The Brave Art of Motherhood: Fight Fear, Gain Confidence, and Find Yourself Again QUOTES

1 " In order to change, you need to stop fearing the change but instead fear the results of NOT trying to change. What happens if you don't jump? What happens if you stay where you are right now? Isn't the greatest risk the risk of doing nothing?
Exist or risk. Dream or do.
Fear not changing, and you will change your life. "

When he saw me his face lit up the room.

Don't ever forget the power of simply being their mom. "

She stumbles, but stands up.

She worries, but gives.

She loves.

She mothers. "
