🤍 Women. Mothers. Leaders. What Are You Proud Of… Really?
The Quiet Strength of Women Who Lead and Love Simultaneously
This is not a loud question.
It’s a quiet one — the kind that sits in your heart.
We talk a lot about balance.
But for leaders — especially women — balance is almost impossible.
When you are at work, your mind is at home.
When you are at home, your mind is at work.
And when you travel for work, your heart is split in two.
Before every trip, there is an invisible checklist no one sees:
- Managing work so nothing falls apart while you’re gone
- Making sure everyone is okay before you leave
- Preparing your child’s clothes for every single day
- Pajamas folded, outfits planned, hair clips placed just right
- Trying to make it easier for your husband, so home still feels calm
You leave nothing to chance —
because leadership doesn’t pause,
and motherhood never turns off.
I am proud of women who carry this weight quietly.
Who pack suitcases with responsibility and love.
Who sit on planes thinking about meetings and bedtime routines.
Who lead teams during the day and hold their families in their hearts at night.
I am proud of mothers who feel guilty no matter where they are —
yet keep showing up anyway.
And leaders who never truly “clock out,”
because their hearts are always on duty.
If this sounds like you, hear this:
You are not failing at balance.
You are doing something incredibly hard.
✨ This truth deserves to be said:
“I am proud of myself —
for carrying two worlds at once
and refusing to let either fall.”
Take a moment to honor the unseen work.
The planning.
The worrying.
The loving from afar.
You are not alone in this.
You are strong in ways few people ever see.
And that —
is something to be deeply proud of. 🤍
