In a world of inauthentic leaders who pretend to never encounter struggle or limiting beliefs, it’s imperative to never forget what it means to be human.

I was barely on my phone yesterday. It was a full day of momming on Mother’s Day.⁣
⁣
I received so many touching messages - honoring my role as Mama/Mom/Mommy.⁣
⁣
There is absolutely no way any woman can fully prepare for this transformational journey & initiation.⁣
⁣
It’s a rollercoaster unlike any other. 🎢 ⁣
⁣
I’ve experienced the highest of highs…⁣
⁣
Meeting both of my sons as they transitioned through the portal of life to greet us earth-side. ⁣
⁣
Witnessing Jax memorize the solar system when he was 2, know every dinosaur at 3, correctly using adverbs at the age of 4, & be Picasso reincarnated.⁣
⁣
Seeing Jett in his full self expression at all times, hearing him speak Spanish, watching him dance like a maniac to EDM, & experiencing his unbridled joy as he encounters the endless miracles of life.⁣
⁣
The lows have been intense…⁣
⁣
Postpartum depression, anxiety, & paranoia.⁣
⁣
Not knowing who I’d become on the other side of giving birth & trying to find myself all over again.⁣
⁣
Fear that I wasn’t doing enough for or with my boys in this potent section of time (they will never be this small again). ⁣
⁣
Inevitable mama guilt & shame.⁣
⁣
My entire life, as I knew it, being turned upside down & inside out as I navigated significant health challenges. ⁣
⁣
But it’s all been worth it. Truly.⁣
⁣
Their love for their mama is absolutely unparalleled. It cracks my heart in a beautiful way every day & my heart space just keeps getting bigger.⁣
⁣
I can’t imagine my life without these little genius monsters who I love more than anything.⁣
⁣
Raising them alongside my life partner & best friend has been such a wild ride & I’m so grateful.⁣
⁣
To all of the mamas reading this, I get you. I see you. I•▲M you.⁣
⁣
Just know that your little human(s) picked YOU for so many reasons, and you’re doing more than enough!⁣
⁣
We got this!!⁣
⁣
Happy belated Mother’s Day to every woman who is a mom in her own way!

@bradballard & I were on the verge of divorce not

@bradballard & I were on the verge of divorce not that long ago...⁣
⁣
Neither of us had been honoring each other’s love language.⁣
⁣
We were both actively collecting evidence to fuel our own narrative.⁣
⁣
Since neither of us was getting what he or I wanted, we both felt we were right & the other was wrong.⁣
⁣
As a matter of fact, consistently acknowledging each other’s love language has been one of our biggest challenges all throughout our relationship.⁣
⁣
But what’s also true is that we love each other deeply.⁣
⁣
We know we’re soulmates & also meant to be the biggest teacher for one another throughout this journey of lifelong partnership.⁣
⁣
We asked for support, both leaned into our edges, & chose to be responsible for what we’d generated individually & collectively.⁣
⁣
Little shifts started to occur. We recognized & celebrated the changes.⁣
⁣
This created compounded interest & momentum really began to pick up for us!⁣
⁣
I’m a straight shooter. Marriage is NOT easy.⁣
⁣
Anyone who pretends that their union is great ALL the time is a big, fat liar liar👖🔥 :)⁣
⁣
But a soulmate partnership is worth the rollercoaster (if you can both navigate the ups & downs in an emotionally intelligent way).⁣
⁣
The inevitable dips make the upswings & peaks exhilarating. The challenges are what build character in a union.⁣
⁣
If you’re up against your edges with your partner, lean in.⁣
⁣
Be honest & responsible.⁣
⁣
Love yourself enough to express your innermost desires. It’s not wrong to want to be loved in a certain way.⁣
⁣
Don’t be afraid to ask for support & allow your community to reflect back what’s in y’all’s blindspots.⁣
⁣
There is no need to have shame about your challenges or hide them from the world.⁣
⁣
We’ve ALL been there!⁣
⁣
I see you, and I love you. ✨🤍🪽⁣
⁣
⁣
P.S. Thank you @veranayelapa for creating such a magical space for us to deepen our love even more! And @itscassidycallan & @bradjbarnes: thank you for getting married in a mystical love vortex!

I have a STYE in my eye & I don’t know why… (new rap song about abundance - not styes 😂 is coming soon!), but I’m still enjoying my best life in paradise with my 🍯. ⁣
⁣
We took 2 delayed flights to Puerto Vallarta, drove 40 mins south to Boca de Tomatlan, & voyaged on a 20 min boat ride to Playa Isabel to finally 😅 arrive @veranayelapa. ⁣
⁣
We’re here to celebrate the union of @bradjbarnes & @itscassidycallan.⁣
⁣
We’re in absolute heaven on earth. ⁣
⁣
I didn’t realize that my soul needed to sleep in a bougie hut with no walls, on a king size bed with a mosquito net, and waking up naturally to café con leche with the ocean as our view.⁣
⁣
It’s been a full recharge so far & we haven’t even been here 24 hours yet.⁣
⁣
I’m prepping for Miss Cassidy’s bridal blessing tomorrow as she transitions from maiden to wife.⁣
⁣
It’s an honor to be holding this space for her as she embarks on her sacred journey of lifelong transformation called: marriage. 😍⁣
⁣
I’m so grateful for the blessings in my life from God/Universe/Source (aka GUS) that have allowed us to be here as our biggest Level 1 training @ascensionleadershipacademy since arriving in ATX is happening literally as I type this. 🤯⁣
⁣
Thank you thank you thank you. 🙏🏼 ⁣
⁣
Sending love to you all with a reminder to create space for as many magical experiences as possible in life. ⁣
⁣
If you don’t have the time & space to enjoy the fruits of your labor, then is it actually worth it (lyrics from my first single PERMISSION 🤩)?⁣
⁣
I love you. ✨🤍🪽⁣
⁣
P.S. If you’re curious about what the situation is with my hair, watch my stories to be in the know before they disappear!

The kiss at the end… 😍🥺😭 Secure attachment style parenting for the win! 🏆⁣

Jett has been a roaring 2 year old for about a week, and he’s way too cool 😎, but still loves his mama more than anything.⁣
⁣
I’m so grateful that he also loves Jenny (our amazing nanny!) as much as he does so I can have a balanced life.⁣
⁣
She is a godsend!! She also speaks to Jett mostly in Spanish so my little man is bilingual!⁣
⁣
I also speak to him in both English & Spanish, and I feel solid in how we’re setting him up for life. ⁣
⁣
People often ask me how I do it all, and I say: “It all gets done, because I don’t do it all. I ask for support so I can truly have it all.”⁣
⁣
There is no way I/we could have accomplished everything in my life without the support of an amazing team - including mentors - in each area:⁣
⁣
Our relationship, all of our companies/brands, childcare + early education, health/wellness/rejuvenation, & the maintenance of our home + our legacy/finances. ⁣
⁣
Understanding this was a game changer for me. Systems, strategy, and staying in all of our respective zones of genius - that’s literally how WE do it all. ⁣
⁣
You can do anything, but not everything, at least not all at once. ⁣
⁣
Send this to your favorite SuperMom who is holding space for so much! We all need this reminder!

Jett asked me to do this. How could I say no? If you’re a mom - esp. a mom of multiple boys 😅 - you 100% know “momming” is hard af. ⁣
⁣
There are countless moments where you have no idea how to make it all work. ⁣
⁣
But you do. And you do it with miraculous magic. You make it look easy to everyone else.⁣
⁣
You even have other moms wonder HowTF you do it all.⁣
⁣
It’s a tall order:⁣

⁣
This is just the baseline. Buckle up for when life ALSO throws you unexpected curveballs.⁣
⁣
But the truth is, you’ve made it through 100% of your hardest days. So you got this.⁣
⁣
All of it.⁣
⁣
You can do anything, but not everything. At least not all at once.⁣
⁣
Life is not meant to be done alone. You’re worthy of asking for support.⁣
⁣
Anything that’s destined for you will not escape you. It’s ok to go slow. ⁣
⁣
Remember that your kids will never be this small again. When you’re with them, be with them 100%. ⁣
⁣
Please know that I’m saying all of this as a reminder to myself as well.⁣
⁣
I don’t have it all mastered like a perfected art (unless I do? 🤔).⁣
⁣
Just out here doing my best (like you!) & that’s more than enough.⁣
⁣
I love you. ✨🤍✨⁣
