Self-Care Days are Long and the Years are Short

Published on: 14th January, 2024

Have you heard the phrase the days are long and the years are short? It applies to motherhood in so many ways. The years seem to fly by and before we know it our babies are walking, talking, taking their own steps...yet in lonely self-care moments we can feel that the days drag forever and bedtime a lifetime away. Listen in as Jill and Linda chat about:

  • Seasons and phases that we are going through and longer days that can create a conflict in routine.
  • Milestones for our children including cooking and doing it solo in aspects of life we didn't think possible.
  • Food struggles and juggles (actually we talk about mealtimes and food a lot in this episode!)
  • Listen in for strategies that make our lives easier.
  • How fast the years have gone and what we have planned for our self-care in 2024.

We would love to hear from you, it always encourages us to know you are listening along!

About the Podcast

Mucked Up My Self-Care Podcast
Real, Raw and Unedited Conversations From Two Global Moms/Mums
A podcast for moms about the real, raw, and unscripted perspectives of guilt-free self-care by two moms across the globe. This unedited podcast is real life and their personal experiences told in friendly conversation style. Advocating for all moms who have mucked up their self care.

There are so many others out there that aren't successfully solving the real problem of trying to figure out what self-care is. We want to bring to light the reality of what self-care can look like for moms who struggle to fit it in, don't know what will work for them, and the ways that it hasn't worked. We want to have conversations about the guilt we feel when we are pressured to mother ourselves when we don't know how and aren't given the support to in our society today.
