Lately, I've been writing on some important topics like breastfeeding, postpartum depression, maternity deserts, and parental leave benefits. I've learned so much interviewing OB/GYNs, doulas, maternal health advocates, and moms in every stage of life. Moms, what are some important topics we should highlight next?!

"Being a parent carer is one of the hardest things; it is something you do without question. You are their parent, but most importantly, you are their advocate, and without you, they probably wouldn't get the help and support they need." Parent carers do extraordinary work every day, often behind the scenes. Their stories of resilience and advocacy are not just inspiring—they're transformational. "Beyond The Ordinary" sheds light on these incredible journeys, offering support, understanding, and community to those on similar paths. 📚 Are you ready to discover the powerful narratives that unite parent-carers worldwide? Join the waitlist for "Beyond The Ordinary—Discover the Power of Creative and Neurodiverse Women" today and be the first to access a collection of stories that celebrate strength in the face of challenges. 🔗 🔗 Join the waitlist and be part of the movement that brings these powerful stories to the forefront.

Here's to the fierce mamas navigating the school runs, the household, working or not working. My vision this year is not only being a mum to the best I can to my 3 children, but launching my coaching business and putting on monthly workshops on parental burnout to help parents in my community. Whatever your journey and vision, lets just pause to reflect and celebrate you. Happy International Women's Day to all the mothers embracing transformation and growth. You are unstoppable forces of love and evolution. 💖🌟 #InternationalWomensDay #MumLife #EmbraceChange"

Parenting is a transformative adventure that significantly influences our children's futures in various ways. For parents of daughters, promoting empowerment is a critical aspect that cannot be overlooked. Teaching them fearlessness and confidence is not just a choice but a vital component for their long-term success and well-being. Envision a world where our daughters walk with confidence, ready to take risks and challenge norms. This is the vision we aim to realise – a world where they possess unwavering self-esteem, resilience, and independence. Encourage daughters to pursue passions in various fields, nurturing their interests and empowering them to face challenges. Provide tools for self-advocacy, positive role models, and safe spaces for expression. Support girls to value their convictions, set boundaries, and navigate a world that may try to silence them. Actively empower and celebrate their uniqueness to raise confident young women unafraid to pursue aspirations and make a positive impact. Let's embark on this collective journey of empowering our girls to stand tall, speak up, and fearlessly chase their dreams. By investing in their empowerment, we are investing in a brighter, more courageous future for all. ✨✨✨✨ Follow us on Facebook - https://lnkd.in/gkrvN6w9 Facebook group - https://lnkd.in/g967uXeY #TTA #inclusivesafeplace #womensmonth #empoweredwomen #womenempowerment #raisingdaughters #empoweredchildren #womensmonth

This week is World Childless Week Today, I’m taking this opportunity to make some noise and raise awareness about the topic childless/childfree. Whether you’re childless, childless by circumstance, by choice, and proudly childfree, it’s still a huge taboo and topic that often goes unspoken. Yet, it’s a reality for so many of us. In 2020, about 1 in 6 women in the U.S. reaching the end of their childbearing years had never given birth. The numbers are similar for example in England and Wales, where 18% of women reaching age 45 in 2020 were childless, up from 10% a generation ago. These are not just numbers; these are lives, stories, and emotions that deserve to be acknowledged, seen and celebrated. In honor of World Childless Week, I've decided to jump on LinkedIn after a while and share a blog post that aligns with this global initiative dedicated to raising awareness and challenging the stigma surrounding childlessness and being childfree as well as disenfranchised grief. Together with a dear friend and colleague, we envision a day when all women—whether childless, childfree, or mothers—can gather around a fire, celebrating who we are in our essence and what we bring to this world—celebrate our unique stories and contributions. My deepest wish is for every woman on this journey to reach a place where they can truly enjoy life again and find ease. To feel their emotions, validate their grief, and know in their hearts that their worth isn’t tied to whether or not they have children. I hope they find the courage to explore the freedom of a childfree life and embrace their uniqueness. I hope they get to the place of acceptance, speak out confidently about their experiences and celebrate being childfree. There are so many different ways to put the creative potential in and so many ways to care and mother!

Dear Daughters of Tomorrow, As you step into your future, remember that no dream is too big. You will face moments of doubt—some from others, and some from within yourself. But don't let those doubts define you. Raise your hand, take the lead, and speak up for yourself and for others. Society may try to set limits on what you can do, but you are limitless. The world is changing, and you are part of that change. Keep rising, keep inspiring. With love, today's women are paving the way for you. #bookrecommendation #letterstodaughtersoftomorrow #daughters #womenempowerment
