Personally, I love getting small insights into people's daily lives. I don't have any regrets about the early months I spent with my littles and the way I snuck work and writing into the margins. I know you will find a balance that is right for you and your family. I hope you enjoy this time with your precious little one. : )

Balance truly is the key and at the end of the day, you are the only one who can define what that looks like for you. Congrats on your journey as a mother!

Hello dear Carina, don't worry about what other people are thinking about you and your work. Doing and creating what you are truly passionate about in the right here and now is how you not only build authenticity and respect for your work, but also maintain that creative spark no matter what you are going through. Let your life be your muse. If you would like to see that successfully in play in another new mama chef's life, follow Alison Roman's content since her baby boy was born. It's beautifully real and so beautifully raw and tender. Never do anything you don't believe in doing, and let God take care of the rest, advice I should follow more myself.

Motherhood is certainly a transformational and identity-shifting experience which takes a long while to acclimate to! The tension and doubts are totally normal. :) You’ll figure it out — give yourself lots of grace!
