First Time Moms in their 40's
Even when things are planned, and settled in your head. Why does motherhood feel so overwhelming?
You've got the career, the wisdom, maybe even the financial stability. But this tiny human doesn't care about your professional title or your ability to close deals. When you feel like the oldest one during daycare drop-off, it stings more than you expected.
The hidden struggles:
-
Your body recovers differently than younger moms
-
Friends' kids are teenagers while you're starting over
-
Everyone has opinions about your "geriatric pregnancy" and how you should have started sooner
What you might be thinking:
-
"I should be able to manage this on my own"
-
"Did I wait too long?"
-
"Why is this harder than running a team?"
​
What you really want: To trust that your life experience is actually an asset. To stop comparing your motherhood journey to anyone else's. To feel confident in the mom you're becoming.
I get the unique challenges and how to embrace the small but very big wins of this path.
