In today’s episode, I’m talking about the many different roles of a mom. She’s a full time cook and cleaner, she’s a teacher and a tutor, she’s a psychologist, she’s a nutritionist, she’s an office manager, a coach, a shuttle driver, a daycare teacher - and that's not even putting a dent in the longgg list. And, even though she isn't doing all these things at the same time, she has to have the ability to switch between all these roles, or jobs, faster than a toddler can scream “MOMMYYYY!”
Now, we all know that being a mom is the most rewarding job - but it’s damn exhausting! And your value as a mom, and your time itself, is worth SO much. Let’s not forget about the time spent stressing about things going wrong, or staying up all night worrying about everything, making sure everything is perfect all the time. Just to ensure that our children are getting the help that they need. It can be overwhelming to say the least!
On top of all of that, the truth is, that is all time you can't get back. That’s time spent not doing things that bring you joy, or spending quality, stress-free time with your kids. Now, if you read this and thought, "whoa, that's me!", then today’s episode is for you! I’m giving you my perspective on realizing the true value of your time, and sharing how I learned the importance of delegating things that weren't honouring my time well. Because, at the end of the day, spending time with your child, forming memories with them and bonding with them - that's where your value lies. That's where you can't even put a price on the value of your time. And, if it just so happens that reading is something you love spending your valuable time on, head over to the blog to read my thoughts there too :) (www.mylittleeater.com/valueoftime)
