Mid Year Reflection

As I have taken some time away from adding to the website, I wanted to come back and share some new goals I have set for myself. This is all based on goals that have either already been accomplished, or based on reevaluating some the goals I am currently working on.

At the beginning of the year I wanted us to begin thinking about expanding our family, but now I am 25 weeks pregnant. At the beginning of 2021 I wanted to get my podcast up and running, and now I am prepping for episode 10 of season 1. My husband and I wanted to get our finances in order while we were keeping our daughter home from daycare. And lastly, I wanted to get a grasp on my mental health, and well, I am back on prozac and getting body work done with a chiropractor.

As of today, my new goals are around completing my podcast’s first season. I did a poll on Instagram, and it has been determined that I will end my season at 12 episodes; it’s a great challenge. And while I am pregnant, my new goal is to make sure we create an environment where our children can bond and respect one another for their differences and similarities. I have a good relationship with my siblings based on respect and honesty, and I hope to support them in doing the same.

Another goal that has shifted is around my health. During the beginning of my pregnancy I became very depressed and unmotivated. Now that I am seeing a psychiatrist, I am also seeing a chiropractor. Both of these medical supports have helped me advocate for my well being and for realizing that I am worthy of care. So my goal is to stay actively taking care of myself. Part of my health is also spending time with my husband and daughter by hiking or going outdoors. That is good for his mental health, so as long as we are caring for us, we will be able to care for our relationship and family.

And my last goal is to write more on the blog, and create more ways to share my tips and tricks. Even being a newer mom, I am about to be a mom of two! So I want to share that journey in Season 2, and on the blog. My hope is to do this during maternity leave. During this time, I also hope to outline and plan Season 2 of A Rad Momma Podcast.

So with that, stay rad familia!
