Ep 33 - You Can Love Your Kids and Still Miss the Old You

Episode Summary:

Brianna and Tamika get real about how easy it is to lose yourself in motherhood—and how to reclaim your identity without the guilt. 👯‍♀️

👶 Mom groups and playdates can start to feel like your whole world revolves around your kids (and only your kids)
 🛑 Setting boundaries with your kids is everything—you're their parent, not their therapist
 💭 That guilt for needing alone time? Totally normal… but totally unnecessary. You can love your babies and crave space
🕰️ Bedtime routines and clear “grown-up time” = a lifesaver for your sanity (and your relationship)
💬 Regular check-ins with your partner help avoid that slow build of resentment
⏰ Waking up a little earlier or staying up a little later can give you those precious moments of YOU time
✨ You were a full, fabulous person before kids—and you still are now
🧘‍♀️ Taking breaks, recharging, and doing you makes you a better parent—not a selfish one
