Why Playing With Your Kids Is Boring
Have you ever wondered if there’s mums out there who love being around their kids 24/7?
Mums that lavish in hours and hours of play time and never need time for themselves?
Can we all agree that unicorns don’t really exist?
I regularly hear from mums who feel incredibly guilty that they don’t love playing with their kids for long periods of time.
How to Manage Parenting and PMS
Have you ever wondered why some days it’s so much harder to parent than others?
Have you ever found yourself snapping at your children like you’re having a weird out of body experience?
Last week I posted on my Instagram that I was struggling with my toddler.
I couldn’t work out if she was in a bad mood that day or if it was my PMS looming.
What to Do When You’re In A Slump
Do you feel like you should have an endless supply of energy?
No matter the season, or your workload, or your number of kids, do you always want to feel energetic and able to do everything on your to do list?
You’re not alone.
Are You Tired Of Saying “I Have To”?
On a typical day in your life, how often do you use the phrase “I have to”?
“I have to do the groceries.”
“I have to go to this work meeting.”
“I have to work out.”
How To Feel Like You Have Plenty Of Time
I can’t even count how many times people said to me, “You think you’re busy now — well, wait until the baby comes.”
This felt like a pretty negative, fear-inducing statement to make to a pregnant woman, but I’m sure they were coming from the same place of indoctrination.
Once I had my daughter, I certainly understood what those well-meaning people meant. Much of my day was spent feeding her, changing nappies and trying to convince her to sleep. But I can also say I spent more time reading books and playing games on my phone (hello Cooking Craze!) than I probably ever had in my life. I began to wonder if I had more free time than I thought.
