WHY WE STARTED THE MODERN MAMAS CLUB AND WHY YOU NEED TO BE THERE

CATEGORY: MODERN MAMAS CLUB

Remember all those things we said we’d do or not do as parents? 


  • No screen time on weekdays.
  • Dessert once a week.
  • And definitely no sleeping in our bed.


Before I had kids, I was convinced parenting was going to be easy (I know, I can hear you laughing.) But, I just kept thinking, “I’m a pediatrician! I
know ALL the things!”


Yeeeeeah.  As you can imagine, that’s not exactly how it turned out.


From the moment I became a mom, my world was different. Shockingly so. I had this brand new baby whom I loved with everything inside of me. And I had a job that I
really loved too. I loved saying yes to every commitment that came my way, but I felt like every yes was a bright red NO I was saying to my family.


I was living in a constant state of feeling
conflicted.


When I was heavily needed at work, I was still equally needed at home. I felt guilty at work. I felt guilty at home. I was perpetually feeling like I was doing everything, but doing nothing well.


A few years ago, after a really exhausting day at work, I came home to my daughter in the middle of a huge tantrum and I could not deal anymore. So, I went and did what any normal mom does…


I had a long cry in the shower (if you’ve never shower cried, I’m telling you, they’re ridiculously therapeutic.) 


I knew there had to be a different way to do life that didn’t pull me in 80 different directions at once. And leave me feeling guilty no matter which choice I made.


Through trial and error, I figured out how I could still be an incredible mom to my kids while at the same time being “all-in” at my job. And that’s how Modern Mamas Club got started: I wanted to teach women just like you how to live life, not just surviving from day to day, but actually thriving! In your work life, your parent life, your YOU life.


Modern Mamas Club is a safe, supportive space for like-minded Modern Mamas who dream of having it all, to help them actually achieve that dream, and lift up other Mamas to succeed as well. 


This is where we’ll learn to go from conflicted to centered. Which is a BIG deal. It's a lot of unlearning. All while having the support of other women who are trying to do the exact same thing, which is incredibly powerful.
