Mama Chronicles- Michelle’s Story

Prologue: The Unheard Melody

In the heart of the bustling city of Atlanta, amidst the relentless hum of life-saving machines and the constant rhythm of hurried footsteps, there existed a nurse named Michelle.

For 10 years, she had been a silent guardian of the local hospital, dedicating her days and nights to the well-being of others. With a tender touch and a compassionate heart, she had soothed the pain of countless patients, bringing solace to those in need.

As she gave smiles and laughter to everyone else, within her was sadness and even resentment.

Yet, as she navigated the halls of medicine, Michelle carried within her a secret. A melody that had long remained unheard. It was a song of dreams deferred, a passion held at bay.

Deep within her soul, amidst the beeping monitors & sterile white walls, there was a yearning, a longing to share her secret. Her music.

Music, like a flickering candle in the dark, had always been her peace. The soothing notes of gospel and the soulful tunes that whispered in her heart were her constant thoughts.

But she had chosen a different path, one paved with the certainty of a nursing career, to provide stability and security for herself & those she loved.

Now, as Michelle approached her 38th birthday, a crossroads loomed ahead. A quiet rebellion stirred within her, challenging the status quo. The steady pulse of her unfulfilled dreams quickened, urging her…

You've Got This

In life, we have to learn to change our attitudes and perspectives. When you want something different, you have to do something different.

A simple change in mindset can positively impact your perspective, attitude, dreams, and ideas, and doing this will create the environment for you to move towards living in your gift; Your gift which is a part of your destiny and purpose.

You move as you need to move as life happens and as opportunities happen. Spend more time living in the moment than working to see what you can't see and change what you can't change.

It’s always better to dream, attempt, fall, and try again than it is to dream, discredit your dreams, and never attempt, and fail because you never tried.

Remember this,

Challenges are inevitable, but in no way does that equate to an inability to achieve what you are working towards.

Until next time, color your thoughts...beautiful 😘

Trusting God's Timing What tends to happen when you're waiting for something? Do you get inpatient? You may feel like you're stuck in a holding pattern. Sometimes you feel like you're on the sidelines, watching everyone else's lives move forward while yours is stuck in neutral or even worse, feeling like you're in reverse. And it can be really hard to figure out how to cope with that feeling.

You start asking yourself 10,000 questions, you feel uncertain, and then you second, third, and fourth guess all your decisions and whether what you're waiting on will ever come to pass. Then, you start thinking that you need to start making drastic changes... AND DO IT NOW. My friend, what I have learned is this- you cannot solve an ongoing problem with a temporary quick-fix solution.

Remember this,
Anything done in haste will end just as quickly as it started.

Until next time, color your thoughts...beautiful 😘

End Burnout- Nurture Yourself in All Aspects of Life

 

Check out smomslife.com for calming products to help you nurture yourself in all aspects. MIND. BODY. SOUL.

When you are always busy…
going and flowing, it’s easy to think that it will all equal success in whatever you’re working on.

However, instead of success… it leads you to burnout. Try not to get caught up in working so hard to MAKE things happen, that you run yourself into the ground before you get to your destination.

Today’s Scripture

Philippians 4 : 6-7.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Until next time, color your thoughts... Beautiful

For the past 10 years, Michelle has been working as a dedicated nurse at a local hospital. While she's found fulfillment in caring for others, she's reached a point in her life where she's yearning for a change and a new challenge.

Michelle has a strong passion for music, especially gospel and soul. She's always dreamed of becoming a singer but put her dreams on hold to take care of her family and instead, pursued a stable career in nursing.

Now, in her late 30s, she's determined to pursue her long-held dream of becoming a singer-songwriter and sharing her gift with the world.

What's stopping her? Starting Over

Starting Over can feel scary. Transitioning from nursing to a music career will require her to start from scratch, which can be daunting. Juggling her nursing job, singing lessons, and pursuing gigs will be challenging, but she really wants to make it work. Oftentimes, self-doubt tries to creep in and makes her think: Am I good enough? This will never happen?

Michelle may grapple with self-doubt and fear of failure, but her passion drives her forward.

Do you have something in common with Michelle?

Meditate on Philippians 4: 6-7.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Let this verse build your resilience and empower you when you want to give up.

Remember this- Successful people hang on when everyone has let go and ask God for direction every step of the way.

Self Care + Anxiety Relief Tip:
Bring indoor plants into your space. They have a calming effect and are a great aesthetic for creating a cozy meditation corner with floor cushions.

Moral to this story:

Do not be afraid of "Starting Over." Trust your passions and abilities, while seeking guidance and inner strength through your faith and prayer. Successful people are those who persist even when faced with uncertainty and self-doubt. Rely on your faith and take each step with guidance.
