As moms we learn how to juggle several tasks at a time, like cleaning the house while doing some cardio and talking on the phone. Or, one of my favourites, breastfeeding in the carrier while hanging clothes to dry! It seems like there is always something on our “To Do List.” And more than often, we don’t take the opportunity to relax, or treat ourselves to some “Me Time,” which may lead to over-exhaustion, burn out and plain old crankiness. Yes, I’m guilty (Sorry, Amor)! I know that sometimes you can feel so alone, hopeless or sad because of all the go-go-go, but it’s important to know that you aren’t alone.
Moms = Community. And we’ve all been there, done that and felt some sort of way. Take that “Me Time” and treat yourself, whether it be lunch with a girlfriend, dinner with your “mom friends” without the kids or a solo coffee date.
On September 25, 2015, VancouverMom.ca, Entrepreneur Mom Now, and JellyBeen will be hosting the fourth annual Leading Moms.
