Most of you know my husband and I own a massage studio and my kids and I spend Tuesday - Saturday from 9:30am - 8:00pm on most days here, so when I talk about busy I know busy, when I talk about setting priorities I know priorities, when I say I just want to order fast food it's real, when I say I've learned to say no to things and I've gained a new perspective on well simply wasting time. When I say put your husband first and everything else falls into place I mean it.
Just over a year ago I was the stay at home mom of 3 with the coffee pot always hot, the house super clean and having playdates and daily adventures, nap time & my workouts at 2pm.
News Flash!!! I'm not that mom anymore!!! That mom was always thinking of her dreams, her future for helping others through a wellness center and as I sit here I can say honestly I can't afford to be that old mom and guess what that's ok, that wasn't the real me, it was someone I thought I was supposed to be.
I never thought I'd be a "working" mom but not only do I work, I run 2 business, homeschool my kids and still do everything for our household and the difference is I know there is a time to chill with coffee in hand or a family day and I know when it's time to work. Balance...there is no such thing in my world but there is such joy doing what I do as mom, wife and boss I get to share so much with others, everyday, it's diffetebt yes, but it's our different.
If I got stuck comparing our household and daily activities to other's around us it would lead to problems, so as I was cooking today I thought of this and yes some have said I focus on me and my health & fitness too much or I share everything on social media it's TMI and that's selfish, so I say in return "I'd rather be focused on me sharing the real me then trying to be someone else."
True happiness & contentment aren't hard to find when you focus on what really matters, being true to yourself.
Be you! Find your calling and live it unapologetically,
Coach Joy
