every woman, deep in her heart, requires emotional and physical safety to feel truly relaxed in the journey of pregnancy and motherhood. throughout the centuries, we have conditioned ourselves to forget that we have requirements for motherhood: having a safe, dedicated, and loving partner, being materially provided for so you can rest during pregnancy and postpartum, having your emotional needs met by your partner, having your unique requirements specific to you stated and met, etc. however, in this day and age now, women have no semblance of understanding that they should have their requirements met to have a child. because of this, mothers live miserable and unfulfilling lives. furthermore, women tend to use motherhood to avoid their lives and themselves. for example, a woman might be unhappy with the level of love she has received in her life, and because of this, she decides to have a child in hopes of receiving unconditional love (manipulative & abusive); or, she might not like the dating prospects she sees or she may not actually like or love her husbands husband or partner, and so she has a child to distract herself. what women are forgetting here, and what this episode aims to remind us, is that children are a small phase of your life: they will leave, you will not be their priority, they will start their own families and have their own spouses, and you will be stuck with the same unfulfilling life and partner, right where you started. don't avoid your life through motherhood. instead, cultivate a life you are excited about and fulfilled in. and when you are ready- if you desire- when you feel safe and secure and supported, choose to be a servant of a child by serving their soul's evolution through their childhood and adolescence. anything less than this is asking for struggle motherhood, and we're not doing that anymore.xoxoVictoriaSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/victorias-thoughts/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
