Journaling Exercise

Take some time to reflect on these questions to reconnect with yourself:

How am I feeling right now? Write honestly about your emotions, both positive and negative.
What do I need? Identify your personal needs beyond your role as a parent.
What is missing in my life? Explore areas of your life you feel disconnected from or that you want to reintroduce.
What part of my old self do I miss the most? Reflect on the hobbies, passions, or personality traits you feel have faded since becoming a parent.

This exercise can help you start the journey of rediscovering yourself while embracing your role as a parent.
