I’m nearing my 23rd week of pregnancy… and it’s official. I actually look pregnant instead of like I’m just eating a lot of pie!  😉

I hosted a FREE Q&A call a few weeks ago, and on that I call I vulnerably shared some of the old emotional baggage I’ve been carrying around about my appearance and beauty. Well, there’s nothing like a crazy changing pregnant body to bring all of that up to the surface!

I’ve actually been really grateful that this opportunity has presented itself so poignantly, simply because I know it’s really time for me to release these old thoughts, patterns, fears and beliefs once and for all. I’m letting them go not only for myself and the freedom I know is waiting for me on the other side. I’m also letting them go because I desire to be a woman and mother who loves herself, adores her body, and values her beauty no matter what.

I think my soon-to-be-son will benefit from having a mother who feels this way about herself, too!
