In today’s episode you will love hearing how Farrah met her husband in her late 30’s and became a mother after 40. We were so encouraged getting to know more about her faith walk, her weight loss journey having had gastric bypass surgery, and how she is now managing being 46 and having 3 toddlers.
Farrah has such an incredible heart and was open sharing how she struggled finding resources for women over 40 who have newly entered into motherhood. She shared that she feels as if no one talks about the physical strain of “older parenthood” after 35-40’s. It’s not going to look like what you expected with having energy like you did in your 20’s and 30’s, on top of the “getting older” exhaustion.
A common perspective she hears in the midlife mom world is “When you’re young you have the energy for kids, when you're older you have the money for it.” Farrah feels that the mentality is so different among the young moms vs midlife moms…each handles things differently between what causes you to freak out over and other things that you just don’t care to stress. She doesn’t see as much helicopter parenting and finds there is a lot of room for more grace. Must come with wisdom!
Lastly, she shares how midlife motherhood feels like a double edge sword. It is having had all the years before motherhood succeeding in your career and then waking up one morning and wondering where that woman went. It’s been a struggle as she knows that woman still exists inside her but she’s searching for what that looks like now within her heart & raising 3 toddlers.
We sure hope you’ll check back in next week when Farrah’s other episode releases where we share her family struggles, victories, coming to know the Lord and some major life triumphs.
