Happy + healthy on the journey to motherhood

“You are in charge of how you react to the people and events in your life." Get it, girl. The journey to motherhood is all about taking ownership of what you can control, and having confidence and trust in the rest. So much of motherhood is making peace with what is out of your hands. Deep breaths, mama. You've got this. XO, TeamMotherly P.S. Check out the products that Motherly's mamas used to conceive.
