How do you do it all as a busy working mom? I don’t do it all. I have villages far and near that support me. I do it with my community…Working moms need community!
My family. My friends. My church family, women’s ministry, small groups. My fitness family. My amazing cleaning service. My bad a$$ entrepreneur friends. With my Savior as my anchor.
My favorite bible verse is…
I can do all things through Christ who Strengthens me. Philippians 4:13
You can’t do it all by yourself, mama! We all need help.
Working Moms Need Community
Have you wondered how other working moms do it all? Ever been asked, how you do it all? Are you struggling to do it all?
Me too! Same here, mama!
I wondered how working moms “balance” it all.
Yes, I have been asked how I do it all and have struggled immensely trying to do it all.
I tried doing it all by myself and almost broke. Well, I broke. But out of that brokenness, I found myself. I discovered who I am and who I want to be. And, I learned the power of community…
There is Power In Having Community
The power of having a village. And let me tell you, I’m discovering the power of community more each day, especially these last 15 months of the pandemic. I wouldn’t be here without my village.
Working moms, you need Community. You need a village or villages in order to have it all and do it all!
But, first, you need to pause and reconnect with yourself in order to find out who you are in this season of life and who you want and need to be…not only for your sake but also for everyone’s sake that depends on you.
When you take time and pause, you will be able to start learning what you need to do in order to become that person.
So mama, take some time to pause and discover yourself in order for you to show up as your best self for everyone you love, support and serve.
That’s how you do it all. And have it all. A career that fulfills you, a family, and a life where you’re rocking it as a working mom. With your Village. Your Tribe. Your community!
You can have it all with your village, your tribe, your community.
