Reclaiming Motherhood: Shattering the Myth of Self-Abandonment
They told us that real love means self-abandonment. That good mothers are the ones who lose themselves the fastest. Skip the shower. Miss the dreams. Swallow the rage. Just be grateful. But here’s the truth: You are not just a mother. You are a whole-ass universe.
You hold galaxies inside your intuition. You build entire worlds with your wisdom. Your magic didn’t vanish when your kids were born—it multiplied. This Mother’s Day, let’s burn the guilt and reclaim our power. You can be devoted and divine. Tired and powerful. You can reclaim your name, your joy, your peace—without apology.
The Weight of Guilt
I’ve walked the same path, weighed down by guilt. As a single mother, I felt guilty for working long hours and leaving my kids in daycare. I felt guilty for not being able to buy them everything they wanted for Christmas and birthdays. I put pressure on myself to give them the perfect life, but it left me overwhelmed, screaming, and yelling. My patience wore thin, and my kids remember those moments more than the sacrifices I made.
In hindsight, I realize I might have been a better parent if I had focused on giving them love and patience instead of trying to provide everything. The clean house, organized toys, and material gifts weren’t what they needed most. It was my presence, my love, and my patience that truly mattered.
The Lie of Martyrdom
The lie was that motherhood is martyrdom. But real motherhood is creation. Alchemy. Power. And you still matter in the middle of it all. You are not just a mom; you are a whole-ass universe.
  • Your intuition is like the moon, glowing bright in the darkness, guiding your way.
  • Your womb is a source of life, a symbol of feminine power and creativity.
  • Your wisdom shines like the stars, illuminating the path for yourself and others.
  • Your transformation is like the purple and green butterfly, emerging from the cocoon, beautiful and strong.
  • Your spirit is like blooming flowers, vibrant and full of life.
Reclaiming Our Power
This Mother’s Day, let’s reclaim our power, not our guilt. Let’s focus on giving our children what they truly need: love, patience, and presence. Let’s break free from the myth of self-abandonment and celebrate our strength, wisdom, and creativity as mothers. We are whole-ass universes, and we will not apologize for being ourselves.
Let’s rise up and reclaim our true selves. Let’s show our children what it means to be a powerful, loving, and whole individual. This Mother’s Day, I reclaim my power—not my guilt.
