Thank you Jessica! I struggle with a lot as a mom. While writing more, I just realized my mental health issues are not unique at all. Many moms have these issues because of the upbringing they received as a child. Sharing tips I gathered to overcome my issues will hopefully help many moms who are in “survive” mode. Hopefully it will help to at least inspire thoughts in this area for them.

I think you are absolutely right about how children are watching us and we need to set the right example. There’s a ripple effect that happens when they see us “happy”, “light” and “loving ourselves”.
