How Do I Find My Passion Again as a Mom?

Hey Mama. Let's just say it like it is: motherhood is beautiful, but whew—it's also a full-body, full-heart, full-schedule experience. Somewhere between wiping butts and managing snack schedules, your passion got placed on the back burner. And now? You’re wondering where you went.

But here's the truth: your passion isn't gone. It's just buried under responsibilities, guilt, and a whole lotta "I'll do it later."

Let’s dig it up, dust it off, and bring it back to life. This isn't about a total life makeover—it’s about remembering who you are and giving her a seat at the table again.

Step 1: Rewind to What Lit You Up Pre-Mom Life

Before diapers and carpools, what did you love doing just for YOU? Painting, journaling, dancing in the kitchen, taking random pics of flowers on your phone—yeah, that counts.

Revisit that version of yourself without judgment. You weren’t frivolous or silly—you were creative. And she’s still inside you.

Try this: Make a quick list of 3 things you used to love. No pressure to act on them yet—just remember.

Step 2: Tune In to What You're Missing

Feeling irritable? Numb? Overwhelmed but bored at the same time? That’s not laziness or bad parenting. That’s your creativity tapping on the window like, "Hey girl, let me in."

Ask yourself: What part of your life feels dry or meh? What would feel nourishing—not just productive?

Step 3: Start Stupid Simple

We are not talking about starting a business or launching an Etsy shop overnight (unless you want to). We’re talking about 10 minutes of doodling. Making earrings for fun. Journaling on the back porch while the kids watch Bluey.

Small steps, big ripple.

Set a 10-minute timer and do something creative today. Anything. Perfection not allowed.

Mama, you are not broken or boring. You’re just buried under the weight of what you carry. And your passion? She’s not lost. She’s just waiting on you to pick her back up.

You don’t need to earn creativity—you already are it.

Let’s go find you again, one creative spark at a time.
