I think motherhood changed the way I look at money.

Because there was a time when I thought the goal was to make as much as possible.

More hours.
More income.
More opportunities.

And then I had kids.

Now I find myself asking a completely different question:

What is my time worth?

Because my kids aren’t going to remember what my paycheck said.

They’re going to remember who was there.

Who made breakfast on a random Tuesday morning.
Who heard the ridiculous story they absolutely needed to tell me.
Who was sitting on the couch when they came home.
Who watched the little things they did that nobody else would think twice about.

And those moments are happening right now.

Not someday.

Right now.

The truth is, there are seasons where working outside the home is necessary. There are families who need two incomes. There are moms who genuinely love their careers. There are a million different circumstances, and I would never pretend there is one right way to raise a family.

But for me, personally, I have had to realize that I don't just want to make a living.

I want to be present for the life I'm working so hard to build.

Because a job can replace an employee.

A company can fill a position.

A paycheck comes and goes.

But my kids get one childhood.

And I get one chance to be their mom while they're little.

One day these mornings will be gone. The sticky hands will be bigger. The little voices will sound different. The bedtime stories won't be needed anymore.

And honestly?

I'd rather have a little less money and a whole lot more of them.

Because when I look back on this season of my life, I don't think I'm going to wish I answered more emails.

I'm going to wish I soaked up the moments I thought I had more time for.

Day 4 🤎

Today I used the good skincare.

You know the products you buy and then somehow convince yourself you need to “save” them for a special occasion?

Yeah… I’m done with that. 😂

I’m realizing that taking care of myself doesn’t need to wait for a special occasion.

I am the occasion. ✨

Day THREE 🤎

Today, I chose myself by sitting on the beach for a few hours and doing absolutely nothing.

No expectations.
No itinerary.
No rushing to the next thing.
No feeling guilty for not being productive.

Just me, my sunscreen, the sunshine, and the waves.

And honestly? I think sometimes choosing yourself looks a lot less like doing MORE and a lot more like giving yourself permission to simply BE.

I didn’t need to accomplish anything today.

I just needed to breathe.

What did choosing yourself look like for you today?

DAY TWO! 🤎

I committed to making time for my skincare morning AND night for the next 30 days.

No matter how busy I am. No matter how tired I am. I’m giving myself those few minutes because I deserve to take care of the skin I’ve spent years neglecting.

It only takes a few minutes, but choosing myself consistently? That’s the part I’m working on.

What’s your Day Two commitment to yourself?

DAY ONE 🤎

I started BIG!

I’m going to the beach. Without my kids. 🏖️😂

YUP. You read that right!

I’m going on a 4 day women’s retreat! Four whole days of pouring into myself spiritually and getting a mental AND physical break from being needed from the second I open my eyes until I close them.

For 4 days, I get to close out all the tabs in my head. No one asking me for snacks. No one needing me to find something. No mental checklist running 47 items deep.
Just time to breathe, reset, reconnect with God, and pour into ME.

And honestly, this feels like the perfect way to start my 30 Day Choose Yourself Challenge.

Now tell me... what are YOU doing for yourself on Day One?

If you have no idea where to start, I’ll drop some ideas in the comments! ✨

I’m Allison. I’m a mama, a wife, officially in my 30s, and somewhere along the way… I put Allison at the very bottom of the to-do list.

For the last 10 years, I’ve poured everything into everyone else. My kids, my husband, my home, my work… and somehow taking care of myself always became the thing I could “get to later.”

Well… later is here. 😂

My skin has always been a struggle. My hair needs some love. My sleep is a mess. My mental health has taken a backseat. And honestly, I’ve neglected my body and myself in a lot of ways because there was always something (or someone) who needed me first.

So I’m changing that.

I’m starting a 30-Day Choose Yourself Challenge. 🤎

Not a weight-loss challenge. Not a “wake up at 5 AM and become a completely different person” challenge.

Just 30 days of intentionally choosing ourselves....
our bodies, our skin, our health, our rest, our confidence, our joy… whatever that looks like for YOU.

Every day, I’m going to share one way I chose myself that day, and I would LOVE for you to join me.

Tell me one way you’re choosing yourself today. Maybe it’s getting ready instead of staying in pajamas. Going for a walk. Washing your hair. Going to bed early. Drinking your water. Taking 20 minutes alone. Making the appointment you’ve been putting off.

Whatever it is... choose you.

Let’s build a community of women who are more than just the girl on the sidelines of her own life. Women who are taking up space, taking care of themselves, and becoming a better version of themselves... not just for everyone else, but for themselves, too.

Because when we take better care of ourselves, we have more of ourselves to give to the people we love.

We can do anything for 30 days, right?

And this one? This one is about to be FUN. ✨

Come choose yourself with me. 🤎

I normally love watching scary movies with my kids because afterward I can reassure them, “It’s just make-believe. That could never really happen.”

But watching M3GAN hits a little differently now.

Because the scary part isn’t really the creepy robot girl dancing around killing people 😂 It’s the idea behind her.

AI that learns.
AI that adapts.
AI that becomes more capable than the people who created it.
AI that we give more and more control to because it’s convenient.

And then I started thinking about all the actual people working in AI who are now publicly warning that we may not fully understand where this technology is headed.

Researchers are leaving AI companies and openly talking about the possibility of losing control of increasingly advanced systems. Some are saying the next decade could be a critical turning point.

And suddenly I’m sitting there watching M3GAN like…

Wait.

This isn’t that far-fetched anymore.

Obviously, we aren't one software update away from a murderous robot child showing up in our living room. But the bigger question the movie raises feels very real:

What happens when we create something that becomes more capable than we are, and we don't fully understand how to control it?

That’s the part that actually scares me.

Because usually I can tell my kids, “Don’t worry. It’s just a movie.”

This time I found myself thinking…

I really hope it stays one.

I remember going to the grocery store when I was little and they would always give out little cookies at the bakery.

Now when I take my kids, they hand out fruit and let me just say… I absolutely LOVE it. And so do the kids!

I wish more stores did this. I mean, really… it makes sense! They can use fruit that’s getting a little ripe so it doesn’t go to waste AND there are fewer screaming kids in the grocery store because they got a little treat. 😂

Honestly, everybody wins. More stores need to get on board with this!

The last night before your baby’s birthday hits different. 🥹

Because tonight, you’re laying down a baby.

One last time, you rock them.
One last time, you stare at those tiny hands.
One last time, you hug them to your chest.

Because tomorrow, they wake up a toddler.

Still your baby, obviously. But somehow bigger. Somehow changed. Another year added to a life that feels like it just started yesterday.

So tonight, soak it in.

Hold them a little longer. Kiss those cheeks a few extra times. Memorize the way they fit against your chest.

Because tomorrow they’ll wake up one year older…

and you’ll wonder how time had the audacity to move this fast.
