60. Motherhood, Travel, and Finding Balance: My Personal Story

Everyone thought I never wanted kids—but deep down, I always knew I would be a mom. Growing up without my parents, I was raised by my sister and other mother figures who shaped me in different ways. But I also understood that a mother’s love is irreplaceable.Through my travels and deep conversations, I often wondered: Will I ever be a mom? The answer was always yes—but not yet. I wanted to embrace motherhood with the right partner, emotional maturity, and a conscious approach.In 2021, before becoming a mom, I woke up with a phrase in my mind: "How to Be a Mom Without Being a Mom Yet." That moment set me on a journey of preparation, growth, and self-discovery.Two years later, my son was born, and suddenly, everything made sense. Motherhood is a challenge, but I truly believe that balance is possible@cata_wanderlust
