Entry 5 Things I Swore I’d Never Do As A Mom

from Motherhood Diaries · host Anne Bowers

Before kids, I had a very long list of things I’d NEVER do as a mom. Letting my kid eat a treat or snack before dinner? Never. Using my phone as a babysitter? Absolutely not. Nope.Fast forward a few years… and spoiler alert: I’ve broken almost every single one of those rules. In this episode, I get real about the messy, chaotic, and hilarious moments that made me realize motherhood isn’t about perfection—it’s about survival, flexibility, and learning to laugh at yourself along the way.If you’ve ever done something you swore you’d never do (and let’s be honest, we all have), this episode is your new best friend. Tune in, laugh, and maybe even cringe a little with me—because motherhood is messy, imperfect, and 100% relatable.Let’s open the pages✨🤍Connect with our mama bestie community over on instagram (motherhooddiaries.pod)🎧Follow & subscribe so you never miss an entry
