Tomorrow is the BIG Day!!! Time to defend my dissertation! 🤓🤓🤓 Pre-Baby preparing for this day would have included a clean space, Brain Food playlist playing on Spotify , sage burning, and reciting my presentation about 5000 times.

Post baby: Well, you can see the mess, reading my dissertation for a refresher, with wet hair, a sleepy toddler, and sneaking in a paragraph or two between playing with Elle.

The old mindset would have LOST it by now. My mindset now is that, it'll all work out and good enough with sanity is better than perfection with anxiety. Who struggles with finding balance between getting things done vs perfection debilitation???
