"I see other moms who struggle and think that everything is supposed to be easy. Heck, I was one of them. But it's not all chocolates and roses. Life is hard. And we can find the strength to hit back when life tries to take us down." - Jenni Nather
Do you ever feel like you're juggling a million things at once, from keeping the family ship afloat to squeezing in a bit of "me time"?
Moms need support. We need to know that we aren't the only mom on the planet who struggles with things that should be natural. None of it is natural. That's why this book is here-to remind you that you're not alone in the chaos of motherhood.
Modern Moms of Martial Arts is a kick-butt collection of stories from moms just like you, who also happen to be kicking it on the dojo floor. These are the tales of laundry warriors and kitchen ninjas who've found their sanctuary in the world of martial arts.
Within these pages, you'll meet moms who defy the odds, finding time for training amidst the chaos of motherhood. They share laughs, sweat, and victories not just with each other but with their kiddos and grand-kiddos, too. From mastering new moves alongside their little ones to cheering them on as they conquer their own challenges, these moms (and grandmoms!) are the ultimate multitaskers.
But hey, it's not all kicks and giggles. Contributing moms get real about the struggles too - dealing with the occasional "mom guilt," facing personal battles head-on, and balancing the demands of family life with their own needs. But here's the beauty of it all: they've got each other's backs, no judgments, just support and solidarity.
So, if you've ever felt like you're alone in the mom hustle, think again. We are your tribe, your cheer squad, your reminder that it's okay to put yourself first sometimes. Dive into these stories, soak up the wisdom, and let the warrior mama within you rise!
You don't stop being a martial artist when you step off the mats, just like you don't stop being a mom when you step on the mats. You have been doing it all and making it work, but let's work together to lift each other up.
