For moms who are home with kids, we’re often working all day without seeing tangible results. Sometimes the demands of our daily schedule can leave us feeling undervalued and exhausted. While being a mother is the best job in the world, many of us end up experiencing “mom burnout”. Within this struggle, however, lies an opportunity for transformation and empowerment.
Going Against Society’s Value System
Many of us were not raised to be stay-at-home moms, yet followed our hearts (or our wallets) here. We were taught the value of being career-women and not the importance of maternal responsibilities. Choosing this path can sometimes leave us feeling unfulfilled, undervalued, and experiencing mom burnout.
WFH Business to the Rescue
To address these issues, starting a business or side gig can be the perfect solution. Beyond financial gain, they can offer a pathway to rediscovering our value and purpose. They provide an opportunity to showcase our skills and talents, reaffirming our worth as confident women and mothers. The fulfillment of working can actually help to reduce mom burnout, even though we are taking on more. Reevaluating our schedules is also a crucial step.
We Have Each Other’s Backs
Beginning a new business journey can be difficult. Particularly during the start-up phase, which can be full of setbacks and self-doubt. It’s important to choose a business you won’t get bored of, and if you need to pivot, that’s ok! It’s during these moments of uncertainty that our community shines brightest. By supporting each other, we can overcome the challenges and help each other’s new “mom jobs” succeed.
Together, we have the power to redefine what motherhood looks like and combat mom burnout. At Fly Moms, we work together in our journey toward fulfillment and success. We leave reviews, share with friends, make purchases, and subscribe to your newsletter! Even just visiting each other’s websites to drive traffic is helpful. When we work as a team, we give moms, who so rarely have advantages, a leg up on the competition. We’re in it together.
