My New Life

Multitasking has an entirely new meaning for me in 2020. I have my hands in a few different jars right now and I see this becoming my new normal. I can’t believe I ever thought having one child was hectic. 1 is 1 and 2 is 20 is the realest statement! I have a lot in my life that I am trying to take the reigns on and make sure I find pieces of happiness in everything that I do. All of the things that I stressed over with my first child no longer faze me. I feel far more capable than I ever have and I’ve realized that I am better at time management when my plate is full.

Starting a business 2 weeks postpartum and with an active toddler is probably the biggest risk I’ve taken. But becoming a mom of 2 has made me feel like I can do anything. It’s been about 5 weeks since the launch of Myomi Skin, my skincare brand selling my wonderful whipped Shea butter. I have been so amazed by the support I’ve received and I love that my product is so loved by everyone. It’s easy to have an idea, but bringing it to life requires time and work. I know this, we all know this, but the drive to see this through came from being a mother. I can’t quite articulate HOW but I suppose I felt piling more on my plate was no sweat because I’m already busy. The idea of building something on my own that will grow makes my imagination run wild. I’ve had a tremendous amount of support from my friends and family and may not have followed through with starting my business had it not been for that support.

I believe in my product, first and foremost, because I make it myself.

I use it, my husband uses it and we put it on our babies. Nothing I’ve used in my life has made my skin so soft and even. And it LASTS. After the birth of both of my babies, my skin became abnormally dry. With my first child, I would use raw Shea butter but struggled with easily spreading it on my skin because it can be very stiff in its raw form. I wanted to create a whipped Shea that’s user friendly and smells amazing.

At the end of my day, I want to feel accomplished and fulfilled. I’ve stated this many times but want to express it again because it’s important:

Being a Mom isn’t enough for me.

I knew this 2 years ago and I know it now. During the first week of my business launch, I was busier than ever before; but I was so happy. Stressed and frazzled a bit, but so very happy.

I love the trajectory that I’m on and I feel certain that I cannot be stopped.
