Anastasia Narinskiy talks about how motherhood shifted her identity and daily life. She describes the hard responsibility to show up no matter what, the loss of sleeping in, and a new focus on being present and available for her child's questions.
How did becoming a mother change you?
I'm definitely a different person.
Just because you're.
Busy, because you don't have an excuse in the morning, you don't get to sleep in, you don't get to take the day off from being a parent.
Can't call in sick.
You can't call in sick. You have to show up for your kid. I want my kid to know that I love him, and I'm excited to see him, and I.
Whatever he has to say, I'm, like, really interested in it. And if he has questions, I want to be able to answer them, and. And I can't do that if I'm off.
