I didn’t think that at all until you said it and then I was like…. You did heaps of mumming in the 22 minutes that you showed us. Don’t worry. You are a great mum.

In any third world country, where are no diapers, kids do not have problems with potty. Babies as little as 1 year old are slowly trained to sit on potty.

I really appreciate how you fully accept the mom part of your identity while still focusing on other passions. It doesn't have to be all or nothing and that's a great reminder!

I am normally a silent viewer, but wanted to share that I am also working on a manuscript and I find it really encouraging and inspiring to hear that other people are doing it too. Most people in my circle aren't readers, let alone writers, so I appreciate you sharing your experience!

I would like to thank you so much! We are both in very similar times in our journey of life and your videos have seriously helped me a lot. I'm so happy that you are finding new hobbies and things that make you, you! I'm just started this journey for myself and I'm so happy I have your channel to guide me on different things that I could do and try. You're amazing! Keep growing and have a great journey!

I really hope you see this comment as I think it might really help you in your hypermobility journey. I got the same diagnosis after years of chronic pain, but I came across pain reprocessing therapy (PRT), which led me to watch Howard Schubiner's Talks at Google on Chronic Pain, which led me to read Howard Schubiner's book, "Unlearn Your Pain,"...and in 3 weeks, I'm 80% better and on the road to a full recovery from a life of pain. I wanted to tell you because I've been following you for a long time and I want to shout about this from the rooftops to anyone suffering or who has a hypermobility diagnosis like I did. Schubiner says that chronic pain happens because your brain has been sending signals of pain, anxiety, fatigue, etc. when dealing with stress, emotions, fear, etc. that reinforce the same neural pathways of sending pain. This is backed by neuroscience and there are really crazy interesting studies of the brain and pain, which he references in his books and talks. Please check him out! It can't hurt!

I never comment on KZbin. This would be my first time. I am a fairly new mom and I love how you incorporate your hobbies with motherhood. My husband has been writing a novel for years and it is very dear to him. There’s something exciting about creating a your own. Keep up the good work. Writing a novel is something to be proud of no matter what happens.

I’m grateful for your journey in every regard! i’m simultaneously finding facets of me outside of motherhood, and it’s refreshing to see your different hobbies. Your channel and Embers and Ash are inspiration to me to continue trying new things that fill my cup and help me be a more present mother! I’m amazed at how kind you are to even the trolls, what a queen 👑❤️

I actually think how the kettle looks now its burnt, gives it more character. I feel like you can imagine it's been well used and loved by people throughout the years, or maybe that's too deep and I need to stop reading books 😂 I'm sorry you get comments about being seen as 'not-mumming' enough just because you don't film all of that type of content. Or talking about your book a lot. Please ignore comments like that. We are so proud of you, we understand you are a full time mum even if we're not seeing it 100% of the time. We love that you've found something you're passionate about and love hearing about your journey with writing. This is your channel, your life. We're just here for the ride ❤

All of the ones that have been here forever (like me) have watched you and your channel grow! I love to see it evolve and I love to see your hobbies come through and be out into this world. I’m currently in the trenches with a baby and I love watching your channel as a pick me up. No matter the content.

Im not into book stuff but its so great to see your passion for it! I dont feel you talk about it too much and definitely dont feel u are trying to sell it to us. Things change over the yrs as your kids grow through their seasons of life and u change and grow with them and find yourself and your interests again and new passions. We need to have them too as our kids get older and independent. I love all the home and garden stuff u do. Dont change anything ❤

I completely resonate with you on needing an identity outside of motherhood. sometimes I shame myself when I feel like I’m being selfish or not finding enough fulfillment in my role as a mother, but it’s really important to feel like a human being too. I always remind myself he is only little for so long and I will soak it up too, but I have to feel like a human even in these years. having personal projects and goals gives us purpose. being a mama is a full time job and motherhood doesn’t have to be what fills our cup all the time. its valuable and valid to have other things that fulfill us.

Megan, I feel as if you are speaking directly to me about finding identity outside of motherhood! I have been a SAHM for 11 years, it was my entire identity for that time. Now my little one is going to kinder this fall and I will have much more time on my hands. I'm looking to find my identity by going back to teaching again. After 11 years, I hope to be back in the classroom and be mom and teacher, not just mom. Your writing, my teaching; here's to new beginnings for us!

And also as an aspiring writer and creator - just thank you for sharing! Relatability makes us feel so seen ♥️

As a Mother who can't have anymore children, it's refreshing to watch a mother who is finding their own identity as themselves. I've watched many KZbinrs over the years starting from when I had my son in 2019 and they are still pumping out kid after kid and I find them so unrelatable now. Your content is amazing, it's made me try hobbies I never would have imagined doing. I grew flowers this year thanks to you. Please don't be discouraged by the comments because you're amazing xx

Finding identity outside of motherhood is such a game changer! I’m so glad you found writing again! And idk about you but seeing someone so passionate about something even if it’s not something I’m doing is contagious. I’ve found it encouraging to continue finding myself outside of motherhood. It’s so hard to “win” on the internet. And I feel like people are extra critical these days.

I started to declutter when I was just desperate to simplify my life. The most difficult thing for me was feeling guilty over wedding gifts. But I allowed myself to enjoy my living space. I no longer wanted my home to be a storage space for guilt clutter. I'm finally confident enough in my journey that I can boldly let family know that I don't want any gifts for the holidays. Just quality time is all the gift I need. The first Christmas I did no gifts it was so freeing to not have to figure out where things go. I don't have kids though. But I still suggest freeing yourself of your guilt clutter.

To salvage the copper kettle, cook something tomato based, like tomato soup (Campbell’s is pretty inexpensive) put the kettle in the hot soup and it should clean the copper pretty well. Learned this when growing up with copper bottom pans.

Couple of things. I appreciate hearing about your book journey. As a new mom that had to step away from the business she built and watch my husband rock it from afar, i am also struggling with this season of identity. My version of imposter syndrome is all mixed up with feeling like a bad woman for not trying to juggle work and home making when i have no outside help and cannot swing childcare even for parts of the day or week. My job used to be helping others and now I'm only here to help my little guy. It feels equally wonderful to get to focus on him and also like i should be doing more. Even though your journey is so different from mine, i get to be motivated by you and apply the lessons your leaning to my own version of life. Secondly. I'm worried about your kettle. I know no details on it but can't not share... Hubby gifted me this beautiful chopper kettle that he felt was safe since it was lined. I had a mom intuition moment and decided to test the kettle water with a standard heavy metals strip test (off amazon) and it came back with elevated levels that would be toxic. Turns out that while the lining is tin, the welds are poisonous. My fingers are crossed for you that your beautiful kettle is not the same and that you can figure out how to save it. I can only think of a lmon juice and baking soda paste soak and scrub. But that's just a lay-woman thought. Not anything I've known to work from a similar situation. Longest comment ever. Lastly, you rock. Love you lots. Thanks for giving me a friend in this super isolated time in my life.
