Becoming the Mother I Always Needed

Growing up, I often wished for a mom who truly listened, hugged a little tighter, and made me feel seen. Now, as a mother myself, I strive every day to be that person for my own children. I’m learning to give them the patience, understanding, and unconditional love I longed for as a child. It’s not always easy—sometimes old patterns try to sneak in—but I remind myself that I have the power to break cycles and create a new legacy. Every bedtime story, every gentle word, is a step toward being the mom I always needed. Are you also trying to be the parent you wished you had?
