MOMENT | The Biggest Mistakes I've Made Growing Motherkind

Bu bölüm hakkında

There was a time when I thought slowing down meant falling behind. In this short clip, I share one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned about ambition, motherhood and burnout. After years of building Motherkind, growing my family and saying yes to everything, I realised that success means nothing if it costs your wellbeing. I chose this Moment because it’s one so many of us will recognise, that quiet fear that if we pause, everything we’ve worked for might disappear. But I’ve learned that rest doesn’t erase progress. You don’t lose momentum by slowing down; you find yourself again. This reflection is raw and real, about miscarriage, early motherhood, burnout, and how I kept going when I probably should have stopped. My hope is that it helps you feel seen, and maybe even reminds you to give yourself a little more grace in your own busy season. In this Moment, you’ll hear: Why I kept working through one of the hardest seasons of my life The truth about “having it all” and what I wish I’d done differently How fear and scarcity can disguise themselves as drive The mindset shift that finally helped me rest without guilt This Moment is a gentle reminder that your worth isn’t measured by how much you can carry, it’s in how deeply you care and how kindly you treat yourself along the way.
