Relax Lang Mom
Do more of what you love and feel great
With this blog, I want to reach out to all the moms out there, who, inundated by the perfect mom of ads, magazines, and social media, try to be all things and ends up depleted, exhausted, unhappy, depressed. In the search of being a perfect mom, we miss the fun of watching our kids grow, leaving our marriage and relationships unattended. And everything becomes an unending list to check off. We produce picture-perfect homes, gleamingly clean kitchen, Instagram worthy food that we forget to celebrate little successes like finally cleaning that window you’ve been meaning to clean this whole summer, or getting your husband to fix the dripping sink, or your son fixing his bed on his own without nagging.
