Mom Guilt v. Mom Confidence: Rewriting the Narrative
Description
Feeling torn between chasing your goals and being present with your kids? You’re not alone. Today, we unpack one of the most universal struggles for modern moms—mom guilt. From navigating judgment (from others and ourselves) to redefining what it means to be a “good mom,” we share how years of trial, error, and experience have shaped our confidence as both mothers and entrepreneurs.
We explore what happens when guilt turns into growth, how to respond when your kids want more of you, and why compassion (not criticism) is the real key to peace. We also flip the script entirely—asking what would happen if we replaced “mom guilt” with “mom confidence.”
You’ll learn:
- Why mom guilt shows up (and what it’s really trying to tell you)
- How to navigate travel, work, and family time without losing yourself in the process
- The difference between self-criticism and self-compassion—and how to make the shift
- Why confidence often grows through moments of guilt and discomfort
- How to reframe your mindset to lead with intention, not obligation
