Hey there, I'm RebeccaI'm a mom. A far from perfect one because being a mom is freaking hard. I know how hard it is to go through all this stuff alone.
My list is quite long of the struggles I currently have or have had in the past. From mental health with anxiety and depression, to alcohol addiction, to teen pregnancy, to body image and weight loss, to marriage & relationship struggles...lots of not fun stuff. But our struggles are pretty common things yet we feel so alone and so dark because nobody talks about it. When I started talking about the struggles, I was SHOCKED at how many messages I received from other mom's saying they go through the same thing. Not only having the support through the struggles, but just engaging in adultness and FUN! I love to have fun and be weird, but I've struggled to find that connection and place of belonging. I'd go to local mom group meet ups, I would chat with a random mom at the park and ask for her number, I went out of my comfort zone a lot, it's never been for a lack of effort. Then I joined a network marketing business, which was amazing, the community was exactly what I needed. But it's all centered around a business, I want every mom to have the opportunity to be apart of an amazing community to thrive as your best self! That is how MOMunity was born. |
