How I Reunited with my Mama

May 16, 20253 min read

It's so easy to get caught up in the very necessary self-care that we forget that we still need other people to live a fulfilling life. After freeing myself from co-dependency prison, I tended to overcorrect by saying NO to everything, even to being a daughter, a wife, an aunt, and a friend. Yeah, I'm a bit of a rebel. So, how did I find "balance"? I didn't.

Balance is such a myth and presumes that everything will always be in perfect harmony. That's crap.

The reality is that I chose to Focus and Revisit my Vision: Leaving a Legacy that rebuilds, restores, and regenerates families and communities. But first, I needed to start with my own family. I decided to start with the thorn in my side: my relationship with my mama, a great mother who never really learned how to take care of herself first.

I have to pray for patience, grace, and wisdom DAILY in order to be a good daughter to her. During one of my times of prayer, God gave me an idea of how I could take care of myself first while helping her to remember self-care.
