44 // How to Still Be a Good Mom When Life is Falling Apart
It is inevitable that life will still face hard times even after becoming a mom. In fact, oftentimes those hard time are amplified because they are tied to shame and guilt for struggling when we are trying to do the best for our kids and family. While we can't avoid all bad times, we can find ways to "struggle well." I have had my fair share of hard times since becoming a mom - postpartum depression, illness, family issues, friend issues, financial strain, job stress, kid behavior issues, health issues, the list goes on and on. The last thing we want to do as moms is to take our hard times out on our kids and let our personal struggles negatively affect our family. In today's episode, I'm sharing practical tips you can do when you are facing a short-term problem (or "rut") for a day or a couple days, or a long-term problem that may not resolve for quite some time. I pray that this episode can bless you can help you through whatever hard time you may be facing.Work Life Glue Box (use code March for $5 off): https://www.worklifegluebox.com/Work Life Glue Community-Only: https://www.worklifegluebox.com/subscribe/4159470838_online-community-only?gift=False To comment on this episode, head to the Youtube video: https://youtu.be/7ewOrTY8zXI- Sensory Loose Parts Kits: https://www.etsy.com/search?q=sensory%20loose%20parts%20kits- 25 Things to do with Kids Episode: https://www.worklifeglue.com/podcast/25activities- Disco Ball: https://amzn.to/3t0CiaD
