I was pregnant with my second in the 1st pic. (Donāt worry, doc approved & I didnāt lift more than 30 lbs). I remember these days well which is why I canāt help but walk up to glowing mommas in the gym and praise them for being there when I KNOW how tired they are. Yet, they are doing something healthy and loving for themselves and their growing baby. Once our babies are out of the womb, we continue to lead by example. I appreciate when I take on a new client thatās a mother because I know the healthy choices she makes will also influence her children and family. This post is for the moms, expecting moms, the mommas-to-be, and God mothers. You teach them how to love themselves by what you say to yourself (especially in front of them), by what you feed your body, and by the boundaries you do/donāt set. As a mother, I know how heavy this responsibility can feel. At the same time, thank goodness this power is primarily in the hands of mothers and not society. You show up for your children best when you show up for you. Take care of you momma, so your children know what self-care and self-love looks like.
