Hey Mama!!
A few weeks ago, a sweet mama reached out and asked me some questions about mom rage. At the very end she asked... why can’t I stop?!
This question got me thinking… why is it so hard to STOP mom rage from popping up.
Even though I’ve been healing for a year and a half… sometimes mom rage finds a way to sneak back in.
I ended up recording an entire podcast episode, which you can listen to here:
I believe that there are several things that can keep us STUCK in mom rage.
It’s important to identify what’s going on for you in this season… sometimes this alone will help you to find freedom.
But, today… I want to share some encouragement for the moms who feel like they are trapped in mom rage.
Mom Rage doesn’t define you.
It’s not who you are… and there surely isn’t anything wrong with you.
My guess is that you are in a tough season and your needs are falling through the cracks.
It’s not that you want to ignore your needs.. but they seem insignificant in comparison to everything that feels important.
Maybe you are even proud of the fact that you are so selfless and constantly giving every last ounce of your energy to everyone else.
BUT THIS NEEDS TO STOP.
The more depleted we become… the easier it is to fall into rage.
Our children need us to care about our OWN needs.
Because on the other side we will become the Calm, Patient, and Understanding mother they are so desperately needing.
It’s a new week…. a new day… a new minute… and even a new second.
You get to make changes and try again.. right here… right now.
It’s NEVER TOO LATE.
I repeat…. it is never too late.
With that being said, I hope you are feeling encouraged and ready to tackle the week ahead… Happy Parenting ❤️
