So I resigned from my job about a month ago but, I technically stopped working at the end of January and went on mental leave.. It has not been the smoothest process especially at the very beginning. As a parent you are torn between guilt of providing financially and trying to avoid a complete mental burn out.. Not to mention, I empathize with the burden that my husband will have to endure as I know he will feel the slack. However, I’ve learned the best option for me will always be to choose avoiding mental burn out because I know the when that frustration builds up: I get sick, I get mean, I get negative, and everything is overwhelming. So, at this point, it’s best to silence the noise even if the decision seems as if it will cause destruction ( 9/10 it won’t because what does not positively serve/benefit you will ultimately destroy you slowly anyway. So get out of whatever it is while you still have the strength to choose peace for yourself, otherwise you become conditioned, stagnated, unmotivated, uninspired the list can go on. And today and only today I was able to sit with that guilt of the financial decision of leaving my work place because I was able to sit and get a glimpse of the light at the end of the tunnel. MY CHILDREN! I am honored to have this moment with them, witnessing every milestone, witnessing everything that I have instilled in them. My 10 year old has become more confident, my 4 year old has all his basic learning down for kindergarten, and my 1 year old is potty trained. I DID THAT!!!! I HAVE BEEN PRESENT FOR THESE MOMENTS! I HAVE BEEN ENGAGED AND ACTIVE IN LEARNING THEM MORE! SIDEBAR: I would like to add my job was not a toxic workplace my managers were actually very supportive and helpful but, trying to jungle a job that required my attention for 8 hours in (WFH) call center setting while needing to simultaneously still provide attention to my children was A HEAVY LOAD! (Note: my circumstances and location play a lot in the resources that could have been taken advantage of but, I choose to be responsible for my kids, so daycare was not an option nor was a babysitter )

Hi Mama’s Starting this community really had my adrenaline going, so much so I forgot to introduce myself. HI, My name is Montana and I am a wife and mom of 3. (Two boys and a girl who’s definitely been here before lol) I’ve created this community sort of just to be of service to any mother no matter what phase of motherhood you are in to either :help you decided, get some insight on specific topics from a mothers point of view, sharing resources, sharing tips from breastfeeding to doing your child’s hair to self improvement, etc. As mothers we wear many capes and that’s exactly how I have my free courses set up for you to view at your discretion. We tend to be the CEO’s of the home but we also have to fill in for the other positions that keep everything afloat. YIKES! So this is your place to UNRAVEL! 🤗 WELCOME 🤗 Please feel free to introduce yourself -Name -How many kids you have -Fun fact -Zodiac Sign (optional I just know that’s always fine to know) - 1 extreme sport you want to try

Hey Mama Bears, Currently under the weather, seem to have caught some sort of bug. Question: How do you manage to care for you when the kiddos still need you?

Hey Momma Bears, Has anyone developed a routine regimen when getting their day started.. This morning I failed dramatically because the whole house woke up late. But, I typically like to start with Godly meditation and stillness , then I do a 15 min work out(going to be upping this to 30 mins in 2 days wish me luck lol) . What’s your go to regimen toward getting a positive day started? Do you tend to feel flustered if the routine is broken?

As a mom who wears all capes, how do you prioritize YOU in the mist of taking care of everyone and everything else?
