It was huge.
So I guess just to paint the picture, we'd had school holidays, I'd had sick kids, we were in harvest, and I mentally was not going very well.
And I'd had a history of a couple of periods of sort of breakdowns in the past.
So...
How I didn't kind of know that I would be headed for burnout at some point now makes me wonder.
But I guess at the time, you don't know.
So you're in the middle of it.
No.
And when you haven't, you know, you've never experienced what it's like to have these little humans.
And so the black hole, I think, was a combination of
Burnout, mental illness, and not coping, really, not coping.
And the huge identity shift of feeling lost and confused and lacking in confidence.
I'd gotten to a point where this confident sort of career, ambitious woman...
I had stopped running my business.
I thought that all I needed and wanted was to be a mum and to be back on the land in our farm business.
And honestly, and genuinely, I thought I would be feeling fulfilled with that, but I ultimately wasn't.
And I sort of had given up all the things that I needed for my own sense of fulfillment in other areas of life.
So
Yeah, gosh, it was a big learning curve and it was the breakdown that became the turning point for me in learning about myself and about motherhood and about everything that's come between then and now in personal development and self-alignment, understanding who I am and what I went through.
And it's ultimately what led to me, became the catalyst for my work and supporting mums.
