GreenPath Baby Blog

Welcome to "The Mom Purpose!"  Every week we meet at GreenPath Baby at Downtown at the Gardens to discuss the challenges of motherhood and how we can pair up with one another to help pull us up and out of our funk!  Whether you are a working mom struggling with time-management or a stay at home mom who just needs adult interaction this group is designed to help YOU with the challenges of being a mom.  We meet Tuesdays at 10:00am.  Here are last week's notes.

Week 1

The Struggle is Real…

As a mothers we all know a few things.  First, that nothing comes easily.  It’s all hard-but beautiful.  So beautiful.  Second, it’s all worth it in the end.  But where is the end?  It’s a journey right?  How do I equip myself to deal with all of the struggles and challenges from day-to-day?  What is my role in this part I am playing as a wife, a mother, a sister, a daughter, an employee?

 

Questions to ponder:

1. What are my dreams? What do I want to be when I “grow up”?
2. What is holding me back? Is it finances?  Time restraints?  Kids?  Lack of support?  What is my biggest hurdle at this very moment?
3. If I had a magic wand, what would I change about my life?

 

Answers to move us forward:

1. Once I’ve identified my dreams, what is ONE step I can take this week toward achieving that goal?
2. What can I do to remove or work around my biggest obstacle?
3. Start a goal journal.
