For your consideration: there’s no “bouncing back”

I shared on Instagram that I’ve been feeling really resistant to the idea of “bouncing back” or “going back” to the way things were before baby. I want to grow as a person and feel forward momentum. And the response from this community was strong — you all agree!

This might just be a small shift in language, but the next time you think about “getting back on track” with something, invite yourself to step forward. Move forward. Go onward! See how that feels.

Want to gain forward momentum after a big change? Try these four ideas…

Here are four things you can try to get that feeling of forward momentum… after a baby or any other big change in your life.

Give yourself permission to suck and for things to not be perfect.
Take your time and expand your deadlines.
Notice what feels good. Lean into it. Take care of yourself.
Ask your intuition for guidance, especially with small decisions.
