WHY I CHOSE TO GET A DIVORCE. ⁠
.⁠
Now I know you may think - "Amy what on earth, why are you sharing something so personal?" - Well, the answer is simple, because of the lesson I learnt through it. ⁠
.⁠
This picture was taken 2 years ago in JHB by one of my best friends @lerissakempphotography . When I was in JHB while still married I felt alive, happy, anxiety-free and joyful. When I came back to Cape Town and saw this photo, I burst into tears thinking why can't I be this happy at home, why I am gripped with anxiety and having panic attacks knowing I was going home. ⁠
.⁠
Simply put, I was miserable, photography and my job was the only thing making me as happy as possible during work hours. I just kept thinking, what example am I setting for Levi to see his mom unhappy, having to pull the car over while driving home just to breathe. This wasn't what I wanted for my life and for my son's life. ⁠
.⁠
Now I have to put a disclaimer here saying that being unhappy was not the only reason for my decision to get a divorce, months of therapy helped me get to that point BUT what I am trying to say is right now in my life, I can fully say that I am now feeling like this photograph in Cape Town, I am happy and joyful and only have anxiety when I am about to do a dance competition. lol. ⁠
.⁠
By leaving my ex and making this decision to get a divorce, showed Levi a new and happy mom and that was the best decision I have ever made. ⁠
. ⁠
The point I am trying to make is that you need to find and do the things that you know will make you happy. For me, its taking photos of babies being born and dancing the Cha-Cha-Cha ( which while I was married I was never allowed to do). ⁠
.⁠
What makes you happy? Are you doing it? If not, why. ⁠

Let's talk about mom guilt: ⁠
.⁠
It is a known fact that most moms have mom guilt. Be it feeling guilty that you are not with your baby becuase you have to work OR feeling guilty that you want to work and create the career of your dreams. ⁠
.⁠
No matter what guilty you are feeling here is something to help calm those feelings. I was listening to a podcast by @rachelhollis and she spoke about meeting mothers in Ethiopia, When she told them about mom guilty they all had no idea why moms around the world feel like that. ⁠
.⁠
She went on to explain that in Ethiopia women HAVE TO WORK and they don't understand why we would feel guilty. They are the ones that provide for their families, they are the ones to feed, clothe and ake sure their babies are safe. Are we in South Africa not doing the same thing? ⁠
.⁠
Rest those feelings of guilt, you are an amazing mom and doing what you have to for the time being and making a way for the future of your child. ⁠
.⁠
Chin-up Mamma you are doing a great job. ⁠
