Sometimes “locking in” looks like sitting in the sun and remembering that your life is also meant to be lived, not just optimized, monetized, and turned into proof that you’re worthy.
You HAVE to enjoy life after you get off work or you gone feel like you slaving away. Like PLEASE go have drinks on a random Wednesday. YES do that beach picnic too. That’s right, go practice pottery on a Tuesday evening. That go to work, go home, go to work, go home shit is 0/10
Yeah it really does take 2 years to be your old self again and even then you will never be like that again but I love to think I evolved and learned even more with this experience
Ok now I feel fully back to myself (I say this now but watch in Nov I’ll feel more confident) but omg I can’t believe I told people I was back to normal last Aug when I was still breastfeeding and regulating back to normal
