Parenting can be lonely

As I look back on my parenting journey, as a mother, there were times I felt alone. Not because I didn't have a supporting, involved partner, but because I was a motherless mother. My mother died before I had my children. Thankfully, my grandmother was still alive and well, but lived far away. And as young at heart as she was, she was still one generation away from my reality.

Luckily, there was more and more parenting information and children development ressources available to guide me along the way.

I wish, at that time, there would have been parenting coaches or facilitators, someone unbiased to guide me in my mothering journey. Maybe that's one of the motivational sources behind my mission today, to be that ressource for parents in this complex world. Regardless, what I wanted to share today was, parenting does not have to be lonely. Having someone to be a guide or sounding board can be immensely beneficial in being the mindful parent you want to be for your children.
