Overcoming mum guilt: Finding balance between career and family
October 24, 2024How Do You Adapt to Change?
November 10, 2024Know more about me…
I’m Sally, originally from Egypt and now happily settled in Brighton, England, where I live with my husband and two children. I love the tranquility here, the beauty of nature and being by the sea. Traveling, listening to music and spending time outdoors with loved ones bring me peace and joy.
After working in the travel and property industries, I found myself searching for more meaning and fulfillment in life. I wanted a sense of purpose but felt lost, leading me to live an imbalanced and unfulfilled life. I began sacrificing my own needs to please others, especially as I embraced motherhood. I thought, “This is it; my dreams and purpose are gone because I’m now a mother.”
This affected my confidence, drained my energy and strained my relationships. I felt overwhelmed, like I was losing sight of myself. I knew something had to change, and that change started by rediscovering me.
I grew up in a culture where mothers were expected to dedicate their lives solely to raising children. Working outside the home wasn’t encouraged, and pursuing personal dreams often took a back seat. But I always believed that there was more to life than just one role. I knew that mothers should have the freedom to return to work and follow their passions if that’s what they choose. I longed for flexibility — to be a present mother, pursue my dreams and find a balance that worked for me.
Thanks to coaching, I discovered my vision of a peaceful, balanced life and slowly, my transformation began. I gained awareness of my skills, strengths, values and beliefs, which allowed me to direct my energy toward what truly mattered. Step by step, my confidence grew and I learned to set boundaries, protect my time and prioritize my well-being.
Now, I can say, I live a life that’s balanced, fulfilled and full of gratitude.
My passion is to help other mothers navigate their own transitions with confidence and clarity. I believe every mother deserves the freedom to work and pursue her dreams, without losing the joy of being present with her children. I’m here to support women in finding their balance, because I know how transformative it can be when you honor both your dreams and your role as a mother.
