So many mothers wonder quietly: Is it okay to still want more? In this video, we’re talking about the tension between motherhood and ambition; what it looks like to redefine success after having children. Whether you’re chasing a dream, missing your creative spark, or questioning your career, this conversation is for you. I share what my cancer diagnosis taught me about urgency, how motherhood reshaped my identity, and why you don’t need a perfect plan, just permission to begin. 🔸 Topics we cover: – Rebuilding career or creative identity after kids – Why women feel guilt about wanting more – Passion vs. purpose – Changing direction when something no longer fits – The sacredness of this season with little ones – Why it’s never too late to start something new ✨ Enjoy what you have while you have it and dare to want something more, too. 💛 Join my Tuesday group coaching call for moms in Very Good Mothers Club (only $37/month). 👉 https://www.verygoodmothersclub.com/ My favorite chocolate spread .. sort of like a healthy Nutella - https://amzn.to/3FK4kRY Martha Beck’s book “Beyond Anxiety” https://amzn.to/4kAnCbC
