean the entire house from top to bottom and the list goes on and on.

In reality, all those things can wait. The Boss Mom Mentality is nurtured through Self-Care and there is no rush to get everything completed, especially if it compromises your time to relax and woosah at the end of your day.
