Very often, our closest relatives or friends, struggle to relate to the challenges that moms’ face in these days – at times all one needed was a listening and sympathetic ear, and to not get shrugged off with comparison to what life was like back then. I can honestly say that the maternity support circle has provided me a safe space to speak out and feel heard, not only as a mom but also as a woman. To remember to be intentional about requesting help when it is needed, and to not feel guilty for requesting the help. I can truly say that it was through the support circle that I have built up the courage to set certain work and life boundaries in place which positively affected me both pre- and post- baby.
