Modern motherhood is so much more than immaculate social media feeds. It's conscious parenting, intentional living, and staying woke (not just for ourselves but) in an effort to equip the next generation. And now more than ever it's important we pass these ideas to our children and show them better ways of living and how to vibrate higher. It's important to show them new ways to overcome the statistics and live longer and with immense purpose.
Whether it simply be through embracing self-love and their blackness, to minimalism, veganism or alternative forms of education, these mamas are intentionally and beautifully blazing trails in these directions. Do yourself a favor, follow along, and if at all possible, follow suit.
