For many years after my first child was born, I struggled with trying to find the balance between who I was before my children arrived, and being a mama.
It was as if I was a mass of contradiction -
on the one hand, I wanted nothing more than to give myself to my children, dedicated to their wellbeing and happiness.
But on the other, I craved my space, my independence, the dreams I had worked so hard to achieve.
It wasn't until years later, in my research into matrescence, that I discovered what this was -
and how normal it really is.
I call it The Inner Split.
And it explains how you can both love being a mama, and struggle with it at the same time.
