Welcome to "Beak & Quill": a blog site that dives into the unfiltered and unpredictable journey of a mid-40s working mom facing an existential crisis. Join me as I embark on a quest to discover my true self amidst the whirlwind of responsibilities at home and at work while trying to maintain a household, raise a respectful and responsible teen, be a good wife, pay the bills, stay healthy, and not become institutionalized in the process. I want to confront the ever-present "BS" that life throws our way and create a supportive community for sharing our thoughts and experiences. I know I'm not alone here!
Finding My Path
Life in our mid-40s can feel like a roller coaster ride - a blend of triumphs, challenges, and the ever-elusive search for meaning. I stand at this crossroad, questioning my purpose and searching for the thing or things that will bring me peace and happiness. I hope you stay with me while I share in my revelations, struggles, and moments of clarity. Through writing and open conversations, let's explore the beauty and confusion of self-discovery, learning to embrace the chaos that comes with it.
Staying Sane Navigating the Maze of Responsibilities
The pressures of work and the complexities of running a household can often overwhelm us, making it easy to lose ourselves in the daily grind. One of the primary goals of this blog site is to foster a sense of community. By sharing experiences and engaging in open dialogue, we can hopefully find solace in knowing that we are not alone in our struggles. I'm eagerly searching for strategies to find balance, boost productivity, and foster personal growth while juggling the overwhelming responsibilities on my shoulders. I hope that sharing my experiences and thoughts will bring you some clarity and levity at the same time. Let's acknowledge the challenges head-on and develop a support network to help us navigate through life's demands. By sharing our stories, we will encourage each other to step outside our comfort zones, accepting that it's okay to be a work in progress. Let it all out!!
