One of the main struggles women encounter after becoming full time homemakers is a great loss in their sense of identify.
This loss of self can be painful and downright depressing to many moms, especially because as women we have been conditioned more and more for the workspace and less for the home.
Imagine working for years to attain your degree and being passionate about your career path only to give it up to be at home taking care of children all day every day.
That is the reality of many women face including myself.
Story time...
This is how I became a content creator and if you have ever been interested in starting your own content creation work I highly recommend doing so because it will give you a creative outlet and you can continue building new work skills like content writing, social media marketing, photography, and graphic design.
However, my entire youth I worked towards becoming a horseback riding instructor, so I worked hard doing manual labor, teaching lessons, running camps, and riding horses for a decade I was dedicated to this goal and completely obsessed with horses.
I wanted to be the best instructor and had huge expectations for myself and what my life would look like, however, shortly after gaining a Bachelors of Science in Equine Stable Management I welcomed my first child.
The attachment I had to her was strong enough to rewire my entire outlook on life and I put my dreams on the backburner to be and care for her.
As the years passed I found my self in a new role as a stay at home homeschool mom and even though I loved being there with her and what would later on be my second child, I felt like I had completely lost myself like all my hard work was for nothing.
The great thing about feeling lost is that it forces you to look within to discover what really matters to you in life.
I started leading a more intentional lifestyle and begin discovering who I truly am apart from my career goals.
I began filling small moments of my day with things that brought me joy like writing, learning graphic design, web content creation, gardening, keeping chickens, painting, reading, exercising, and sipping tea.
And even though I don't have all the answers I am feeling more secure in who I am alongside of being a mother.
Now don't get me wrong it is beautiful and very rewarding to be a homemaker, but it is also extremely difficult to feel like you have completely lost yourself to motherhood.
The good news is that if your at the point where you feel lost you can begin piecing back yourself to discover who you are now after becoming a mother.
Creating the Ultimate Vision Board for Moms
Visualization is a powerful tool that can help you manifest your goals and desires by leveraging the mind-body connection.

By integrating visualization into your daily routine, you create a powerful mental framework that supports your journey towards manifesting your dreams and achieving your goals.
Creating this outline for my life through the power of visualization is what allowed me to feel more connected to my true self.
It allowed me to step away from the expectation I had for my life and to begin rewriting the narrative to include unlimited opportunities of growth alongside of motherhood.
I no longer dread the feeling of being lost for it is what truly allowed me to discover myself.
