BOSS LADY: STRONG MOM & STRUGGLING MOM

Boss lady should be every lady’s motto. Whether it is a stay-at-home-mom, working mom or a working lady we are all doing our best and no one has the right to judge us, other than ourselves.
I am an aunt to three beautiful children, two boys, and one girl. My older sister has always been a boss lady. She worked as a marketing director for a few years and then quit her job to stay at home and raise her infants. She wanted both options but managing one was too much.
Seeing her care for her children was so beautiful, but also difficult. I did not realize how challenging being a mom was until I babysat two toddler boys all by myself. Let me tell you, you need A LOT of patience.
Being a working non-married woman in my late 20s, I also see moms pointing fingers at each other. Some being the victim, and some judging victims.
As a single woman, we struggle with paying our bills, finding “the one”, getting raises at our jobs, saving forwards our future and making time for our friends when work is not taking over our agendas. As a married woman, mom’s struggle with making time for her husband, date night, making sure the house is clean, doing more activities with the children, feeding the entire family three times a day (minimum), and we find it difficult to make time for ourselves. There is no such thing as a perfect mom or a perfect woman. Single, or married, we all have our struggles.
I bring this up to encourage every woman. We should embrace our current circumstances because there are other women going through things worse than us. But we should also not be quick to judge other women. So let’s encourage one another and be positive. We must uplift each other and help one another because we ALL have bad days.
“Here’s to strong women may we know them. May we be them. May we raise them.”
So cheers to every boss lady!

Bea, you couldn’t be more accurate with this post! Such a positive message. And I love that you get it as a single working woman in your 20’s. We do all have our struggles. And my struggles when I was a divorced and childless career woman in my 20’s were much different from my struggles as a mom of two young children in my 40’s…but they were all struggles and the struggles were real. This world needs lots more women like us who wish to support and empower other women rather than criticize and judge them! So thank you for sharing this message. By the way, you are rocking this boss lady look!

What a great post! I do wish more women would encourage and support one another but sadly some just want to point the finger instead. But we can certainly do it! I’m not a mother myself and I no longer work in the rat race (YAY!). For the past five years or so, I’ve been ‘working’ from home as an author, blogger and more recently a yoga teacher. I have a lot of time to myself, which I love. Things would be very different had I had kids though!!

As they say being a mom is lovely but a little challenging. I guess it depends on how you handle it. With your outfit, you really look like a boss lady.
