“I was just a college girl. Didn’t really care about much. I was just going out with friends. I feel like I’m a completely different person now. I’m a mom, I’m married. I mean, I’m obviously still myself … just a better version of myself.”

“I feel like social media puts this extra weight on all of us, especially girls. It makes you feel like you should be something that you don’t need to be.”

“Being a mom shows you how powerful you are as a woman, but also just how powerful women are in general.”

“I don’t have a particular place I want to live. Wherever family is, really. That’s where I want to be.”

“Being a mom makes me feel empowered and like a new version of myself, but at the same time you can lose yourself in it. The hardest part is finding time for yourself.”
