I honestly don't know where to begin with this, or what the purpose of this blog is. So I will kinda go over things and hopefully in the end, there will be a point in all of this.
I am Michelle, 30 years old, happily married, current SAHM of two (6 (almost 7) year old & 2 year old)daughters. I have lived in the Coachella Valley all of my life. Within the last year, diagnosed with hypothyroidism, currently trying to start the proper management of said lazy thyroid.
I've always struggled with self-identity. As crazy as it sounds, I don't know who I am. I am familiar with all my labels; mommy, wifey, sister, daughter, friend, etc. But I don't know who I am outside of those labels. You could say I lost myself somewhere in my journey of life. And honestly, I don't think I ever found out who I was/am as an individual. I've always been part of a unit, and I've been okay with that. Never knew what it's like to be lonely. Always have had someone to rely on. But as I get older, I long to know who I am and what my story is.
My intention of all of this; is to document how I will learn to love myself. I've never been happy in my own skin. Being that I do have two small daughters, I want them to learn how to love themselves and be comfortable in who they are. I truly believe you must learn to love yourself before you can accept love from others.
