#MoreThanAMutha is all about celebrating the things that women are, as well as being amazing mothers. In a world where many women feel like they lose their identity when they become a mum, it is important to celebrate and shout that we might be mums, but we are not only that and we are still a force to be reckoned with.
What makes you more than a mother?
Are people surprised when they realise you are more than a mum? Does that bother you?
No at all, I’ve always been a multitasker so they’re not surprised at all
What challenges do you face when you’re juggling motherhood and being more than a mum?
How long did it take you to remember you were more than a mother after you had your child(ren)?
I think it has to be when I went back to work after having my second child where I had to do a full time job then come home and still do everything around the house and be with the kids.
Who, or what, helps you to make time for yourself? What do you do to escape the stresses of motherhood?
One of the perks of being divorced is that I get two weekends a month to myself and my wonderful fiancé makes sure we have fun when we are alone. We are always out and about eating and drinking! That helps a lot but I still squeeze in some work.
What advice would you offer a mum who might not be feeling like they are more than someones mum right now?
Any advice for someone who is going through the same things as you are right now in their quest to be #MoreThanAMutha?
Keep on going giiirl! You can do this
