Somewhere along the way, we were taught that motherhood should quiet our ambition. That wanting more meant we were ungrateful. But that isn’t true.

You can love your life and still desire expansion.

You can nurture your children and nurture your dreams.

You can be grateful and still reach for better.

I’ve been reading Discipline is Destiny by Ryan Holiday and one line stayed with me:

Greatness is not something you are born with. It is something you decide.

Not once.

But daily.

In ordinary moments.

Discipline is devotion to your becoming.

It is you choosing the woman you are growing into, even when no one is watching.

Some days you will push.

Some days you will rest.

Both are necessary.

You do not need to shrink to make others comfortable.

You do not need to apologise for wanting a beautiful life.

You are allowed to evolve.

Your children are watching how you show up for yourself.

Not just how you care for them.

Let them learn from you that growth is allowed.

That becoming is a lifelong journey.

Take a breath today and remind yourself:

I am allowed to want more, and I am capable of rising to meet it.

If you need grounding, reflection or clarity, open your journal.

Write, feel, release.

Dream. Breathe. Restore.

Have an awesome week🤍,
