I Could Not Make Peace with not Being a Mother
To all of you out there who are thinking - “This was not the sequencing [of life events] I would have chosen AND I am choosing to take steps into the future I desire.”
We see you. 🫂
Voices From The Community
Sometimes, the hardest part of the journey is sitting with the grief, acknowledging the feelings, and giving yourself space to process. 💔
Especially as an older single navigating decisions like egg freezing or considering becoming a single mother by choice, know that your emotions are valid and processing it all takes time. Don’t push yourself to make a decision quickly. Be gentle as you come to terms with this next stage of your life.
This was not the plan
This was not the plan- said every single mother by choice.
8 Things Jewish Adoptees Want You To Know
What are some things that Jewish adoptees and families wish their communities knew?
This eye-opening resource comes from the Adoption and Jewish Identity Project @adoptionjewishidentity which was borne out of research they did, from surveys and oral histories they took from a diverse group of Jewish adoptees raised in American Jewish families.
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room.
Many people consider adoption not because they ran out of options.
They adopt because they want to give a child a loving home.

Self-Care Is Sometimes Hard
We think that self-care is about manicures and massages and walks in nature.
And it is.
But it is also sometimes about doing hard things. Having hard conversations. Dealing with people who you don't agree with. Attending an event when you would rather stay home.
Our advice - especially when things are rough?
Think about the those things and see what needs work. It can be transformative to focus on inner work when the world is spinning out of control. Because you can't make other people do what you want, when you want it.
But you can change yourself and the way you react the events around you.
