If you’re a mother in midlife, you’re going to love this episode. Vanessa Wright is back on the podcast and she’s sharing the importance of caring for yourself, amid the chaos that is parenting and homeschooling.
And we’re not talking about bubble baths and candles- because honestly? Not everyone loves those things!
If you’re finding yourself feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and wondering what you want to do with your next chapter, this conversation is for you. (The self-care travel bag suggestion is worth its weight in GOLD, mamas!)
So pull up a chair, pop in those earbuds, and take a minute to focus on you and find your FLOW!
