My Greatest Accomplisment

After a catastrophic business failure and a panic attack that lasted over 72 hours, my perception on life changed. My perception on motherhood changed. I realised that my “go-hard-or-go-home”, people pleasing, perfectionism had been thrusted upon my 7-year-old son. My son was holding my hand and comforting me when I was taken to emergency at 3am when I suffered a severe panic attack. He will never unsee that. It is without doubt my biggest regret.
Today our lives are different. Through the rituals of self-love and acceptance, by leading a holistic healthy lifestyle with my family, I embrace motherhood and all its unique experiences that it has to offer. But most importantly, I embrace my son, in all his faults and glories. I find solace in his quirkiness and his hate on pollution and his love for animals and our environment. I love that we can do boxing training together and we can talk about femininity and masculinity and how he is accepting and caring to people of all walks of life.
He is without doubt my greatest accomplishment.
