Being a mom, and specifically a stay-at-home-mom had been my life goal/ dream/ aspiration. I was drowning in negative thoughts that destroyed my ability to enjoy my role as a SAHM and felt hopelessly discouraged in my good goals. Why were these good goals of mine SO HARD!?7 years later, after many listening to many inspired podcasts, books and help from mentors, I have overcome SO many limiting beliefs holding me back from reaching my goals. Here are just a few milestones I have reached: I have lost 45 pounds 2x. I have found thought tools to make VERY difficult pregnancies better.I have found DEEP joy in being a stay at home mom. I have SINCERELY enjoyed homeschooling my kids without feeling resentful or jealous.And in this journey I. Found. Me. I found Joslyn. ALL of this progress in my personal improvement and motherhood began with a THOUGHT and re-directing and training my thoughts.
