This is such a great idea to have a space to connect, share experiences and offer support especially since we're all going through very similar situations. I'm excited to hear everyone's stories and perspectives as solo parents and how you manage everything - the ups and downs of juggling work/life balance, childcare, self-care etc.
While many of our circumstances are unique, one universal truth is that it's tough being a solo parent! It can be exhausting physically and mentally managing all the roles with little downtime, especially when you have younger kids or babies and less flexibility. I'd love to hear your go-to strategies for self-care and sanity amidst the chaos!
I'll go first and share one of mine - my 'me time' is a sacred Saturday morning routine that helps me reset and recharge. I wake up early, make myself a coffee and do some yoga followed by a leisurely 30min or so of meditation. It's my non-negotiable weekly ritual and gives me the headspace to feel grounded for the week ahead. What are your rituals or hacks that help you stay sane?
