I advise on the boards of billion dollar healthcare brands

I advise on the boards of billion dollar healthcare brands

but I've been neglecting myself

I've been on so many weekend adventures with my 7 month old

but my roots are so overgrown it's turning into a balayage

I sent some of the biggest proposals of my life the last 2 weeks

but I'm 51kg, my unhealthiest weight ever

For someone who works in healthcare, and very high up, I must add

I've not been taking very good care of my health

I mean - having a 7 month old baby, multiple businesses and international trips isn't your standard cookie-cutter parenthood

Add on only having 1 week of maternity leave and a slow burning out of your sanity and you get where I am today

I'm okay (I promise!)

I'm still happy. More fulfilled than I've ever been. Living a life I once could only ever dream of

but life still get sin the way. a hair appointment gets missed, I stop exercising because I'm too busy with my son, I choose sleep over journalling or getting up early

I'm working on it. I'm actually doing my own (much lighter) version of 75 hard that starts today. And I tell you what IM LOVING IT

daily journalling. waking up at 7:30am. 4 chapters of bible + a surplus of calories

You guys know I'll never hide behind a social media screen of happiness and success

So... this is me. Right now, on the journey of (hopefully) becoming sane again after having a baby

I wish more people just said the damn truth online. I'm struggling with things. You're probably struggling with things. EVERYONE IS STRUGGLING WITH THINGS!

Stop using social media to belittle and compare yourself. Because likelihood is, those who share only happy things and look the most fulfilled, are most likely the ones struggling the most in reality

I got this. You got this. We got this - whatever your current struggle is 💙
