I can’t stop watching those AI videos of random facts about fruits, skincare and other stuff. It’s like Cocomelon for adults.

Real luxury is the ability to have a slow morning if you want it, enjoy a good conversation without rush, eat well, have good health, and a warm home. Brand names and flashy things are nice but they're not luxury.

Breastfeeding mothers need around 3,000 calories a day. Under-eating can be detrimental to milk supply and material nutrient stores. Think whole, ancestral nourishment: - eggs + butter + fruit - meat or stew + roots/rice - full-fat dairy - fermented foods - nourishing snacks (fruit, honey, cheese) - intentional fats + salt Milk is made from nutrients.

Before kids, I thought I was at capacity. After kids, I realized I had no idea what I was capable of. You think bigger because you’re no longer just living for yourself. You become ruthlessly efficient because you have no choice. You stop wasting time on things that don’t matter because you can see what actually does. You laugh more than you ever have. Kids are hilarious. Seriously. And yes, it’s hard. But the hardness isn’t meaningless suffering. Your deepest, darkest parts get dragged into the light. The parts you’ve been avoiding your whole life. The trauma. The patterns. The brokenness. Kids don’t break you, but rather they reveal what was already broken so you can finally heal it. So no, babies don’t suck. They expand you.

I’m so in love with this quote—

“They teach you everything in life except how to live without them.”

“what will cure all your problems?” me:

Our grandmothers didn’t talk about nervous system regulation. They lived it. Sewing, baking slowly, folding by hand. Repetition, quiet focus, hands busy, body safe. Calm was handmade.
