Summary: <p>This is the first episode of Season 10 and I am so happy to be back. I talk about my first year as a mother and the lessons I've learned. I dive deeper into my reflection on my journey in the hopes that you can take something from it. Topics include: </p> <p>- Welcoming Season 10 of The City Confessions: life updates regarding my first year as a first time mom, looking back at my traumatic birth experience, and celebrating my son’s first birthday </p> <p>- Summarizing the five life lessons I’ve learned on my motherhood journey including: </p> <p>1)  Friendship changes in life transitions/milestones: they can evolve and thrive with you or they will end but that’s part of life. Everything has a season and an expiration date</p> <p>2) Relationship changes with your partner: you will go through different phases in a relationship but you have to embrace what comes in your way and see the bigger picture and ride it out  </p> <p>3) Don’t take things personally: not everything is about you and nobody is focused on you as much as you think4) Be more flexible with plans: not everything needs to be planned and scheduled5)  Release control: once you release control, you experience less stress and can have more fun when you’re spontaneous  </p> <p>- Confession and goal: I want to travel to Asia with my son and my confession is that I am scared with it being such a big trip but I want to challenge myself and overcome that fear </p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Feel free to leave a positive review on Apple Podcasts if you enjoyed this episode and be sure to share this with a friend!
