This was really good! I honestly didn’t prepare much financially and business wise and these took a hit during my pregnancy and currently postpartum! However what I am glad I did was prepare emotionally! I was seeing a therapist to ensure I’m getting ready because I learnt that that is one area you can’t ever delegate! And it truly affects your child and the adult they become. Ensuring I know myself so I don’t feel like I don’t know myself once the baby arrived. Recognizing the triggers that may come up because of how differently my son would be treated by my family, especially my parents compared to how they treated me growing up. I’m so glad I ironed out a lot of things emotionally. I had some tough conversations with my parents regarding my own traumas so I don’t pass them on to my son. There was just a huge level of awareness that I grew and I’m forever grateful! Now planning my second child, I tell you I am more focused on the business and finances side. Thanks Erin for always sharing your authentic self with us!
This was really good! Sending love for a safe delivery. You got this & you’re already doing great! 🙏🏾 Advice: be present & rest as much as you can. Do what works for you and your baby. 🤍
