Motherhood can be one of the most beautiful and fulfilling experiences in life—but it can also be easy to lose touch with the woman you were before becoming a mom.

So how do you start finding yourself in motherhood again?

In this episode of the Average Glow Podcast, I'm sharing my DREAM method for reconnecting with yourself, rediscovering what makes you happy, and remembering that motherhood doesn't mean you have to stop dreaming about the woman and life you want to become.

✨ D — DEFINE HER
Take some time to define the woman you want to be beyond your role as a mom. Who are you becoming? What does she value? What does she want for her life?

🧠 R — REFRAME YOUR MINDSET
Challenge the beliefs that motherhood has created around what you're "allowed" to want, do, or prioritize. You don't have to feel guilty for wanting more for yourself.

🚫 E — ELIMINATE EXCUSES
It's easy to tell yourself you don't have the time, money, energy, or freedom to pursue the things you want. This is about identifying those excuses and finding ways to start anyway.

🌸 A — ALONE TIME
Spend intentional time by yourself to rediscover what makes you happy outside of motherhood. Your interests, hobbies, friendships, passions, and personality still matter.

✨ M — MOMMY MAKEOVER
Sometimes getting your spark back starts with doing something that makes you feel like YOU again. This isn't about changing yourself because you aren't enough—it's about reconnecting with the version of yourself that may have gotten buried underneath the responsibilities of motherhood.

And most importantly, I want you to dream BIGGER than you ever imagined for your life! You don't have to choose between being a great mom and building a life that fulfills you.

💛 You can be both.

💬 What part of the DREAM method do you need most right now?

Tell me in the comments—and if you're a mom who has ever felt like you've lost touch with yourself, I would love to hear what helped you find your spark again.
