When I put this video together, I cried.
I really want to give two months postpartum me the biggest hug.
The first year of motherhood completely rocked me. My body, my identity, my energy, everything felt unfamiliar. I tried to run. I stopped. I doubted myself. I thought maybe that version of me was gone.
And then, at 14 months postpartum, I tried again.
Not to get my old body back, but to feel something that was mine.
Looking back, I’m so proud of her. Proud of my body for carrying me through it all. Grateful for what it can do. And deeply thankful that I didn’t give up on myself.
If you’re a mom in it right now, feeling behind, discouraged, or ashamed, please be kind to yourself. Be patient with your body. Healing takes time, and your timeline is your own.
Ending this chapter stronger, softer, and more connected than I ever expected.
Happy New Year 🤍
