Having crucial conversations is a skill. Get good at having conversations that aren’t always comfortable. 
About motherhood. 
Money. 
Health. 
Aging. 
Identity. 
Race. 
Politics. 

The s**t we inherit, the s**t we question, and the s**t we have enough information to stop pretending we don’t see. (HELLO?! … this is just DIET AGE OF AQUARIUS stuff, btw)

I don’t need my friends (or family, or colleagues, or clients for that matter!) to have the same lived experience as me. I do need us to be willing to stay in the conversation, ask better questions, and examine the parts of our lives we’ve gotten used to calling “normal.”

And like the great Iyanla Vanzant once said: CALL A THING A THING. 🗣️📣📢

Anyway, this photo looks like I was saying at least three of these things to these people 😂
Which one do you think I was actually talking about?

The group chat will help you pick a stroller before you finish typing the question.

The question you keep typing and deleting? That one I want to hear.

Send this to the friend you’d actually ask.

“I just feel…off.”

Girl, same. Off comes in flavors, and every one of them gives us somewhere to start.

1.) Notice & name what’s showing up.
2.) Pick one small thing to try. Said another way: changing the sensory input 😌
3.) Then see what changed.

Save this for the next time you feel…off.

I keep seeing first-time moms ask questions in group chats that made me realize: these are “village questions”. These are the kind of questions you would ask the elders. The people around you. But, many of us don’t have that.

🤔Who did you use for overnight help?
🤔 Is this normal?
🤔 What did you do when your baby did this?
🤔 Who’s your pediatrician?
🤔 What would you do?

Sometimes your own mom isn’t available to answer. Sometimes the women who raised you are far away. Sometimes you’re deliberately making different choices than the generation before you.

As my aunt would say, “this modern life… you people are too far away from each other.”

📲So you ask the women you *do* have.

The WhatsApp group.
The Facebook group.
The mom you met twice at the playground.
The friend who had a baby six months before you.

We gotta crowdsource the elders.

SEND this to the group chat currently helping you raise your child. 🤎
