Leaving Bali in just a few hours.✈️ I had so much anxiety about going on this trip, mom guilt is a real thing! The thought of leaving Zain for two weeks so I could travel made me feel like I was doing something wrong. Ever since I left treatment my main focus has been on bettering my life, getting involved in recovery, working hard, getting an education, being a dedicated mother. There have been times over the last few years where I have put myself in tears wondering who I am, losing myself in the busy, second guessing if I even have friends, wondering what I have to offer, and really only seeing myself as a mother. Although I love being a mother and love that part of my identity, that’s not ALL I am. I am also someone who is passionate about adventure, someone who likes to meet new people and talk about world events, someone who is strong and independent that loves doing things alone. I’m so grateful I gave myself a chance to travel, to step away for a moment. I miss my boy and I’m ready to be home just in time for Mother’s Day🌸 but this was the most amazing experience ever and I can definitely see myself back in Southeast Asia, maybe with Zain next time. 👩👦🗺
