Growing Pains

Its hard to know why we go through difficult times in our life and what we are suppose to learn from the experience.

However, when you are longer in that moment, you can reflect and think about the lessons learnt. Going through hard times is what I call "Growing Pains".

We are women, as mothers, need to keep growing in every area of our life, especially with regard to our spirit. We often shy away from opportunities that seem to hard, too confrontational or too risky. BUT if you take the leap of faith and grab the opportunity, you will experience some growing pains with a huge reward on the other side.

I remember how hard it was for me to go through therapy after Kye's birth. It was confrontational, emotional, hard work and just exhausting! But now on reflection, I know that was the most important moment of my life for myself thus far. I cleaned out all the scares and learnt how to take one step infront of another to move ahead in life. The reward was my sanity and becoming a better, not bitter, person.

If an opportunity knocks on your door that asks you to step outside your comfort zone, I dare you to take the leap. Dont worry if you are scared, we all are! Just know that you are putting pieces of yourself back together and the journey is so much more rewarding than the destination.

To have growing pains means you are living your life to the fullest!
