And I think it's something for me, I transitioned in my work to a new role at the same time that I transitioned into motherhood.
So that's been something that has taken me a lot of time to process.
And to be honest, I think I'm still processing it as I kind of rediscover my
identity now wearing a new hat as being a mum as well.
Oh, I mean, thanks.
It's honestly take every day as it comes.
I think at the start, I knew it would be an identity shift, but I didn't think I, I didn't separate my role changing and being
becoming a mum, I kind of just put them all in the same thing and now I've kind of stepped back and I'm trying to process it a bit better and I've had to separate them because they are quite different.
So I feel like maybe on the surface I look like I'm doing well, but on the inside I'm still processing.
Okay, so it has changed quite a bit.
I think obviously our bodies change postpartum.
I have these huge boobs that I've never had before.
So that's very new for me.
And the rest of my body has changed a lot.
And I think for me, in the past, I have gone through disordered eating.
And I was, even though I'd processed that and I feel like I'm in a really good place with accepting my body and like just loving it for what it does for me, especially after growing a child, I feel for me, I have like a whole new appreciation for it.
I, it has still been a journey postpartum.
And I think what I have found, I'm still rediscovering my style.
What has helped me the most is not trying to fit into any clothes from before that don't fit me.
And as soon as I try something on, it doesn't fit.
