In this Supermom Short, Amy Grace encourages moms to develop a clear vision for their lives, both as mothers and individuals. She shares the importance of being intentional with your motherhood journey and not simply "winging it." Drawing from her recent trip to Crested Butte, Amy uses the metaphor of snowboarding through a snowstorm to highlight how having a clear vision allows you to move forward with confidence, even when life feels chaotic. Amy emphasizes the significance of understanding what type of mother you want to be, what values you want to instill in your children, and what other aspects of your identity (beyond motherhood) you want to nurture. She encourages listeners to reflect and journal about their vision for themselves and their families to set clear, intentional goals.

Key Takeaways:

• Clear Vision: Knowing what kind of mom you want to be and how you want your kids to grow up gives you a road map to make intentional choices.
• Balance in Motherhood: It's important to nurture other aspects of your identity outside of being a mom, such as being a partner, entrepreneur, or pursuing personal passions.
• Intentionality: Taking the time to reflect on your vision helps you prioritize what matters most and build a life aligned with your values.
• Self-Reflection: Journaling about your vision for motherhood and life beyond it helps clarify what truly matters and sets you on the path to success.
• Long-Term Perspective: Preparing for the future, such as your children eventually leaving home, means nurturing all parts of yourself now.

Key Quotes:

• “When we have a clear vision for where we’re going, we show up in motherhood with more confidence and intention.” – Amy Grace
• “You're not just a mom; you're a whole, magnificent person. Nurture the other parts of your identity too.” – Amy Grace
• “Having a vision for your life and motherhood isn’t about perfection; it’s about creating a life that aligns with your values.” – Amy Grace
• “The more clear you are on your vision, the easier it is to make decisions and take intentional action.” – Amy Grace
• “Give yourself permission to develop other parts of who you are, so when the kids leave, you still know who you are.” – Amy Grace
