Awakening as a Mother: Breaking the Cycle While Raising the Next Generation
Apr 06, 2025
There was a moment I looked at my kids and thought—
They deserve better than my pain.
They deserve a mother who’s present, free, whole… not one carrying the unspoken weight of generations before her.
And that was the moment I knew—the trauma stops with me.
The Awakening That Came Through Motherhood
Awakening didn’t arrive gently.
It came like a wave while I was already treading water—sleep-deprived, holding everyone else’s emotions, navigating marriage, motherhood, work… life.
But underneath the burnout was this knowing:
This isn’t just about me. It’s about them.
I didn’t want to unconsciously project my trauma onto my kids.
I didn’t want them to grow up watching me numb, people-please, or self-abandon.
I wanted them to witness what it actually looks like to come home to yourself.
Burnout Was My Wake-Up Call
I was the one holding space for everyone—except myself.
I thought being a “good mom” meant sacrificing everything.
But the truth?
Our children don’t need a perfect mother. They need a present one. A whole one. A healing one.
I had to redefine what strength looked like.
Strength became:
-
Crying when I needed to cry
-
Saying “no” without apology
-
Resting without guilt
-
Asking for help
-
Letting my children see me transform
Motherhood Is the Most Spiritual Portal I’ve Ever Walked Through
There is no awakening quite like the one that comes through raising little humans.
They mirror your wounds.
They push your buttons.
They awaken everything you’ve buried.
And they offer you the chance to choose again.
How to Awaken While Raising Kids (Without Losing Yourself)
1. Stop Hiding Your Healing
Let them see you do the work. Let them see you cry, regulate, repair, and rise. This isn’t weakness—it’s the transmission they’ll carry forever.
2. Break the Myth That You Have to Do It All
Let “good enough” be the new gold standard. Your presence is more important than perfection.
3. Redefine What Legacy Really Means
Legacy isn’t money or titles. It’s the energy you pass down. When you choose to heal, your kids inherit your wholeness, not your wounds.
4. Get in the Habit of Asking: “What Do I Need Right Now?”
Because you matter too. The more regulated you are, the safer your home becomes—for everyone.
5. Let Your Children Be Witnesses to Your Becoming
Show them what’s possible when you never stop believing in yourself.
Let them see your awakening as part of their story.
This Work Is Bigger Than Just You
When you say, “the cycle ends with me,”
you are answering prayers your ancestors whispered in the dark.
You’re healing forwards and backwards.
You’re giving your children what many women before you never had:
a mother who chose to rise.
