We weren't meant to raise our children alone, Mama. So we are here to give you a helping hand, share a recipe, chat about our insights of Motherhood and give you access to experts in mother care, birth, pregnancy and postpartum. Welcome to the FYC Village.
Motherhood is a wild ride—equal parts magical and maddening. Between the midnight feeding marathons, nappy blowouts, and that unrelenting mental load (who else remembers every family birthday?), it’s no wonder you’re craving a little "me time." Well, grab a book, mama, because reading isn’t just an escape—it’s a legit hormonal hack for your mental health. Yep, science says so.
Let’s be honest, there are days when motherhood feels like trying to juggle too many balls while balancing on a tightrope. Some days, it all feels manageable. Other days? One misplaced toy or a persistent whine can send us over the edge. I’ve been there, and I’m guessing you have too. Just recently, I found myself in the thick of it, raising my voice at my child and instantly feeling the pangs of guilt.
If you’ve ever experienced a moment like this, you’re not alone. Let’s unpack those tough feelings together and explore how to move forward with compassion for yourself and your child.
Perimenopause is no walk in the park. The fluctuating hormones, rollercoaster emotions, and brain fog can make it feel like you’re navigating a whole new version of yourself. But here’s the good news, you’re not alone, and there are practical ways to help you feel more balanced through this transition.

Motherhood is a beautiful mess of love, learning, and, let’s be honest, a fair bit of chaos. From the moment you welcome your little one into the world, you’re bombarded with advice, opinions, and expectations. And when it comes to setting boundaries and building strong connections, it can sometimes feel like you’re caught between “too much” and “not enough.”
But here’s the thing, parenting isn’t about getting it perfect—it’s about showing up with love and intention, even when the going gets tough.
