When we become mums, we often lose a bit of ourselves.
Our worlds revolve around our kids and this never changes. No matter how old they are, regardless of whether they are in nappies or in high school, we put them first.
What this means is, we often dismiss our own accomplishments in our day-to-day lives. We often don’t celebrate the little things that we do for our families. The special touches we add to our kids’ lunch boxes. The cute way we display our children’s artwork. The clever hacks we use to keep our kids organised in the morning.
But, you know what? We really should. We want to celebrate you and all the awesomeness that goes on behind closed doors and help bring you back into the spotlight, even if it’s just for a brief moment.
Here’s your chance to showcase your talents, share your stories and inspire countless mums with our Share With Us segment.
