Dear Mum-Its not selfish to want more!

Mar 16, 2023

Life with kids is amazing but it can also feel very challenging and lonely at times.

For me, I have always gone back to work after having both of my babies and with my previous career as a Paediatric Nurse and working long hours it no longer served me. I wanted a career that worked around my children. With myself and my husband creating a stable income within our property business' it made no sense at all for me to go back.

Shortly after having Phoebe my third baby,  I started to feel lost and I mourned the loss of career- but it wasnt the job I missed- it was the connection, the feeling of value to others,  the social aspect- but not only that- I struggled to find personal time and lack of rest from having a baby.

For so long I felt awful and selfish for feeling this way especially for many mothers- this would be their dream- their dream to just enjoy being with their children and not having to go back to work. For so long I felt sad because why didn't my children feel enough- especially as being a mum is a full- time job. It is demanding, unpredictable, exhausting and busy.

After reflection, journaling and following other busy mumpreneurs on social media, I began to realise and feel ok with myself for wanting more and for wanting more than one purpose in life. 

Missing your career or needing to find a new purpose does not make you less grateful for what you already have, nor does it make you wish you had children or a different life. Having something else that is yours and something to look forward to is an important part of the desire to thrive.

My career as a Paediatric nurse was one that I absolutely loved and filled my heart and soul with so much joy and happiness but I knew I was meant for me. I knew for the life I wanted for my children and my family would not be possible with my nursing salary- plus the hours would not allow. Yes we have property businesses with I am very much part of but it doesn't fill my soul- its more of a vehicle to achieve the freedom to help more people. I knew I had a bigger purpose- with my passion for young children and babies, I know I can help on a much wider scale and with that comes time and money. My passion for helping orphanages, my passion for helping improve the quality of life of the young children residing in hospices, my drive for helping children that have been trafficked- all of this takes support from money and time.

After journaling, reflection and giving myself grace to actually ask myself what do I truly want in life? Who do I actually want to be? Who do I want to help? I felt guided in sharing my success in life, helping other women and mothers just like myself to find their purpose, unleash their dreams and inner power that is inside them. I am the Millionaire Mindset Coach. My purpose is to get money and wealth into good hearted women so we can change the world together.

I want you to know that you serve an AMAZING purpose as a mother and its an honour. You radiate such love and affection and nobody compares to your role as a mum. But if we are being honest, its ok to want more, its ok to have a desire for more- desires were placed on your heart for a reason- they were meant for you. Having a desire gives you passion, drive and energy to share with loved ones. 

I want you to know that you arent any less grateful or less content for wanting more. Your desire to have a purposeful life is something that also inspires your children to pursue their dreams and embrace their unlimited potential!

It is ok to want more, you are doing an amazing job, you are exactly where you need to be right now in your life. You are worthy of an amazing life, you are worthy of living out your purpose. I hear you, I love you, I have got you!
